I am working on our annual 401K census data and have run into a bit of a snag in the reports I am using.
I used the Earnings by Employee report and then the Deductions and Benefits by Employee report (for 401K, 401k Match, and Roth) to get the information to include on my reporting. These reports however don’t provide a total figure to use as a double check to what I entered to make sure I keyed everything properly. I am using the parameter of the 2025 year as that is all it asks for.
I thought I would just run a Payroll Summary report in order to get a quick view at my totals as a double-check, but the totals don’t match? I am running it for a transaction date of 1/1/2025-12/31/2025.
My total wages, hours, and even the deductions don’t match. The payroll summary has more somehow? The only one that matched exactly was the Deductions and Benefits by Employee for the 401K. Why would this be?
