Calculating State Payroll Tax Liability

Array GLI AR PYTX RT, with its processing formula GLI FM CHK STATE, determines an employee's state and payroll tax rate.

Note: You need to ensure that all earnings and deductions liable for state payroll tax are in the GLI SPT PROVISION accumulator. This is only a provision for GL reporting, not actual State Payroll Tax amounts.
