Most of us would be familiar with software licensing concepts and the general rules regarding copyrighted and intellectual material. By purchasing a software license a purchaser is allowed to use the software subject to certain conditions. The important points to note here are that the purchaser does not actually own the software and that the license is granted subject to certain conditions.
Owning the software is not an issue as you can generally use it for a lifetime, however you are not permitted to sell, modify or in any other way interfere with it. There are usually a number of conditions for use of the software and these can be found with the software license agreement attached to the software or displayed on installation.
One important condition is the restriction on installation and use. For example, a SINGLE USER license for SAS2000 (and most other software products), allows you to install and use the software on ONE COMPUTER only. This does not mean that you can install the software on several computers but only use one at a time. To do so is an infringement of the software license and is generally termed software piracy.
At Human Edge we understand that many schools have several members of staff who require access to the same software, so we offer MULTI USER licenses for our products. A multi user SAS2000 license is a unique and fantastic value for money option as you can install the software on as many computers at the one campus as you like, including one computer "at home". We believe that no other software supplier in the administration area offers this freedom and financial advantage that represents a saving of thousands of dollars to a school. Using the security options, a school can exactly tailor the software to suit individual groups. This means that only the data and functions that are required by any individual are presented to them.
Our licensing program works on a basic honesty system. We have chosen to operate it this way as we expect that schools would abide by the rules (both moral and legal) and also set an example for children to follow. Software piracy directly affects the ability for companies to continue to provide the products and services that users continue to demand and expect, and has a much greater negative impact for smaller companies such as ourselves.
We offer several different licensing options for each of our products so we understand that some schools may be a bit confused about exactly what their licensing agreement entitles them to. If you have any doubts or questions about your licensing agreement please contact us and we will happily work through the issues with you at no obligation.
We would like to take this opportunity to recognise and thank the vast majority of schools that do play the game correctly and set the best example.
Get a reprint of the Monthly Tax Report for a previous month?
The Monthly Tax Report picks up its figures from the Month to Date figures. When you run the Clear Monthly Totals option at the end of each month these figures are reset to zero ready for the next month. So the Monthly Tax report cannot be printed historically. In the same way if you have not cleared the Monthly Totals before completing a pay run for the next month the report will show the combined total.
If you need to get the tax figures for a previous month, instead of printing the Monthly Tax Report:

Go to REPORTS>EMPLOYEE HISTORY>DETAILED

The report order should be set as follows:
