Training Tidbit: Override Tax Table
Do you have an employee that is requesting to override the tax table for the Federal (and/or State) Income Tax in order to have only a specified dollar amount withheld instead? Or to not withhold any taxes but still accumulate the gross for W2s?
To override the tax table for the Federal (and/or State) Income Tax for an employee, select the Exempt field for the tax on the Taxes screen in the Employee File. To then specify a particular amount to withhold for the tax, complete the Additional Taxes section by selecting the type (Fixed or Percent) and entering the desired amount or percentage in the appropriate pay period field (Every Pay Period, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, or Week 5).
Note: If the Additional Taxes section is not completed, no amount will be withheld for the tax but the gross for the tax will be accumulated and included on the employee’s W2.
For detailed instructions on adding a tax to an employee, see the “Taxes: Completing Taxes Screen in Employee File” topic in the Help File.
