Yep. And right now there's a "bug" in the sales tax calculations. I spent
2 hours on the phone with "support" (not local) and we recreated the issue
and they attached my email to the case. A day later I got an email saying
"we can't recreate the issue".

I literally did it on the phone with the support rep. oh ladaka

I do wish there was an alternative. I checked em all out and they're
actually worse. But, I did write some plugins to their APIs to merge my
system and theirs. It works ok in that regard.

I was forced to online due to taxes (payroll, local sales, workman’s

It’s way more expensive and it’s constantly trying to sell me more
features with pop ups. I asked about alternatives with my CPA but there
really aren’t any.

I'm sure it works fine for simple tasks. But not for payroll, taxes,

I think it will be a PIA not having it.
But do you think that things/discussions like this are what give our
system
the reputation for being a 'legacy platform' , ' an outdated
technology
from the 1980s that somehow still exists'.
Do you know of any one working on this platform that is not
approaching
retirement?
I got those quotes from AI.

I don't see why they just can't leave it there and just not support
it.

Maybe get an older machine with an older release for such cases?

:wq! PoC
