Question
Where can I get the procedures for installing the new federal tax tables in FinTrac? We should install them after the New Year, correct?
Answer
You can find the instructions on our sFTP site. Here's what to do:
- Use Knowledge Base 1516 for the current sFTP credentials, if you don't have them.
- On your workstation, open a file transfer client and log in to sftp.vermontsystems.com on port 22 using the user name and password credentials of Knowledge Base 1516.
- Once you're logged in, browse to Files Updates and Drivers/FinTrac/<YYYY> Tax Tables, where <YYYY> is the year. For example, 2021 Tax Tables.
- Download the two (2) files in the folder to a local directory, exit the FTP site, and follow the instruction document.
Run this process after the last payroll run of the current year and before the first payroll run of the new year. For example, for the 2021 year, you would run this process after your last payroll run of 2020 but before your first payroll run of 2021.
