Progress indicator

A progress indicator appears just below the Menu bar. This indicator graphically depicts your progress in the three main phases of the Payroll Tax Forms processing procedure.

Action toolbar

The Action toolbar is located directly beneath the progress indicator. The buttons in this toolbar change or become available depending on the current phase of preparation. The box in the center of this toolbar displays messages and prompts to help you complete the current step in the preparation process and advance to the next.

Prev and Next buttons

This tool is active only for forms with multiple pages. Click Prev to return to the previous page of the form you are working on. Click Next to move to the next page of the form.

Note:  Each employee's W-2 is displayed separately in the Payroll Tax Form Viewer

Page Jump menu

This tool is active only for forms with multiple pages. This menu shows the number of pages. Select the page to jump to from the selections.

Previous Step, Next Step

Click the Previous Step and Next Step buttons to go to the next or last phase of the preparation process for the current form.

Note:  You can't eFile or print certified copies of any form until you've entered all required information

Save

Saves data to a file. If you've brought in new data, a dialog will warn you that existing data will be overwritten. If you close the program without saving your data, the program will prompt for it.

Print

Depending on where you are in the forms preparation procedure, the Print button will print a draft copy, a copy for your records ("My Copy"), or the final copies that you will sign and mail to the filing entity.

eFile

This button is available only if you have completed everything required to prepare the displayed form. If you haven't already registered for the MYOB eFile Program, clicking this button displays a dialog with instructions for enrollment. If you have already enrolled for MYOB eFile, you will be guided through the eFile process step by step.

Form display

The form display area of the Payroll Tax Form Viewer shows a facsimile of your final printed form. The facsimile includes a number of tools that make it convenient to correct and update the information on that form.

The entire Payroll Tax Form Viewer is resizable. It can be used at maximum size to cover your entire screen, or scaled to show only the toolbar buttons. Resize it as you would any other window to comfortably fit the way you like to work.

Focus rectangles

Animated marquees outline certain fields on the form:

• Blue marquees identify the field where you are currently working.

• Red marquees outline required fields. Red marquees change to blue once an entry is made in a required field.

Note:  Red fields must be completed before you advance to the next step

• A blue shaded area indicates fields in which data can be manually entered or changed.
