Multiple WC Codes On A Paycheck

We are having an issue with the paycheck assigning separate workers’ comp codes to different work locations. As you can see, we have 2 work locations on this paycheck.

 

We want separate workers’ comp codes for each work location. However, currently, the system uses the same code with different deduction codes because of the 2 different states involved.

I understand that there are 2 separate deduction codes, but when we go to report these wages, we have to use 1 rate per WORKERS COMP code. When we report it to our insurance, they do not care about our deductions codes--just their WORKERS’ COMP code.

 

Does anyone know how to fix this? I want to be able to pull the workers’ comp report and use the numbers in Acumatica to report to our insurance. I can’t find a way to do it currently.

@SEhnle, I see in this case you have IL and IA, which are NCCI States, and should use the same WComp codes. Because rates may vary by State, you should use two separate benefit codes (one per State).
 
The same logic is maintained in our Workers' Compensation by Code report (PR641040). It is created per State. You need to change the filtering criteria so that the report is generated only by the code.

      Hi SEhnle,

      You can setup different rates per state.  That should let you accomplish what you want unless I misunderstood your question.

        Currently, that is how we are set up and that is why there are two different rates in the paycheck in the image above. However, the WC Code is the same code (see picture of paycheck above). The reason there are 2 rates, is because we have different benefit codes for each state in the same WC Code. In addition to separate Benefit Codes, we want it to also separate unique WC Codes per state.

          and of course you can export the report for IA and IL from ACUMATICA and calculate consolidated numbers in the Excel

            I appreciate your help! I understand how it is supposed to work in Acumatica now--the Workers’ Comp codes should not be linked to a state--just the deduction codes. We have changed this and should be good to go.
