When I create the ICESA Unemployment Report, the Taxable Wage amount for most employees is $0.

Most employees have already met the taxable wage base for the year and no more tax is owed for these employees.
Review the Taxable Wage Limit value used on the Generate define.
- If it's correct, the Taxable Wages of $0 is correct in this scenario and no additional steps are necessary. Submit the report.
- If it is incorrect, correct it and re-Generate.
Taxable Wage Limit is a limit for the year, and not the quarter. Once an employee reaches the defined Taxable Wage Limit, no more tax is owed.
Example:
Taxable Wage Limit = $12,000. This means that the organization is responsible for paying unemployment tax on the first $12,000 for each employee.
Employee John Smith earns $12,500 in Quarter 1 and $10,500 in Quarter 2.
In the Quarter 1 report, Taxable Wages = $12,000 and the limit is met for this emp.
In the Quarter 2 report, Taxable Wages = $0 because the limit was already met for this emp in Quarter 1.
