Happy Easter from all of us at Collins Computing!

Round 3 U.S. Payroll Tax Update Released

Microsoft released a Round 3 U.S. Payroll Tax Update for Oregon.  This is a table change only.  There were some late table changes that were not in the Round 2 Update so Microsoft included them now.

Download links & Information can be found HERE.

Upcoming Release Schedules

• GP2016 is due to release first week in May - great blogs to follow are Microsoft's "Upgrade Blog Series" and "Feature of the Day"
• There will be a mid-year code drop planned around June.  This is typically for Canadian Payroll but Microsoft is awaiting changes.  Higher priority bugs are planned for this update.  This will be for GP 2013, GP 2015 and GP 2016.  More info to come...

Upcoming Tax Updates & Release Information

There is no US Payroll 941 form/code change.  There are no scheduled US Payroll or Canadian Payroll tax update changes.

 

Microsoft's focus is on the next release, Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016!  Here are just some of the new features in Dynamics GP 2016:

• More All in One document viewer has been added in GP 2016  - Sales
• Default word templates for batch related workflows
• Document Attach for Project Expenses
• Payroll Posting Account setup – revamp to add more of what users want when creating detailed posting accounts (copy, paste, import/export, sorting)
• HTML5 Web Client

A few "big win" items were added to Self-Service:

• Human Resource Attendance time not available to employees on the Home/Tile page (only paystub) - added more areas to view time available
• Self Service Managers cannot see Employee Available Time for Vacation, Sick, Float, etc, harder for them to approve when they cannot see available balance.

Microsoft's, Terry Heley, will be starting her "Feature of the Day" blog in April.

Don't forget about the Directory Page where you can find information about Dynamics GP (lifecycle links, training material, features, system requirements, etc).

We will also send out updates as we receive them.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us or your Collins Account Manager.
