Entering payroll advances

Important! If you are issuing a cash advance, Sage 100 Contractor still requires a check number to save the transaction. Enter a dummy check number.

Open 5-2-2 Payroll Records.

In the Employee text box, enter the employee number.

In the Period Start text box, enter the date when the payroll period begins.

In the Period End text box, enter the date when the payroll period ends.

In the Check Date text box, enter the date when the check is to be issued.

In the Check# text box, type 0000.

When you print the check, Sage 100 Contractor assigns the check number to the record.

If you have already issued the check, enter the check number in the Check# text box.

In the Payroll Type list, click 5-Advance.

In the Quarter text box, enter the payroll quarter.

In the State text box, enter the tax state.

In the Advance text box, enter the amount of the payroll advance.

Tip: Sage 100 Contractor assigns the advance status 2-Computed; you do not need to final-compute the record before printing the check.
