It is not recommended to download software from unofficial sources as they may contain viruses or malware. It is recommended to contact the manufacturer or authorized resellers to inquire about obtaining a legitimate copy of the 8.5.1 version of American Contractor.

Answer by Saumya Sharma

You can try contacting Maxwell and asking if they have a download or upgrade available for American Contractor version 8.5. Alternatively, you can search online for any sources where you can download the upgrade. However, be cautious when downloading software from unofficial sources as they may contain malware or viruses.

Replaced workstation hard drive. Where to find the install package for the workstation?

S
Answer by Sean Hill

This is actually a bit complicated. If you replaced the workstation's hard drive, then the operating system needs to be installed again. If you just replaced an additional hard drive, then connect it and start the application and add it into the main software.


I suggest you contact your local administrator to ask him about this situation. Also, American Contractor has been acquired by the Viewpoint corporation and the new product is called: Vista™ by Viewpoint.

We were using American Contractor in 2013 and prior for another company. Is the software still supported by Maxwell Systems Inc.?

R
Answer by Robert Polubinski

I don't think this application is still supported because I've visited the official website and there was nothing mentioned about the American Contractor application. Their new software is called ViewPoint and the developers are also changed which I tend to believe that they have been acquired.


You can get in touch with them using the following link: http://viewpoint.com/contact-us


I've also used Google Search and related search engines to look for other websites, but there weren't any available.

Can you please send me the steps on how to add a customer in American Contractors?

A
Answer by Alex Urbach

There is no manual or instructional guide on how to add a company or a customer in that application. I've searched the web and I couldn't find anything about it. If you have it installed, access the built-in Help section. For an application of this type, I am absolutely sure there should be a manual presenting you the ways to add a contractor.


There is no data on the official website as well, therefore send an inquiry to the developers about this: http://viewpoint.com/contact-us

Can we auto generate 1095c & 1094C forms for IRS electronic feed and employee distribution?

S
Answer by Sean Hill

This product doesn't appear to be available. I've checked what appears to be the official website, but there's no mention of AmericanContractor or the forms you have specified above. In this case, the only way to obtain additional instructions is through the developers themselves.

I would like to set up a second company on my American Contractor software. How can I do this?

S
Answer by Sean Hill

The Maxwell Systems, Inc. developers, the ones who created American Contractor were acquired by Viewpoint, but with the acquisition, the software doesn't appear to be available anymore in terms of support, selling, troubleshooting, updates, etc.


I've tried finding a manual or a way to obtain guides related to adding another company in American Contractor, but it doesn't exist anything for this purpose. In some cases, apps like this one work only with a single company, therefore lacking the possibility of adding another one.
