Taxes

Hi there, @matsu.

 

Let me help you fix your issue today. I'll recommend running a payroll report if there's a deduction for STT for all employees.  We'll need to update your tax table.

 

If there's none, we'll need to create a liability adjustment. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Route to Employees, then Payroll Taxes and Liabilities.
  2. Choose Adjust Payroll Liabilities.
  3. In the Date and Effective Date fields, choose the last paycheck date of the affected month or quarter.
  4. In the adjustment for: Choose Employee Adjustment top to correct your employee's YTD info. Then select the employee's name. Do this even if the item being adjusted is a company-paid item. 
  5. Below the Item name column, select the payroll item you want to adjust. 
  6. Enter the Amount of the adjustment.
    • If the item is under-withheld, enter a positive amount to increase.
    • If the item is over-withheld, enter a negative amount to decrease.
  7. Enter the amount under the Income Subject to Tax column if you need to make a wage base adjustment.
  8. Below Memo, type in a note about the adjustment for reference.
  9. Click Accounts Affected, then OK.
    • Select Do not affect accounts to leave balances unchanged for the liability and expense accounts. The adjustment will only change the year-to-date amounts on your payroll reports.
    • Select Affect liability and expense account if you want the transaction to reflect in the liability and expense accounts.
  10. To close the Affect Accounts window click OK, and then select Next Adjustment if you'll need to enter an additional employee that has adjustment. If not, click OK to save settings.
