Online Training Sessions

We are pleased to offer our Red Wing Software customers an opportunity to learn more about CenterPoint via Online Training sessions. Online Training sessions provide you with in-depth information and explanations that allow you to learn more about CenterPoint from any location where you can access the internet (high-speed internet connection recommended). The sessions are presented live by one of our CenterPoint experts while you view the presenter's computer screen. You will have the opportunity to ask questions. The sessions are recorded and sent to you so you can refer to the information afterward.
You can view and register for available sessions from our website at www.redwingsoftware.com by selecting Menu > Online Training (under 'Services' on the top right-hand side of the menu) or by clicking the links below.

CARES Act COVID-19 Reporting Updates

Congress recently passed coronavirus tax relief bills (CARES Act) to help businesses deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 Form 941, through our Aatrix tax forms software, is now available. If you have been using our recommended CARES Act COVID-19 paid leave setup process with the ability to select Retention Credit pay runs outlined in the document below, the 2020 Form 941 will automatically perform the new required calculations. If you did not follow the CenterPoint COVID paid leave setup process, the COVID-19 information will need to be manually entered on the 941 form in Aatrix (Retention Credit pay runs can still be selected). CenterPoint Payroll also has access to Form 7200 - Advance Payment of Employer Credits Due to COVID-19, and other CARES Act COVID-19 reports including PPP Payroll Cost reports to assist in completing the PPP Loan Forgiveness Application.
Click here to view documentation on CenterPoint Payroll and COVID-19 Paid Leave. Or from within CenterPoint Payroll, select Help > CenterPoint Help, and then enter COVID-19 in the Search bar.

Red Wing Payroll 2020 Form 941 Information

NOTE: This notification is for the Red Wing Software legacy product, which is called Red Wing Payroll (or Red Wing Windows Payroll). This notification is NOT in reference to CenterPoint Payroll, which is the current payroll system offered by Red Wing Software.
The 2020 Form 941 through our Aatrix tax forms software is now available. However, due to technology limitations, Red Wing Payroll cannot automatically fill out the 2020 Form 941 with the CARES Act COVID-19 information. CARES Act COVID-19 information will need to be manually added to the 941, in Aatrix, if applicable to your situation.
Each business and its CARES Act choices will be different. For information about your specific situation, contact your accountant or CPA, or see the following links:
