For 1 employee, on the W2 Validation Report, there is a message "Special Codes are deferred comp, but W2 Box Retirement Plan is not checked." that box, however, is checked for the employee and the special code is for box 12 which is assigned to "D". What is odd, is if I look at the UPR10101 for this person they have 2 lines in the table. I compared this person to another person that has a 401k but does not have the error, and they only have 1 line in the table. The first line for the employee that has the issue has the value in the "W2BFPPLN" field as a "1"; the 2nd line has a value of "0". The first line, has the employee's personal information and wages/withholding; the 2nd line has the personal information, but no wages/withholding and field "W2BFSTTL" has a value of "A". This person only contributed to their 401k once in December. Data in the UPR10104 looks OK, the employee is only listed once.

I have the same question (0)After talking to Microsoft, this situation has been seen before even though everything is fine with the W2. Due to 3 local taxes this employee is subject to, 2 W2's are generated in order to display all of them (2 local taxes on the first W2, and the 3rd local tax on the second W2). The second line (=the 2nd W2) in UPR10101 for this employee has a value of zero in the W2BPPPLN (Retirement Plan unchecked); whereas the 1st line has a value of 1 (Retirement Plan checked).
