Microsoft ended mainstream support for GP 2016 in July 2021. If you use GP payroll, US or Canadian, you must be on the latest release of GP before the end of the 2021 to receive the Payroll Tax Table and other year end updates. You can verify your GP release by going to the blue question mark in the top right corner of your GP window and selecting “About Microsoft Dynamics GP”.
If you need to upgrade your version of GP or have any questions please contact us.
