Overview of Statutory Deductions and Reporting for Netherlands

Statutory Deductions and Reporting cards store all the information required to accurately compute tax contributions for an employee.

It also stores the social insurance contributions of their employer, including standard-rate tax codes and details of any tax discounts to which the employee is eligible, special-rate income, and sector fund details. It includes information used in the statutory wage report and in the digital absence report. One or more Statutory Deductions and Reporting card must be created for each employee. Additional cards need to be created if employees have multiple assignments in different TRUs and/or have different tax rules for each assignment.

Considerations and Prerequisites

If the product license is set to Payroll or Payroll Interface, Statutory Deductions and Reporting cards are automatically created when a new employee is entered using the New Hire task with a set of default values, some of which are specified at TRU level.

TRU association and association details for the card are created automatically when the Reporting Establishment and payroll are selected during the hire process. The payroll frequency for the assignment must also match the payroll frequency of the TRU that is defaulted from the reporting establishment

However, there may be cases where this information must be loaded in bulk:

During data migration:

If HCM Data Loader is used to migrate employee records a default Statutory Deductions and Reporting card is automatically created. Default value may need to be updated.

Ongoing bulk updates:

  • Bulk loading of new hire data: If you have to do a mass upload of New Hire information, a default Statutory Deductions and Reporting card may be automatically generated (if the new hire records are created through HCM Data Loader). In this case, you need to update the default card with the correct information.

An Employer Deduction Information card must exist for each TRU with which the Statutory Deductions and Reporting card is associated.

You must create element eligibility for the Tax and Social Insurance Calculations element for each Legislative Data Group (LDG) that is used for entering personal calculation cards. Do not check the Automatic entry checkbox while creating element eligibility. It is recommended to have a good understanding of the Statutory Deductions and Reporting card and the information it contains prior to attempting mass upload as it has a direct impact on statutory deductions and reporting.
