Entering third-party sick pay

Consider the following points before entering third-party pay:

For third-party sick pay to be marked on W-2s, you need to select the Third-Party Sick Pay check box on the Compensation tab of the 5-2-1 Employees window.
Before saving the record, compare the calculation balances stored in the employee record with the payroll calculation maximums.
Because you enter the calculation amounts, Sage 100 Contractor assigns the record status 2-Computed. Therefore, Sage 100 Contractor does not check to see if the calculation maximums have been exceeded.
