Frequently Asked Questions About Sage 100 Payroll Maintenance Tiers

Why is Sage implementing a payroll subscription?

Sage is changing the way it provides its customers with U.S. payroll. Sage is implementing a payroll subscription to base a customer’s cost for payroll on the range of employees for whom they process payroll. Customers that pay fewer employees will pay less for payroll than customers that pay more employees.

Can a customer subscribe to Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll without using Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c as their ERP?

No. A customer must have Sage 100/100c (Standard or Advanced Editions) or Sage 300/300c (Standard, Advanced or Premium Editions) in order to subscribe to Sage U.S. Payroll.

Does a customer’s Sage Business Care plan for Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c need to be current to subscribe to the Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll subscriptions?

Yes. Customers that want to subscribe to Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll must have a current Sage Business Care plan.

How does a customer pay for the Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll subscription?

Customers have the option to subscribe to the Sage 100/100c or Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll by making one of the following commitments:

  • An annual commitment paid annually
  • An annual commitment paid monthly

The subscription is processed as an automatic debit from a customer’s credit card or as an ACH debit transaction from their bank account. Customers cannot pay for the subscription using a check. A customer’s subscription will automatically renew on the anniversary of the subscription date, and the customer will be billed for the subscription automatically without notice from Sage.

Should Sage experience an issue with the method of payment selected, we will attempt to contact the customer three times for ten business days. Sage does make every effort to contact the person identified as the billing contact. If during this time this information is not able to be obtained, the following reactivation fees apply:

  • $0, if a customer resolves the issue within three business days
  • 1-45 days = $500 (Canada: $625)
  • 46-90 days = $1,250 (Canada: $1,563)
  • 91+ days =$2,500 (Canada: $3,125)

Sage payroll tier billing point of contact – 866-996-7241, option 3.

Are Aatrix W-2 and 1099 e-filing services included in the Sage 100/100c and Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll subscriptions?

Aatrix W-2 and 1099 e-filing services are not included in the Sage 100/100c and Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll subscriptions at this time. The cost for these services is additional. Printing of forms through Aatrix is still no cost for subscribers.

On what date do Sage 100/100c and Sage 300/300c customers need to subscribe to Sage U.S. Payroll?

Starting May 1, 2016, existing Sage 100/100c and Sage 300/300c U.S. Payroll module customers will be asked to subscribe to payroll on their Sage Business Care renewal date.

How is a customer’s payroll tier determined?

A customer’s payroll tier is determined by counting the number of employees that are marked “Active” in the U.S. Payroll module on the employee maintenance screen and identifying from these the number for whom the customer processes a paycheck during a specified pay period. Employees that are in archived, backed up, or in separate databases of the payroll software should only be considered in a tier calculation if they are active and employees for whom a paycheck will be processed.

How does Sage know how many employees are active and an employee is being paid?

Sage uses the employee status marked in the Payroll module employee maintenance screen under the main tab to determine if an employee is active. Any employee with an active status on this screen will be considered active for calculating payroll tiers. Active employees are those for whom the payroll software calculates payroll taxes during a given pay period. Customers that want to change an employee’s status can do so by selecting “change employee status” from the Payroll employee maintenance screen under the main tab and selecting the appropriate status from the drop-down menu.
