Sage 100

PR v4.4 - Any one have a tried and true method of importing bonus payroll and calculating manual FED and State Taxes? I had a method that used to work, but doesn't any longer. Throwing in the towel other wise.

I haven't done this since 3.71, but at that point it needed a program @LeeGraham wrote to be run after the import to fix things.

not much has changed...

I have someone who imports both earnings/deductions AND taxes from an outside payroll vendor each week - wouldn't that be about the same thing?

Our program read the PR6 check amount and set the PR6 total-taxes figure. A group of statements based on 10 expected check amounts reset the check amount and total taxes. Ex: IF PR6(11)=1000 THEN LET PR6(11)=800 (check total),PR6(6)=200 (total taxes). Very round figures.

Perhaps we can flesh this out a bit more and come up with an Evernote write. @BethBowers method could work. I came up with a couple workarounds but each fell short at the end. Client needs are simple (?). Pay a grossed up Bonus, zero FIT, ZERO SIT, withhold mandatory FICA/Medicare and calculate deductions based on deduction period. I thought I had it working today but I couldn't Sage to calculate the Employer FICA/MEDICARE amounts. Client is issuing 260 bonus checks and must manually change FIT/SIT to zero.

Wait, why don't you just use an Earnings code that uses the Supplemental rate and change that rate to 0?

MMmmmmmm

OMG Beth - That works!!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank You!!!!!
