What’s new in Sage 50 Payroll v29

Updated name and desktop shortcut

We’ve simplified the software name to Sage 50 Payroll. Don’t worry though, all your cloud based features such as Online Services and Pensions Data Exchange remain in place and work as normal.

When you install v29 a new icon named Sage 50 Payroll is added to your desktop. Simply delete the old Sage 50cloud Payroll icon and use your new icon to launch your software.

Find out about the new shortcut icon and more in our software name change to Sage 50 Payroll guide.
