W-2 MENU

The new W-2 system installs a new menu on your system.  You can edit the menus manually if you need to by using the Resource Manager, System File Maintenance, Menus.  This information is provided for special circumstances and should not normally need to be done manually.

 

To add the new menu manually you would enter the application of PA, the menu id of PAXW2, and the title of Process W-2 Forms.  Enter the menu items as shown below:

After you have entered the 8 menu lines, you should press W to write your changes.

 

The only other change made to the menu system is on the existing Periodic Processing Menu in Payroll.  Again enter an application ID of PA.  Since the menu is an already existing one, we will use the F2 key to find it.  Press F2 and look for the menu for Periodic Processing.  Depending on your payroll version, it will be either PA06 or PA07.  Select the appropriate menu.  Arrow down to the current line for the W-2 program.  The line will for the standard OSAS system will look like:

>  10   W-2 Forms                                  3   PAPRW2

 

note: The line number on the left may vary.

 

You should change this line to read:

>  10   W-2 Forms                                  2   PAXW2

 

As long as the program files have been copied into the payroll directory, the new menus changes should now run the new programs.
