Tax Jurisdictions for the US

Tax jurisdictions help the payroll process determine a person's tax withholding by identifying which state and local bodies have tax authority over them. They are based on the person's resident and work tax addresses.

The Tax Jurisdictions card stores the derived tax jurisdictions and their resident and work tax addresses. You can use the Calculation Entries task to override these jurisdictions as needed.

To be able to accurately determine your employees' tax jurisdictions, you must:

  • Be running the Payroll license

  • Have full address validation enabled, and all employee and location addresses validated to rooftop accuracy

  • Ensure all employees have a Tax Jurisdictions card
