There are several reasons the taxable wages could be incorrect:
- Is the employee’s Tax screen set to withhold additional money for FWT or SWT? Review the employee’s tax screen (KE0015) on the Employee Record (KE0001).
- Is the Earnings Code set up to Block Additional Taxes. (Review the Earnings Code on KE0038.)
- Are the deductions or benefits for this employee set up correctly for taxation? Review the tax exempt flags on the Deduction/Benefit Maintenance Screen (KE0299) (Other Payroll Functions -> Payroll Cycle Reports).
