A reminder that in order to print any tax forms from any version of Sage 100 ERP you must adopt the Sage Aatrix eFiling. This connection will allow you to continue printing the forms (at no cost) and eFiling (for a small per item transaction cost).

Sage will no longer update the tax forms (1099, W2, 941) or their Electronic Reporting Module (fka Magnetic Media). You MUST adopt Aatrix if you require updated tax forms and/or electronic filing.

This program is a separate install from your source Sage 100 ERP Sage disk.

Sage 100 ERP 941 Form Alignment Fix

by

Sage have just issued a program patch for versions 4.3+ of Sage 100 ERP which corrects an issue some users have encountered trying to print the 2013 IRS form 941.

It appears the original issue relates to the report itself which would resize the fonts incorrectly when the workstation display settings were NOT set to 100% (default).

The two report files which are updated:

PR941A.RPT
PRSCHB.RPT

Depending upon the version of Sage 100 ERP (formerly Sage ERP MAS 90 and MAS 200) you can download the fix from:

Sage 100 ERP 2013 Product Update 2 – download link and instructions
Sage 100 ERP 2013 Product Update 1 – download link and instructions
Sage 100 ERP 4.3 to 4.5 – download link and instructions

Why isn’t the form 941 aligning?

In some cases customers have observed that the form is not aligning properly. The cause appears to be that the computer from which they are printing the form has the default system font set to something other than 100%.

Please change your computers display (DPI) settings to Smaller – 100%(default).

  1. Go to Control Panel and click Display
  2. Select Smaller-100%(default)
