Timecard - Time Zone Error

Has anyone else experienced incorrect time zones being logged in the timecard from Appointment Logs? We are seeing incorrect time zones even for the same customer on the same day. I have reported this and the suggested solution is to manually change our settings on our mobile devices. Development team does not think this is an issue and is not moving forward to fix. If it is happening to others we need to get it reported.

Does anyone have have experience with ExakTime app?

We are in process of implementing Acumatica. We currently use ExakTime to capture and report labor activities in the field. I’m trying to get an understanding of what details/fields ExakTime provides for upload into Acumatica. We are scheduling a call with ExakTime to discuss but thought I’d reach out on here to see if anyone has experience with the Acumatica/ExakTime integration.

Payroll Bank Rec Issue

I’m not sure if this is a glitch in Acumatica or a setup issue on our end. Bank reconciliation is showing the direct deposit batch total as one line on the bank rec (which is how we have it setup in the bank and what we want) and no individual pay stubs; but once the bank rec is released, the individual pay stubs show in bank transaction details as cleared but not reconciled. In next reconciliation the individual pay checks show up for some reason as ready to be reconciled with the cleared box checked. Users cannot reconcile the individual pay stubs because they have already reconciled the whole direct deposit batch in the previous reconciliation. It is like a flip gets switched once the direct deposit batch is reconciled and released that marks the pay stubs as cleared but not reconciled and then allows individual the pay stubs to then show up in the bank rec. I can’t figure out why the individual pay stubs are 1-not being marked reconciled when the full batch is reconciled, and 2-why

Payroll Posting Settings Based on Projects

During the payroll training this week their was a discussion about the general ledger accounts for earnings expense, tax expense and benefit expense being driven by a project. I was wondering if in the design, you will be supporting non-construction based projects or only the construction edition? From what was discussed, it sounded like these accounts would come from the cost centers, which I don’t think is part of the standard project edition. As a follow up, it would be helpful to provide some level of coding for “x” projects. If the accounts are going to be based on projects where do the non- project costs go?

Multiple Companies and their State Payroll Tax IDs

I have multiple companies under one tenant that are all processing payroll under their individual federal tax IDs. Where do I store the individual company’s state withholding and unemployment IDs?From my understanding, the details are on the Company Setup during the Aatrix processing of reports but where are these details stored to tell Aatrix what to put on these reports?

Does the "Time Card is Required" flag on the Employee (Organization) screen have any functionality behind it or is it informational only?

Does anyone know if the "Time Card is Required" flag on the Employee (Organization) screen has any functionality behind it or if it is just there for informational purposes? I have not seen anything in payroll requiring a time card, but I didn't know if there was a warning or error produced somewhere else in the system if that flag is on and no time card is entered.

Employees work for different Customers in different states. Some of these customers are responsible to handle the workers compensation for the employees who work at their location(s). Is there a proper setup or best practice for this?

When can Work Locations on Employee Payroll Settings be removed?

For all field employees, the client must add every project’s work location to their Employee Payroll Settings. After a Project/Job is completed, is it safe to remove the Work Location from the Employee Payroll Settings or will the missing work location cause issues when running any certified or payroll reports?

Payroll Issues- Local Taxes not posting and cannot create new PR/DR batches

We are very new to Acumatica and going live in January. Because of the volume of new installs, we couldn’t get consultation to setup the PR system. So please forgive the basic nature of these questions. I’ve run a full PR cycle with actual hours and the results were very impressive. With the exception of the local LST and EIT not calculating the 1% or 1.00 per week. I’ve updated taxes, assigned to employees, even manually adjusted without success. On top of this after restoring a bu to rid the db of the pr cycle, I no longer have the “+” sign to add a PR/DD cycle. Any help is appreciated. 2020R1 204 version. Thank you

G/L recap before releasing payroll checks

Anyone know if there is a way to print or view a report/inquiry of the GL posting of a payroll check before it is released? I keep getting a G/L out of balance error when I go to release the check. Not finding any answers in knowledgebase or general community search. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Is there a good point person from Acumatica to ask payroll questions of or is this the best place to post questions of this type? Thanks Kathy
