Employee Self Service Tax Withholding Page Enhancement for Redwood Experience

Your employees will find it easier to see and update their tax withholding info now that the Employee Self Service Tax Withholding page has been recreated for the Redwood experience.

  • This page has separate tabs for Federal and Regional info.  Each provides full details by default, so there's no need to open or close sections.

  • Employees with multiple tax cards can switch cards at the top of the page.

  • Required fields display Required next to them when in Edit mode.

  • The deep link now takes employees to their self service tax withholding landing page:  Oracle Menu > Tools > Deep Links > Tax Withholding.

This feature makes it easier for employees to view and update their tax withholding info.

Steps to Enable

To enable the enhanced page:

  1. Start the Manage Administrator Profile Values task.

  2. Search for and select the ORA_PAY_CALCULATION_CARD_VBCS_ENABLED profile option.

  3. Select Yes in Profile Value.

  4. Click Save and Close.

  5. Add roles to people with custom employee types.

People with the predefined Employee role automatically have access to this page.

If you have a custom employee role, add these duty roles to it.

  • Role with US Employee Portrait Gallery display name

  • Update US W-4 privilege

For further info, see Employee (Abstract Role) in the Help Center.

Tips And Considerations

You must have enabled the Redwood Experience UI.  To enable any Redwood page, set the ORA_HCM_VBCS_PWA_ENABLED (Enable VBCS Progressive Web Application User Interfaces across HCM application) central profile option to Y.
