The removal of HUBB Investor functionality has no effect on the online share price download feature. You can continue to download share price data with the new v31 edition as normal.

Re: Hourly rate is incorrect on Employee Contact List report
Hi Gemma and John
Im also interested to know how "Hourly Rate" pulls data onto the Employee Contact List.
Earnings 1/Rate and Earnings 2/Rate are showing the correct rates, but Hourly Rate is blank in a couple of instances.
Thanks

Re: Migrating from desktop to hosted?
Thanks for the comprehensive rundown, Alex.
We have two subscriptions, the previous years for AU & UK (just open desired company file) and the latest version for AU.
There's always a "hassle" at update/tax table time as our IT contractor is not quite as experienced with Reckon as some.
Great suggestion to do a trial by uploading the company file to the hosted trial.
Anyway, bit busy at the moment but hope to review your post in more detail over the weekend. Thanks again for the comments.
