- The Year End update will include an update to GP 18.3, which will release in October 2020. (In other words if you are on GP 2018 18.0 or GP 18.2, the Year End Update will update GP to 18.3.)
- There is a new 1099 form – 1099-NEC which will be included in the Year End Release in November/December. “To stay current, you must be on one of the 2020 releases.” So to receive the year end update you will need to be on the current version, which will be 18.3 that releases in October.
