Hi, 

Appreciate your help on this.  we are setting up the Deduction and Benefits for vacation and we encountered this concern. 

Context:  Vacation should be set as Percentage of gross wages and should be taxable.  In Acumatica payroll, when the Affects tax Calculation box is ticked, the Percentage Custom in the Calculation Method is not available. 

Note:  We cannot use the Amount per hour because the hourly rate may vary and we may need to calculate it manually in every paycheck. 

 

Thank you.

It will be taxable as long as it is a payable benefit and you set it up on the Union Local screen.  You won’t have to check the affects taxable flag.

In 2024 R2, it is possible to setup a Percent of Custom calculation for a Union Vacation Benefit by checking the Payable Benefit.  NOTE: You MUST also fill out the Applicable Wage tab AND add it to the Union Local setup screen.

@tsnyder16  The vacation set up must be taxable and if we tick the Affects Tax Calculation the percent of custom is not available

Hi,

2025R1 will allow you to set up a percentage of custom deductions and benefits, even when 'Affects Tax' is checked.
