  • Both links take me to the same place... How to I download the PR6024T?

  • in reply to CindyLou

    Occasionally we see where that occurs and cleaning out the Cache will clear it up. However, you can either search for KB ID 104179, or use the link in the Description section of the informational article to get to the PR6024T. I am also working on adding it to the download of the Sage 100 Payroll 2.20.1 document.

    The issue is that KB 104179 only has the PR6024T pdf and not the link to the actual program.

    Kathleen, that link only gives you the PDF.  KB search does the same

    Thank you Kathleen

    I also was able to download it. Thanks!

    Thanks, I got the hot fix.

  • I am curious whether the Sage end-user has to manually track these numbers or will Sage automatically cut off the amounts at the maximum rate? The way I read this it seems like the users have to manually calculate this but I'm not sure. Perhaps somewhere else in the KB article Sage was more explicit?
