COVID FICA is not calculating correctly on regular check with pre-tax deductions

COVID FICA is not calculating correctly in employee's regular check with pre-tax health deductions. 

Payroll Start and Status

Earnings and Deductions 

When pretax deductions are exempt from regular FICA and COVID FICA, the COVID Pay and COVID FICA should be on it's own separate check.

1. Go into Earnings and Deductions. (Payroll>Payroll Processing>Payroll Start and Status. Search for warrant. Click Change in the Menu. Click Earnings and Deductions) 

2. Search for the employee. Delete COVID Pay and COVID FICA. Leave pre-tax health deductions on regular pay check. 

3. Click Add in the toolbar. Define employee number and define 1 in the Check field. This second check should contain the COVID Pay and COVID FICA. 

It is very highly recommended entities contact the IRS for recommendations on not withholding the employer portion of FICA with Sick Leave Pay as most sites are continuing to pay the employer portion.
