Description of Issue
We have used a single pay code to track any leave for any reason with COVID. With the new Box14 A, B and C values, do we need to break out the wages for each kind of leave?
Context
- Munis
- Pay Master
- Employee Accumulators
- W-2 Processing
Cause
Resolution
Sites will need to know how to categorize COVID leave wages based on the following:
- Box 14A: SICK LV WAGES SBJT TO THE $511/DAY LIMIT
- Box 14B: SICK LV WAGES SBJT TO THE $200/DAY LIMIT
- Box 14C: EMERGENCY FAMILY LEAVE WAGES
If new pay codes need to be created for each category:
- Go to Pay Master (Payroll>Payroll Setup>Pay Master)
- Click Add. Define pay code, description, and other required applicable fields.
- Choose the appropriate Box 14 W-2 Code from the W-2 Code drop down.
- Click Accept.
- Repeat steps 2-4 if other pay codes need to be created for other Box 14 W-2 Codes.
Once the employee wages have been determined for each pay code a Yearly Accumulator Import can be processed to import in the yearly accumulators for the new pay code wages.
- Create an Excel .CSV file with the applicable employee numbers, Pay codes, Hours and Employee Gross.
- Depending on Munis Version, either a Form Definition or Custom Template will need to be created for the import.
- Go to Employee Accumulators. (Payroll>Payroll Administration>Employee Accumulators)
- Click Import in the toolbar.
- Click Define.
- Locate the created Excel .CSV import file and select the Form or Custom Template.
- Define the applicable Year, Type and Pay/Deduction fields.
- Click Accept. Click Output-Post.
- Review the Proof for accuracy before applying the update.
