Editing Employer Contributions on a Paycheck

Based on the payroll items selected for the employee, NetSuite applies contributions, such as the employer’s 401(k) match.

Existing lines in the Contributions subtab are editable. However, unless you need to reduce an amount, you should add new lines. New lines are always treated as manual entries. When you recalculate, manual entries are untouched, but, in certain circumstances, values that are calculated automatically can be cleared and recalculated.

Note:

If you make a change on the Contributions subtab, you may also want to permanently change this contribution item on the employee record.

To edit employer contributions on a paycheck:

  1. While editing a paycheck (see Editing an Individual Paycheck from a Payroll Batch), click the Contributions subtab.

  2. In the Contributions field, select a contribution item assigned to this employee.

    The read-only Wage Base field displays the employee’s base pay amount.

  3. In the Amount field, enter the amount of this contribution item.

    Note:

    The Manual Entry field displays Yes for each new contribution item you add to this paycheck.

  4. Click Add.

  5. Repeat these steps to add more contribution items for this employee.

  6. Click Save.
