Installing Top Pay
Top Pay is installed in a variety of ways. If you have an older version, it may have been installed when you installed QuickBooks®. The latest version of Top Pay, v16, is not installed with the latest version of QuickBooks® software. For version 16 to work correctly on your computer, you must make sure no older versions exist on your hard drive, for when looking for a program to open, QuickBooks will not seek out the newest installation of Top Pay; just the handiest. The best way to install Top Pay is to follow the instructions that came with your product. For users of v15 who are upgrading, the installation is a simple drag-and-drop, with some information to be filled out on first time program launch, such as unlock codes (for Tax Tables), program registration, etc. For users who are migrating from an older product, a special installation procedure must be followed to move your company data. Each installation has its own set of instructions, and for best results you must follow them carefully. Users of v11-14: DO NOT SKIP the step of creating a complete backup of your program folder. Many users do not pay attention to the system requirements for v16--which absolutely needs OS 10.2 or higher--and then discover they cannot run Top Pay 16 after trying to install it anyway, or worse, discover their company information became corrupted when they tried to open it afterward. Please--back up your software and company data before ANY major upgrade, and pay attention to the installation requirements. Our Tech Support department can do nothing for you if you try to install on an unsupported platform and lose your data. Please Note that this Year-End Guide is geared toward the latest version of Payroll software. A collection of installation documents is available at http://documentation.aatrix.com. Also available, in the FAQ section of this website, are screenshots of the drag and drop operation if you are unsure what this is all about. If you are reading this Year End guide, it's highly likely you have already installed your software--you simply need to start using it. So--onward! |
