Hello,Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong section....I need some help pleaseI passed my payroll exams last year and I am taking over my father in laws payroll accounts as the lady he has been using for years has just retired.I am just about to load all the employees in sage and it is obviously creating new employees but the question I have is sage is asking for the employment start date (most employees have been with us for at least 10+ years) so what do I put? the date they actually started?I hope this makes sense and sorry for being so blonde!!
Hi Theresa,If this isn't too late, then yes, you need to put in the date they actually started their employment. (If you know it of course). Would Sage let you leave the field blank?Pauline
HelloI used this program many years ago and things may have changed but you're supposed to put in the actual start date. But if you don't know it, another date would work. In my day doing that only had minor effects like telling me that someone hadn't been there long enough to earn SSP. Things may have changed though and the effects may be more major now.Peter
