Release 5.6a for Sage Classic, Sage Premier and Sage 200c VIP will be available to download from the Sage VIP Customer Zone as from 10 March 2021.

Premier ESS 10.5 and Premier HR 21.3.0.1, which is compatible with Release 5.6a, will however only be available as from 12 March 2021.

All Total Solution users should therefore update Premier Payroll to Release 5.6a, only once the Premier ESS 10.5 and Premier HR 21.3.0.1 software becomes available.

Important: All 3 applications must be updated consecutively to ensure successful integration.

Note: If you update your Premier Payroll to Release 5.6a while Premier ESS and HR are on incompatible releases, integrations will fail resulting in failed transactions and manual corrections due to incompatibility.

We will notify you here on Sage City, as soon as the software becomes available.
