Sage MAS 90 2009 Tax Tables available now

Posted By: Wayne Schulz    



MAS 90 and MAS 200 payroll tax table updates were released today by Sage and are available for immediate download.

With updates to the Federal tax table and 26 separate states, you should download and apply the tax tables prior to entering your first payroll for 2009.

Remember : You must print W2 forms using the old tax tables in order for the Social Security wage base to be accurate on your 2008 W-2 forms.

Most users find it helpful to make a backup of their 2008 final payroll data to a test company in Sage MAS 90 or 200. This can be accomplished in version 4.x+ through the company maintenance option in Library Master. Versions prior to 4.x must use the “File” – “Run” – “SVDATA” command to make a copy of MAS 90 data.

UPDATE 12-23-08: There is an IRD for 2008 which has just been issued by Sage and may be downloaded from here.
