  • Main
    • For those districts using the online version of the School Accounting System with an Apple® Mac remote desktop connection, Version 10 has been tested and is available to use.
  • General Ledger>Maintenance
    • The Project Number field in Account Groups, available for Wyoming districts, has been increased to allow up to 25 characters.
  • General Ledger>Government Reporting
    • Nebraska: Because of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and changes already being made by some districts in the chart of accounts, we are creating a way to programmatically ‘map’ all possible accounts to the old structure to generate the 2017-2018 Annual Financial Report. To do this, we are waiting for the Department of Education to release an updated list of the 2018-2019 ESSA Coding Structure (Clean Version) master list of acceptable accounts. Once that is made available, we plan to release an additional update which will include the 2017-2018 Annual Financial Report and the 2017-2018 GASB 34 Reports.
  • Payroll>Government Reporting
    • Missouri: The Missouri Retirement Report has been updated to accommodate Wage Type O for Non-Member PRSR as Non-Certified.
    • North Dakota: When generating the North Dakota Teachers Retirement Report, the Retirement Salary was being inflated by the number of times the employee’s wage was split between chart of account numbers if your retirement model number included using a payment in kind deduction. This has been corrected.
    • The Quarterly 941s option has been updated to allow for electronic submissions. In order to submit electronically, an authorized signer must request a PIN from the IRS using the 941 Electronic Authorized Signers/PIN Requests option, located under the Government Reporting>Quarterly 941s option. Once a PIN has been assigned by the IRS, it will be used when submitting the quarterly 941 electronically. Refer to the 941 Electronic Authorized Signers/PIN Requests and Submitting the Quarterly 941 Electronically topics in the Help File for detailed instructions on electronically submitting the quarterly 941.
