Repairing the payroll balances

During the repair for variances, Sage 100 Contractor recalculates the quarterly and year-to-date totals for Social Security wages, Medicare wages, and gross wages from the payroll records assigned status 2-Computed or status 3-Posted. Additionally, Sage 100 Contractor recalculates the quarterly totals of each payroll calculation and runs an audit.

To repair the payroll balances:

  1. Open 5-3-7 Payroll Audit.
  2. If you want to audit and repair a closed payroll year, select Audit/Repair payroll for the prior year (xxxx), where xxxx is the prior closed year.
  3. Click the Repair button.

Note: The repair only recalculates the balances based on how the payroll calculations are set up. It cannot repair data resulting from incorrectly set up payroll calculations.
