Has anyone come across a client having a new project location, but it is not in the states data base yet, so it is pulling the incorrect taxes for the county, city, etc? If so, how did you handle it and fix it to get the correct taxes pulled in to Acumatica?
Why would there be no hours available on the employees when the front loaded amounts are there?
I would like to set up recurring cell phone reimbursement contributions in Acumatica for employees that receive this monthly. This is done in the first pay cycle of each month. I have created a benefit code in the deductions and benefits screen but I cant figure out how to input the frequency so that i dont have to do 12 individual line items in the employee payroll settings. Any advice on how to accomplish this? TIA

Hi Team,How can we limit the number of hours an employee can work per week? For example, if Mark is supposed to work for 40 hours per week, how can we ensure that he does not work below or above 40 hours per week?How can we restrict an employee from taking more than 80 hours of leave per year? We want to ensure that the employee does not exceed this limit.

Does anyone have a solution for how to setup PTO Banks for Sick and Safe time where it is time earned per 30 hours worked?
I am trying to create a special paycheck to correct a mistake that was made in the current pay period.In the Help Screen it says:“Special: Paychecks of this type are used for specific payments, such as bonuses. An employee may have as many special paychecks as necessary for one pay period.”Problem: I am able to CREATE and CALCULATE the paycheck, but I am not able to “CREATE PAYROLL PAYMENT”.The paycheck is there with an “Open” status as you can see here: I can go into “Process Payroll Documents” and “Recalculate”. It does show up there:However, when I go to “Create Payroll Payment” It will not show up.Any ideas? I’m stuck. :-)

Employee has worked a few hours in a payweek therefore gross pay is not enough to cover weekly deductions. Acumatica wont calculate paycheck. How do we get Acumatica to take what it can and produce a zero dollar paycheck?
If a per diem is for reimbursed expenses, what should the reporting type be for the earnings code set up? It appears the only option is to mark it as PR-12 Reimbursed Expenses, but as long as the per diem is within federal guidelines, I don’t believe anything should be reported on the W-2 but you can’t leave the “Reporting Type” blank. If it places the full amount paid in Box 12 under Code L, this would be wrong, but it shouldn’t be included in Normal wages either. If I understand the IRS guidelines correctly, if the per diem is non-taxable the only amount that should be reported in Box 12 would be the difference in the per diem paid and the federal per diem rate if the amount paid is higher than the federal rate. I’m no where close to a payroll tax expert, but there has to be a way to pay per diem through payroll without it impacting the employee’s W-2.
Our Company adopted a SIMPLE IRA plan that began funding this month. With just over a year under our belt with Acumatica, I came to the Community to get some setup pointers but didn’t find any. With that, I began experiments in our test environment and developed the setup that was eventually implemented in the live company environment. I thought a few of the procedures and observations made along the way might be helpful to someone else.G/L Considerations: The setup will require a couple of new accounts, a SIMPLE IRA liability account (for accrual of deductions and benefits) and an Employee Retirement Benefits expense account for recognition of the matching expense.One plan, four Deduction/Benefit Codes: I set our SIMPLE IRA with four Deduction/Benefit codes for four possible situations:Employee under 50 years old, Deduction expressed as percent of gross. Employe under 50 years old, Deduction expressed as fixed amount Employee 50 years or older, Deduction expressed as percent of gro
I am receiving the following error code:PR Error: Sub ID value wasn’t found automatically and can not be empty. I think this is the issue, not sure. Account Settings:Use Earnings Account from: Labor Item (we just changed this to look to Labor Item)Combine Earning Sub From _____________________ (what letter should be entered here)
We have a scenario where employees receive tips that are paid on the day the employee works so the amount of tips received does not need to be paid with the normal payroll but they do need to report the amount for withholding taxes. I did not see a way to use Tips as an earning code that would not increase the amount of the net pay. Has anyone else had a similar scenario or have a recommendation on how to handle the tips?
When you create a Weekly time card entry for a number of users that belong to the workgroup.The timecard entry is created with an On Hold status. A User is required to submit the timecard to remove it from the On Hold status. For our customer this is workers who does not have access to Acumatica hence an administrator need to update the timecard entries. Is it possible to set the Workgroup timecard entries to Balance status? I am considering import scenario or review Action automation to update the timecards.
Hello, we are working to setup Acumatica Payroll and running into an error when setting up payroll preferences. The screen is checking for a specific option in the Time Posting option box, but its not showing up on our form and giving us the below error. Any ideas? Possibly a feature I need to enable\disable? Thanks,Adam
We have one employee choosing to max out his SIMPLE IRA deduction limit for the year. The employee is over 50, so the deduction limit for 2023 is $19,000 (15,500 normal limit + 3,500 “catch-up” provision). The deduction is set up with the higher limit for those 50 and older:The employee’s individual setup reflects the higher limit:Processing the employee’s check, today, Payroll limited the deduction to $500.00, thereby limiting the employee’s cumulative deduction to $15,500. The employee has $3,500.00 remaining by statute.Does anyone have any idea why Acumatica Payroll is overriding the Deduction setup as if the employee were under 50 years of age? More to the point, does anyone have any idea how to fix this so the remaining allowable deductions can be made prior year end?
