WINDOWS XP Service Pack 2 Some users who have installed Windows XP Service Pack 2, have reported that Trimar software may crash and return to Windows when displaying reports. This does not happen to all XP SP2 users. For those that have the problem, the current versions of software on our web site have been updated to remove this potential problem. FORTHCOMING
PROGRAM RELEASES LEASEMAN V3.05. This version which is now available from Client Services, extends the program's capability for Hire Purchase. Before using the HP capability you should do the relevant Familiaristion Exercise (Select HELP/HELP CONTENTS/TUTORIAL HP then File and Print) & follow the step by step instructions. Prior to setting up your own HP registers, ensure that you are aware of the limitations of HP accounting as outlined in section [F] of the tutorial, including the fact that Leaseman only caters for the GST ACCRUAL BASIS (the schedule for the cash basis is handled by our Finman program). The Tutorial also deals with converting existing Registers to use the HP capability. Note: Upgrading from Leaseman version 2 to Leaseman Version 3, requires a database upgrade. On first access to a data file, Leaseman will do this automatically. Once upgraded, versions of Leaseman prior to version 3, will not be able to access the data files. FINMAN V8.01 is also available for download.
This version contains the
new (1st July, 2008) PAYG Tax tables for the Quick Tax Calculator.
