New Payroll Features8/30/2007 - New payroll features are in development and will be available soon... "No-Match" Letters. The program will track employees for which you have received a "no-match" letter from the Social Security Administration to help you follow the safe harbor provisions established by the Department of Homeland Security. H-2A Employees. Several customers have asked about doing payroll for H-2A employees. While it is currently possible to set up wage types to handle the special tax-exempt status of H-2A workers, we are making additional changes to handle H-2A workers better. This includes adding a H-2A checkbox on the employee setup window, suppressing W-2 printing for H-2A workers, printing 1099-M's for H-2A workers, and adding an H-2A selection on various reports. The H-2A payroll features will be available as an extra cost option. If you are interested, please contact our sales department for more details. For your convenience, we have reprinted articles from Ag Alert on our web site that discuss the H-2A program and the new DHS "No-Match" rules. Price Changes08/01/2007 - There are new order forms for The Farmer's Office, The Labor Contractor's Office and The Shipper's Office. If you currently have an old order form, those prices will be honored on all purchases made before September 30th. New Remote Communications Software06/30/2007 - Datatech is now using Ultra VNC for providing customers with remote support connections. This free program provides security and easy connections, along with file transfer capabilities. View instructions for downloading, installing, and using UltraVNC here. New Employee Quick Entry03/33/2007 - A new option in the Employee entry window will change the display to "Quick Entry" mode.

Vehicle Maintenance Software Update09/15//2006 -
Datatech has designed a program that takes all the hassle out of keeping track of vehicle maintenance. The Vehicle Maintenance software is designed for companies that either do maintenance in-house or send vehicles to an outside mechanic. The program will track mileage when you enter fuel tags and report when a vehicle is in need of scheduled maintenance. A work order can then be created for your mechanics to detail the maintenance to be completed. Cost analysis reports provide data on fuel, scheduled maintenance, and repair costs with totals and per mile costs. We have updated features in the Purchase Order program, so if you need an update or a new evaluation copy of the software call Hannah at (888) 222-DATA ext. 101. Easier Program Updates12/21/2005 - Program updates are easier than ever now for customers with Internet access. Instead of downloading updates from our web site and running the setup.exe to install, just go to the Tools menu and select Check for Updates. The program will automatically check Datatech's server for the latest update, and tell you if a newer version is available for download. It can then download the update and start the installation process automatically for you. You can even have the program check for updates on a regular basis for you. New Crop Report Options12/17/2005 - New cost accounting report options have been added to the Monthly Crop Report and the Consolidated Crop Report. First, the Monthly Crop Report offers the option of selecting the report order (much like the change made last year to the detailed Worker's Comp Report). This allows you to change the report "on the fly" and do things that weren't possible before. For instance, if you are printing the Monthly Crop Report using a consolidated crop report definition, you can now get subtotals by Cost Center ID. The Consolidated Crop Report is more flexible now with the addition of four different options for selecting the cost centers that will be printed on the reports. The existing method of setting up a consolidated crop report definition is still there of course. This allows you to select any cost centers that you want to appear on the report. New options include selecting a range of cost centers (beginning and ending Cost ID), selecting an overhead cost center (which will include all of the cost centers assigned to that overhead), selecting a commodity to print (all cost centers whose Commodity field matches what you select) and selecting a customer account to print (use by farm labor contractors and farm management companies, this will select all cost centers assigned to that customer). Label Printing12/15/2005 - A time saving feature that we have added to our accounting software is the ability to print single labels for customers, vendors, and employees on a dedicated label printer. Laser printers are great for printing a large number of labels, but if you often just need one label for an envelope or a file folder, a label printer like the Dymo LabelWriter series is the way to go. Our accounting software now has options to print single labels on these printers for mailing, file folders, and shipping labels. There's also an option for you to type in a label manually and print it. Acreage Split Enhancement

If you operate a
trucking or large farming operation, chances are you maintain a large fleet of
vehicles. Keeping track of the maintenance of these vehicles can be a time
consuming task.
