Set up the nominal link to post to Sage 200
Description

In Sage 50 Payroll, you can use the nominal link option to post your salary journals directly into Sage 200 Accounts.

Cause
Resolution

The option to post a bank payment isn't available when you post to Sage 200. This is due to the cash book being separate from the nominal account.

Post this from within the Sage 200 software manually once you've posted the payroll journals.

Versions

Sage 50 Payroll can post the nominal link to the following versions of Sage 200 Accounts:

  • Sage 200 Standard online/ Sage for Education  
  • Sage 200 Professional
  • Sage 200 2023 R1
  • Sage 200 2022 R2
  • Sage 200 2022 R1
  • Sage 200 2021 R1

Older unsupported versions of Sage 200 up to and including 2017 R2 will install the nominal link components in the same way as described below.

If you're using an older version of Sage 200, we recommend you speak to your Business Partner.
