YTD help in QB Pro 5.0

[epj107]

HELP!!!! lol

My wife is now the treasurer at her church. They use an old version OF QB Pro (5.0). My wife has got everything down pretty well, except for one thing. Since the new year, all of the YTD amounts on all the paychecks show only the amounts for the current pay period. They have not been adding up on every subsequent check. She ran some kind of report (sorry i'm really familiar with QB) and it showed the correct YTD totals. But for some reason the YTD on the paycheck itself will only show the current pay period numbers.

Can anyone out there help me answer this question?? Can we get the totals to update for all the payroll checks since the beginning of the year?? And why did QB start doing this at the beginning of this year when i worked fine last year??

Thanx in advance!!

If the Payroll Summary report shows the correct amount and you are using the Payroll function and entering the witholdings manualy and the YTD amounts do not show on the voucher, it may be due to the Y2K issue they had with QB-5.0. It could not be made Y2K compliant due to some date issues.

really?? if it were a Y2k issue, why would the YTD calculate on the checks normally for last year and not this year?

I believe the witholdings are done automatically, but i will double check.

Thanx!

The windows version of QuickBooks 5.0 (released in 1998) is a 16 bit program and could not be made Y2K compliant. The Mac 5.0 (released in 2004) is a much later version. The taxtable should be for 2007 for the witholdings to automaticaly caculate and for Windows version they are only for the 2005 - 2007 versions.

Thanx for your help Joe. I've gathered some more infor from my wife...

She DOES enter the witholdings manually. She does not use the taxtable.

And i should have mentioned in my first post that this is the old Windows version of QuickBooks.

Any idea on how we can get the checks to show the correct YTD amounts? Like i said, the YTD amount show correctly on all of last year.

I am having the same trouble. My payroll YTD amounts registered correctly in 2006 using Quickbooks 5.0 version. However when I started payroll in Quickbooks 5.0 in 2007, YTD amounts dont add up. I have redone payroll several times and same issues..

Any help?

Thanks

QB 5.0 has a problem using some of the dates for 2000 on, It is NOT Y2K compatable and could not be corrected bercause of the program code. This is probbaly why the YTD amounts do not add correctly. I am not sure that the data can be correctly updated to the new version of QB without data damage.
