PT 2009 / Payroll bugs, Pervasive SQL Database Hangs

A payroll user has upgraded to PT2009 with the consequence of a crippled
accounting system.

It now seems to be common knowledge that PT2009 release is full of payroll bugs,
i.e. with the deletion of the Default EmployER tab along with all it's
configured Employer's Expense payroll expense setups and replacement of with a
new tab called "Company Fields" empty of any previous configurations. I'm still
trying to ascertain what else doesn't work with payroll.

Does anyone have a detailed analysis of this issue and the solution?

Also, it seems that changes might have been made to the underlying Pervasive SQL
Database, as the user has already experienced a dirty Pervasive SQL Server /
Workstation shutdown. Googling "Pervasive SQL hangs", the only solution that I
can find so far is to reboot servers and workstations, and to configure the
server for memory allocations, which is beyond my pay grade.

Again, does anyone have a detailed analysis of this issue and specific solutions
or is this one that will have to wait for a Service Pack Release? To date, I
haven't seen any Service Pack releases for Peachtree 2009 yet

Any insights will be very much appreciated.

thks,

Thanks for the info. I have PT Quantum 2009 sitting on my desk. I think
I will wait awhile to install.

I know you know about the yahoo groups and probably

http://www.peachtreeusers.com/.forums

but did you know PT is now hosting their own forums? :

http://community.peachtree.com/peachtree/

Maybe these forums would be helpful too.
