Hurray for this change! The deletion was also a problem if you were using federal efiling and reporting to print W-2s after the year end close!

I'm trying to find KB article 71732 but can't find. Every time I log onto the sage website, it gets harder and harder to use.

I believe that the info above is the text of that KB.
