Tax Calculations

If the system is not calculating taxes correctly for one or more employees in the payroll:

  • Verify that the Vertex database is populated.

  • If a timecard is created for this employee, verify that it is locked to the correct payroll ID.

  • If no timecards exist for the employee, verify that a taxable benefit was created for the employee.

    If no timecards or taxable benefits were created for the employee, the system will not calculate taxes.

  • Confirm that the Set Vertex Tax table (F07490) contains 112 records for the United States, and 48 records for Canada.

  • Verify that the value in the Tax Area field is correct in the employee's record in the Employee Master Information table (F060116).
