Since installing Sage 50 2011 for one of my clients the payslips print out in a different order. They used to print in the same order as they are on the employee list and the payroll reports. The payroll reports are in the right order but not the payslips!?!
Does anybody know why this is please.
(PS - have tried phoning Sage but didn't have the will to wait 70 minutes!!)
Sage 50 Payroll 2011 comes with an updated report designer.
You can now edit the order of your payslips as you have found. It may have defaulted to length of employee service. I've taken the following from the ask sage support site.
Note: This article applies to Sage 50 Payroll 2011 and the new tax year update for 2011/2012. If you use Sage 50 Payroll 2010 or below and have not yet installed your new tax year update, for information about how to add a sort in these versions, please refer to Ask Sage article 11480 . Using Report Designer, you can sort information on your reports or layouts into a specific order. For example, if you have a report that lists your employees, to show the oldest employees first, you can sort the report by employee date of birth. This article explains how to add a sort to your report. Note: If your report or layout includes a group, the information on your report or layout automatically sorts by this group. You can still add further sorts to your report, however they are applied after the group. For further information about how to use groups please refer to Ask Sage article 26564 . Answer Quick steps
