Field or Control

Description

Current Month-to-Date or Adjustment to Month-to-Date

Enter the new balance in the Current Month-to-Date field as appropriate in any or all of theTaxes, Taxable Gross, and Withholding Allowances group boxes. The system calculates theAdjustment to Month-to-Date values in each group box based on the current month-to-date balance that you enter.

Alternatively, you can enter an adjustment amount in the Adjustment to Month-to-Date field in the appropriate group boxes, in which case the system calculates the new Current Month-to-Date value for that group box.

Balances are updated in the payroll calculation and confirmation processes that you run during the year.

Note: Balance adjustments are applied individually. If you make an adjustment to a 1042 balance on the Adjust 1042 Balances page, you will also likely want to apply the same adjustment to the summarized 1042 totals on the Adjust 1042 Tax Balance 2 page.

Exemption Code

Specify the exemption code that applies to this employee. When the system creates the employee’s 1042 Balance record during payroll calculation and confirmation processes, it enters a default exemption code of Tax Treaty. Before you print the paper forms or generate the electronic file, verify or change the employee’s exemption code on the tax 1042 balance record.
