Updates 7.0415 and 7.0420 have recently been installed to address the following known issues:
ASCENDER Release 7.0415
Payroll > Reports > TRS Reports > HRS4150 - TRS On-Behalf Payment Journal
- Corrected the issue that prevented the report from being generated.
ASCENDER Release 7.0420
Finance > Reports > Finance Reports > Vendor/Purchase Order Reports > FIN2100-1099 Forms
- Modified the 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC forms to print the two-digit year in the Calendar Yearfield to satisfy the new “fill in the blank” format (20__) when the report is run with the Print 1099 Form only (1), 1099 form including 1099 file (2), Non-preprinted Copy B and C (3) parameter set to 1.
- Note: The two-digit year is retrieved from the Tax Yearparameter beginning with the 2022 tax year.
- Corrected the alignment issue when printing 1099-NEC forms (Non-preprinted Copy B and C (3)).
Payroll > Reports > Quarterly/Annual Reports > HRS5100 - W-2 Forms
- Corrected the functionality of the Consent for Terminated Employees? (Y/N) Previously, if the report was run with the parameter set to N, W-2s were printed for all active employees with an electronic consent of Y. Now, the parameter is only used to filter terminated employees, not active employees.
