Notes:

• Only accountant users may add or modify payroll subscriptions for a wholesale discount client.
• Upgrading from Standard to Advanced Payroll may initiate a pro-rata charge based on the billing date of the month.
• Downgrading from Advanced to Standard Payroll will not refund Advanced subscription fees (which are paid in advance).
• Payroll cancellation will be scheduled to the next wholesale discount billing date of the month.
• If you cancel, you will still be billed for unique employees paid in the month on the next invoice.
