Question

WARNING!

This product contains tax tables for 2010/11 Financial Year that take effect from 1st July 2010.

You must process employee pays for the 2009/10 Financial Year prior to installing this update. Otherwise your 2009/10 pay calculations will not be correct. Likewise you must follow End of Year procedures and generate your Empdupe and INB Payment Summaries for the 2009/10 tax year, before upgrading.

Once you have installed this update, QuickBooks will use the 2010/11 tax tables to calculate pays.

Answer

1.     Process all pays for the 2009/10 financial year.

[Windows 7 and Windows Vista users only] Prior to installing the update ensure that you have UAC turned on and you are logged in as an Administrator.

For all Windows Server installations, the installation must be started via the Add/Remove feature with the Control Panels Add or Remove programs.

You cannot use a company file in a multi-user environment unless all installations are updated to the same version. Please note that in network environments where you are using the QuickBooks Database Manager on a standalone server, the database manager DOES NOT require this upgrade.
