Tip: To lock a column in place so that it does not move while scrolling the information in the grid, click the pushpin located to the right of the desired column heading. Once the pushpin has been selected for a column, the pushpin will appear vertical to indicate the column is locked, and the locked column will move to the left and appear in front of all unlocked columns. To unlock a column, click the pushpin again; the pushpin will appear horizontal to indicate a column is unlocked. If the screen is closed and re-opened, or the Save button is clicked (if applicable), the settings for the pushpins will go back to the defaults.
For each deduction to include when generating the information, click the box under the appropriate category to the left of the Deduction ID in the Deductions List. A checkmark will appear in the box if the deduction is selected under a category. Select the Gross Earnings column if an Add type deduction or a Payment In Kind type deduction is taxable. Select the Flex Deduction column if a deduction is a flex 125 deduction (pre-tax to FIT, SIT (if applicable), Social Security, and Medicare). Select the TSA column if a deduction is a tax-sheltered annuity (pre-tax to FIT and SIT (if applicable)). Select the Retirement column if a deduction is a retirement deduction for your state's retirement system and is pre-tax for FIT and SIT (if applicable).
Note: The Gross Earnings column is only enabled for Add and Payment In Kind type deductions. The Flex Deduction, TSA, and Retirement columns are enabled for all deduction types except Add and Payment In Kind type deductions. Deductions defined as a Percent of Net type will not appear in the Deductions List.
Tip: Deductions defined with a Deduction type that are paid entirely by the employer (board) or have an employee share that is taxable (processed after taxes) will not be selected for any category (column). If needed, review the tax cross references for a deduction in the Deduction File to help in determining if the deduction should be selected for a category.
Click the Save button.
Click the Pay Codes tab to select the appropriate categories for the pay codes to include when generating the information.
For each pay code to include when generating the information, click the box under the Gross Earnings column to the left of the Pay Code ID in the Pay Codes List. A checkmark will appear in the box if the pay code is selected. Select the Gross Earnings column if an Add type, Contract type, or Payment In Kind type pay code is taxable. For example, if an Add type or Contract type pay code is used to pay taxable wages, select the pay code; however, if an Add type pay code is used for non-taxable reimbursements, such as a pay code defined for mileage reimbursements, do not select the pay code. Select the Gross Earnings column if a Deduction type pay code is pre-tax or non-taxable and must be subtracted from the Gross Earnings formula (a Deduction type pay code is considered pre-tax or non-taxable if the taxes are selected in the cross references in the Pay Code File). To select the Gross Earnings column (field) for all of the pay codes, click the Select All button located above the Pay Codes List.
Tip: If needed, review the tax cross references for a pay code in the Pay Code File to help in determining if the pay code should be selected; if the taxes are selected in the Cross References List for a pay code, then select the pay code under the Gross Earnings column on this screen.
If applicable, select the Leave Pay column (field) for a pay code if it is defined as an applicable leave pay code (one that should be reported as Leave Pay on the View Data tab). A checkmark will appear in the box if the field is selected.
