This article will provides detail on the correct version applicable for the RSA Interim Reconciliation to SARS on Sage VIP Classic, Sage VIP Premier.

Resolution

Your payroll application must be updated to Release 6.0a (available September 2023) to submit your reconciliation for the period March to August 2023.

This is required to ensure your payroll tax certificate export file is compatible with the latest version of SARS e@syFile.


You can download the software from the Sage Portal.

NOTE: The software update should only be installed when all your companies are in a new pay period before you paid employees or printed final reports for the pay period.

The update will include the updated IRP5 codes and validations in line with the SARS Business Requirement Specification for the applicable tax year. Please review the software release notes for all changes.
