Select Payroll Main menu > Payroll Tax Calculation. This task can also be accessed at the completion of Payroll Data Entry.

Overview

After Payroll Data Entry is completed, but before the checks are printed, it is necessary to calculate withholding and employer paid taxes. The Payroll module performs federal, state, and local tax calculations automatically for all records selected for payment. For records whose taxes have been manually entered, only the employer taxes are calculated. For direct deposit checks, the amounts allocated to each direct deposit bank account are calculated at this time.

You must perform payroll tax calculations, regardless of the setting in the Manual Tax check box and your selection in the Print Check field on the Payroll Data Entry Main tab. Payroll tax calculations include the calculation of employer tax expenses.

When the tax calculations are complete, a message appears prompting you to print the Data Entry Audit Report. Click Yes to print the report.
