Training Tidbit: Is there a way to set the order for how the information prints in Box 14 on W2s?

Yes, to set the default order for how the information prints in Box 14 on W2s, complete the W2 Box 14 Default Order option.  The W2 Box 14 Default Order option is accessed from the Options menu within the Deduction File or the Pay Code File in Payroll, and is used to set the default order for how the Box 14 items will post and print on the W2s.  Once the W2s are generated, the order of the items in Box 14 can be edited for an individual employee within the Employee W2s option, if needed.  Reminder, only nine items will post to Box 14 for an employee, with only the first four of those posted items actually being printed on the W2.

For instructions on completing the W2 Box 14 Default Order option, refer to the Defining W2 Box 14 Default Order topic in the Help File, or click the image (link) below to view a tutorial.
