Company setup for first-time users

In the Company Selection window, you can do one (or both) of the following options:

Click New Company to begin setting up your own company

Select the sample company to use while you explore Top Pay.

If you have used previous versions of Top Pay or Aatrix Payroll and wish to import your company data at this time, copy the company folder and the Defaults ƒ folder from the current payroll program and drop into the Aatrix Top Pay folder. If you are prompted for a password when opening the program use the default password, which is the word password.

After the company selection is made or the new company is set up, a reminder will appear concerning State Unemployment Tax Rates. Click OK to continue. Optionally you can click the Tell me more button to display more information about this window or click the Stop showing this reminder button to prevent this window from displaying again.

The next window to display is the Aatrix Top Pay Registration dialogue. You can launch and use Top Pay up to eight times without registering. Click the Not Yet button to enter the program or the Enter Registration Number button to register Top Pay. To get your registration number, call the number provided on the dialogue.

A Tax Table warning displays, informing you that your current tax tables will expire on December 31, 2005. After that date, if the tax tables have expired, the first line of this dialog will read, "Your tax tables expired on December 31, 2005…"

The Payment History window will display showing the history of payments for required liability payments. The Amount Due for new users will show as "$0.00" for liability payments.
