Setting up GP Local Tax which is before Tax Sheltered Deductions

Posted on by David Layten 1,819

I am setting up Payroll and HR for a customer that has used GP for GL and Payables for over 13 years. My issue is that the customer has a few local taxes that are calculated after the Tax Sheltered deductions are taken out. While I know that I can setup Deductions in GP to be sheltered from Local Tax, this will not work as the majority of the employees of this organization are subject to a Local Tax that does not recognize tax sheltered deductions.

I do not want to have to setup different deduction codes for these employees. Is there a viable option to get this working?

Thanks,

David

    Hi,

    You can change the default values at the employee level if you want. So, you can use the same Code and just change the taxability items. I haven't run through an example, but you might give it a shot if it seems workable to you.

    Kind regards,

    Leslie

    Leslie,

    Thanks for your response. While this will work for some employees, I have one scenario where an employee has tow local taxes. One that is calculated before Tax Sheltered Deductions and one that is after Tax Sheltered Deductions.

    Any idea on how to handle that one?

    David,

    Just thinking out loud here, but I have used Garnishment deductions to accomplish some weirdo things like this. It works because you can define 'wages' in the Earnings wages setup. You'd have two garnishments, and each would be tied to a different Earnings wages calculation against which to apply the percentage. How is the tax calculated?

    Kind regards,

    Leslie
