Version 2022.4.1 release notes

We released version 2022.4.1 on January 9, 2023 with the following changes.
After July 12, 2022, Microsoft will no longer support SQL Server 2012 or earlier. Therefore, as of the v.2022.2.0
Accounting CS
release, scheduled for late June 2022, your firm must have SQL Server 2014 or higher installed on the servers that run
Accounting CS
. See Discontinued support for Microsoft SQL Server 2012 for details and steps you can take to continue using
Accounting CS
without interruption.
note
This change doesn't affect firms using
Accounting CS
on Virtual Office or Software as a Service (SaaS).

Accounting

We've updated the Export Client Data Wizard for tax exports to Lacerte, ProSeries, and ProSystem fx for the 2022 tax year.

Layout Designer

We've added the
W-2 Employee Copy 4-Up Pressure Seal
layout.
note
If your firm has modified the predefined version of a layout, Accounting CS won't overwrite your existing layout with an updated version. If this is the case, you'll need to make the necessary changes to your customized layout manually, or you will need to restore the latest predefined version using the Layout Designer. To do the latter, select the layout from the Layouts List pane in the Layout Designer and then choose
File > Restore Default
.

General - Payroll

Texas.
The Texas Workforce Commission has decreased the Replenishment tax rate to 0.2%, effective January 1, 2023. Accordingly, the rate defaults to 0.2% in the Unemployment Rate dialog (accessed via the Payroll Taxes tab of the Clients screen) for new client records and when new unemployment rate records are added to existing clients.
