I made the assumption that electronic W2s would be sent to the email the employee has on their Direct Deposit Tab.

However, it is being sent to the email listed on their General Information Tab.

I recommend the W2s be sent using the email on direct deposit because the email on the GI tab also populates on many Sage reports/documents that is sent to 3rd parties relative to projects. This would mean that an employee’s personal email is given to people that should not have this information, rather than their company email.

Furthermore, when an employee leaves the company and no longer has a company email they would not receive their W2 and creates more work for us to forward on to the personal email.

  • We already have had 2 errors of the W2s being sent to company email address for employees that are no longer with the company. I love the feature of electronically sending the W2, but logically it should go to the email in their direct deposit for they are familiar with getting payroll data from that email address for their paychecks.
