You might have heard that Sage has been working on revamping the payroll module which will be called Sage 100 Payroll 2.0. From the information that has been released thus far, it seems to represent one of the most significant product changes in a while.
Sage recently published a few videos that give us a sneak peek of what’s to come which we’ll explore in this article.

Migrating to the Business Framework
As you already know if you’re using the payroll module, it still works in the legacy framework while many of the modules around it have been migrated to the more modern Business Framework. That said, Sage 100 Payroll 2.0 will be migrated to the Business Framework which will open things up for more significant strides in features and capability.
