Not able to change the Company's Full Name

Post by ksakhamuri »

I recently started using the community edition and we are using this for a sole proprietorship. I guess, we set it up using the DBA name and that's what is now showing in the Full Name too. But, I guess we need the owner's name to show on the tax documents. And I tried to change the Full Name under the company information and no matter how many times I try to change and save, it doesn't really get saved / registered. Is that not allowed or is there different place to edit such information?

Thanks,
Kalyan

Company information can be changed at the Legal Entity, located by clicking Company -> Legal Entities

For more information please see the Legal Entities section of the TimeTrex Administrator Guide:

Hello,
Thank you for the response. I was able to change the "Legal Name" under the Legal Entity as the full name and left the Trade Name as the "DBA name". However, when I generate the W2/W3 or the 941s, it still uses the Trade Name, which is what shows as the Company Name under the Company Information.

Whatever the Legal Entity's Trade Name is is what will show up on tax documents.
