State
- State W/H is not being calculated at all on an employee.
Check to make sure the state was been setup correctly for the employee.
Employee Maintenance -> Items -> Tax Jurisdiction
Make sure the Addition & Deduction Payroll Items are correct. (ie: MOGROS & MOSTWH)
- State W/H is being calculated incorrectly on an employee.
Make sure the Addition & Deduction Payroll Items are correct. The most common problem is the person added an addition to the employee's Federal Tax Jurisdiction but not to State Jurisdiction (ie: Bonus). So the system is only calculating the state tax on the one addition (ie: GAGROS) not on both (ie: GAGROS + BONUS).
- If you want/need to change the Gross Amount of the check but don't want the system to recalculate State or Federal withholding amounts. Enable the Override Payroll Item Amounts checkbox on the Payroll Entry Screen. Then change the Gross Amount. The system will recalculate FICA and Medicare but not the Federal or State figures.
- You want the State Withholding figure to round to the nearest dollar.
Setup -> Payroll -> State -> Round State Withholding (checkbox)
