Updating federal and state gross wages on W-2s
Updating federal and state gross wages on W-2s
Description of Issue
I found an employee who has the wrong federal and state wages on the W-2 Register. What is the best way to fix this?
Context
- Munis
- Employee W-2
- Employee Accumulators
- W-2 Register
Cause
Incorrect Accumulators.
Resolution
- Go to Employee Accumulators. (Payroll>Payroll Administration>Employee Accumulators)
- Click Search. Define Employee, Year and Deduction Code (3000 and 4000). Click Accept.
- We recommend updating the accumulators at the Monthly level, however in this scenario it was not known which month the issue was present, so it was adjusted on the Yearly Accumulator.
- Navigate to the desired Monthly or Yearly accumulator. Click update. Make adjustments. Click Accept.
- Go back into the W-2 Wizard or Employee W-2 and 1099-R. (Payroll>W-2 and 1099 Processing>W-2 Wizard or Employee W-2 and 1099-R)
- Search for employee. Click Update. Adjust necessary deduction (Federal and State) amounts. Click Accept.
- Reprint the W-2 Register if necessary.
- The W-2 Register will pull information currently in the Employee W-2 and 1099-R program.
Note:
- If you have more than a few employees to update and have NOT made a lot of adjustments in the Employee W-2 and 1099-R program, make necessary accumulator adjustments and re-generate the W-2s to pull in the changes.
- If you HAVE made some manual changes in Employee W-2 and 1099-R program, if you re-generate the W-2s, those changes will be lost.
