Unable to clear or set Week 1/Month 1 flags using Global Changes

Created on  | Last modified on 

Summary

Issue with Global Changes not applying in Sage 50 Payroll.

Description

When using Global Changes to set or clear the Week 1 / Month 1 flag, the changes are not applied.

This occurs if your Sage 50 Payroll username contains a space or special character, e.g. "john smith" or "john-smith".

Resolution

We are investigating this issue. As a workaround you can either:

  • Edit the existing username to remove any spaces and special characters
    or
  • Create a new username with no spaces or special characters then use the new username to perform the global change
