Payroll Deductions

[TBRYAN]

I am trying to add extra state withholdings but I can't get it to work right, when I do it like Peachtree's web site says to do, GA state tax is only the amount of the deduction or nothing at all. I know you have to use the Local deduction column but I am missing something. Can anyone help?

What version of Peachtree are you using? That should be a very simple task.

I am using Peachtree Complete Ver 9 (2002)

Now, tell me exactly what you are trying to accomplish. I will try to walk you through.

I have an employee who wants an additional $5.00 taken out for GA state, but I can't get it to work right.

Formula for additional local withholding: ANSWER = ANSWER – EMP_LOCAL_NUMBER

[TBRYAN]

THIS IS HOW I HAVE DONE IT:
GASIT S1
GASIT 01 (this will change for 2002)
doesn't appear on menus
Gov.- State GA
Type- deduction

formula

ANSWER = - PRORATE (TABLE (ANNUAL (ADJUSTED_GROSS) - 2300 - IF (EMP_STATE_ALLOWANCES = 0, 0, 2700) - (EMP_STATE_NUMBER * 2700)));
ANSWER = ANSWER - EMP_LOCAL_NUMBER


On the employee general screen, I put $5.00 in the local add. w/h
but when I done payroll it only takes $5.00 out for the state.

Sorry, I have been busy, I will test this for you and see what I come up with.
