FAQ: I should not have selected Social Security or Medicare on a deduction. How do I fix taxes?
I have a deduction setup and I should not have selected Social Security or Medicare. How do I fix the taxes?
Complete deduction/tax adjustments for both the Social Security and Medicare taxes for the applicable employees as follows: enter 0 and No Action for the Employee and Employer fields, enter the amount withheld for the incorrectly setup deduction in the Gross Amount field, and select Decrease Amount or Gross as the Gross Action. Then include the batch of deduction/tax adjustments in the next payroll cycle for the employees in order to reduce the gross wages for Social Security and Medicare taxes by the specified amounts. Refer to the Entering Deduction/Tax Adjustments topic in the Help File for detailed instructions on completing a deduction/tax adjustment.
