OSAS Payroll – Reconciling Federal State and Local Pay

 

Employee history contains monthly totals for all earnings codes and tax withholdings.  To check federal, state and local totals print the following reports:

 

Periodic Processing

            Quarterly Withholding Report

                        Gross and Summary Options

Generally the Federal, State and Local Wages should

agree. If they don’t agree, tax exclusion in your Codes Maintenance – Withholdings needs to be updated. If you need assistance getting the wages to agree, we can send you a program that will make them all agree based on the federal wages.

                       

Quarterly Employers Tax report

            Summary Option

SUI wages seem to vary from state to state. 

Gross wages should equal

SUI Earnings + Excess SUI in some states.

                                                Gross Wages – Cafeteria Amounts should

                                                            equal SUI Earnings + Excess SUI in other states.

 

Gross Wages – Cafeteria Amounts should

                                                            equal FUTA Earnings + Excess FUTA.

 

If you need assistance getting the wages to agree, we can send you a program that will make them all agree based on the gross wages.
