Re: Will HIRE Act exempt wages automatically be calculated and included in Box 12 for W2 (after the Year End update)? What if it should be, but isn't showing up as expected?
Hello,
I'm assuming that you do have some employees designated as an Hire Act Employee in Employee maintenance in payroll. If so, then perhaps the year end updates were not applied to the database correctly as the wages should appear in Box 12. It is important that the scripts be applied according to the instructions on the year end update download page.
I would think you should go through the instructions again and rerun the scripts. Start with the first script (Select count(chknbr) from PRDoc where S4Future10 > 0) and then follow the instructions according the results to receive.
If reapplying the udpates doesn't resolve the issue, try running the statement below.
UPDATE p SET S4Future10 = e.S4Future09
FROM PRDoc p JOIN Employee e
ON p.EmpId = e.EmpId
WHERE e.StrtDate >= '02/03/2010' AND e.StrtDate <= '12/31/2010'
AND e.S4Future09 = 1
AND p.ChkDate >= '03/19/2010' and p.chkdate<= '12/31/2010'
