Steps to update a new renewal code on Sage VIP Classic and Sage VIP Premier.
The renewal code contains the software licence including the following information:
- The number of employees you can process and pay on the payroll
- The licensed modules you can access
- The registration date
When we create a new license code, you’ll need to update this on the system.
Access the renewal screen
- Open your payroll system.
- Verify that you are on the latest version of the software application.
NOTE: Your system version displays at the top-right corners of the Company Listing screen.
- On the Company Listing screen, click Renewal.
Update the new renewal code
- On the Company Listing Screen, click the Renewal icon.

- The latest renewal code updates automatically.
TIP:
If the code didn't appear in the block, you'll need to manually copy and paste the code to update. You can generate a new code from the Sage Portal if needed.
- Click Continue to apply the new renewal code.

- System type
