Setting Up Tax Area Information
Access the Tax Area Revisions form.
- Description 1
Enter a description for the data items.
If you are entering state or provincial taxes, it is recommended that you start the descriptions with the two-letter state or province abbreviation.
This naming convention provides you with an easier search because the system groups all taxes with the same abbreviation together.
- Co/Empl Paid (company/employee paid)
Enter a code that indicates whether the payroll tax associated with the tax authority is paid by the company, as an expense, or by the employee, as a deduction (withholding). Values are:
C: Company paid
E: Employee withheld
- Method of Printing
Enter a code that identifies whether the PDBA is to be printed on the paystub or whether it is to be printed on a payment that is separate from other PDBAs. Values for pay types and payroll taxes include:
Y: Print on paystub (default).
S: Print separate payment (one item per payment).
C: Print separate payment (C types combined)
N: Do not print on paystub.
Values for DBAs include:
Y: Print as total deductions (default).
S: Print separate payment (one item per payment).
C: Print separate payment (include detail).
N: Do not print on paystub.
I:Print individual DBA codes.
T: Print by DBA print group.
The separate payment feature is not available for any payroll taxes being withheld from the employee's payment.
- Statutory Code
Enter an alpha code from user-defined code (UDC) table 07/SC that specifies the two-character or three-character state or province code that prints on statutory reports such as W-2s and T4s.
For example, on W-2s and T4s, instead of printing 06, which might be the taxing authority for the state of Colorado, the system prints the statutory code CO.
- A/P Voucher (Y,N) (accounts payable voucher [yes, no])
Enter a code that determines whether the system should generate a voucher for the DBA, tax, or wage attachment during the final update phase of the payroll processing cycle. Values are:
N: No.
Y: Yes.
