Enter appropriate code: F- Federal Government, S  - State and Local Government Employer, T – Tax Exempt Employer, Y – State and Local Tax Exempt Employer or N- None Apply.

 

Solution:

Sage has an IRD (Interim Release Disk)

The 2011 Q4 Interim Release contains the Year End program changes for Electronic Reporting and Payroll.

Note: Please read the 2011 Q4 IRD instructions for the steps to install the IRD properly.

This IRD applies to the following Sage 100 ERP (MAS 90 and 200) versions only:

Sage ERP MAS 90 and MAS 200 Level 420, 4.30 SU 17-23, 4.40 PU 1-7
Sage ERP MAS 90 MAS 200 Extended Enterprise Suite versions 1.3 and 1.4
Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL Level 3.74
Note: Do not install this IRD for the following versions. The year-end program changes are already included or are not applicable.

Sage ERP MAS 200 SQL 4.45
Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 4.50
Product Update 8 for Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 4.40 (4.40.0.08)
Also note: If using Payroll Federal & State eFiling and Reporting for Sage ERP MAS90 and 200 version 4.50.0.0 or 4.50.1.0, install program fix PR4060-T. This program fix corrects the issue in Federal eFiling and Reporting where the employee e-mail address is missing in the W2/1099 Preparer. Also updates Federal eFiling and Reporting with new federal tax codes for Puerto Rico and new local codes for Ohio. Product Update 2 for Sage ERP MAS 90 and 200 version 4.50 (4.50.2.0) includes this correction.
