I can't log in multiple times with the same User ID.
|
January 2010
|
You are seeing a message something like this:
Error: the user ID entered is already logged in at <company_name>.
|
|
The latest software update permits each User ID to be logged in to 21st Century Payroll only once. Each person in the office who works on 21st Century Payroll needs a separate, unique User ID. Go to System/User IDs and assign each person in your office their own User ID to log in with. Passwords are not required.

How do I complete Payroll for 2010? Where is Close Year?
|
You don't ever "Close Year" in 21st Century Payroll. (There is no Close Year command.) The system is designed to let you pass
seamlessly from one year to the next in all modules, including Payroll.
To wrap up 2010, just
finish processing all your 2010 payrolls
and any necessary adjustments.
Make a backup of the company, label it clearly as EOY 2010, and put it in a safe place.
Then you simply start
running 2011 payrolls in 2011.
What is "Smart Tax?"
What are "Prior Year Adjustments?"

|
How do I start Payroll for 2011?
|
- Add the new year 2011 in Accounts/Financial Calendar
- Download and install the new tax update.
- Verify that you have the current tax table by going to Help/About on the 21st Century Payroll menu.
- Verify that the Default date on the menu is the date of your first pay run in the new year.
- When you start up Calculate Payroll for the company, a popup box asks for the Current Payroll year. Enter 2011 for the current Payroll year.
|
When should I print W-2s?
|
|
Once you complete all 2010 payrolls and adjustments, produce 2010 W-2s at your convenience — even after you begin running 2011 payrolls.

How do I get names to print correctly on the 2007 W-2 forms?
|
|
Employee name format.
If you prepare W-2s from 21st Century Payroll
on paper or electronically, enter your employee names in Payroll/Configure/Employees in the following format:
LastName, Suffix | FirstName MiddleInitialOrName
Examples:
de la Cruz, Jr | Martin
O'Hara | Thomas
Bates | Norman Xavier
Poe-Knickerbocker | Jane
McPherson | Donald P
|
SSA instructions specify entering the suffix (Jr, Sr, III, and so forth) only if it appears on the employee’s Social Security card.
The employee name on W-2s must also agree with the spelling of the name as shown on the individual's Social Security card.

Single-user version
If you have a single-user version of the 21st Century program and installed from a workstation to another network computer (server) and use the program from the workstation, then this situation would be expected and you may disregard this message.
Multi-user version
If you have a multi-user version, then all computers that contain the 21st Century program and/or data should have the Pervasive Software installed and active at all times. You should check <computer_name> to make sure the Pervasive Software is installed and functioning properly.
