Witholding Company Tables

I can not get PT to find the 06 tax.

I have this in the company tables.

I have it set up exactly the same way as I did in 05. I just changed the codes and description to 06 and saved.

It worked last year, why not this year?

Obviously it is a 2006 dated check or the system would not tell me it can not find the 06 tax table.

It is not going to look for 06 for an o5 check.

Sorry but I had to ask I've seen this question posed before and the cause was that the date of the check was still 2005.

Is it one particular tax ID that it can't find or all of them? Also, have you checked to see if the 2006 tax update is fully registered?

It does not have to be registered if you are using the company tables.

I am using the company tables, as I did last year.

I can cahnge the system date to December, 2005, and it prints the paycheck will all of the proper tax deductions.

When I try to pring a 206 check, it prints and deducts only the Social Security, FUTA and SUI taxes.

I created all of these tax tables in the same manner; that is, I brought each of them up as though I were going to edit them and then saved them under the new ID name (FUTA 06, etc.). I then edited them for any changes in the formula.

So they all have the same married, state or federal, etc., keys that the 2005 equivilant tax table had, as they are exact copies.

There is no difference in the ID. M5 or M 05 will work. FICA EE5 or FICA EE 05 will work. FICA EE6 or 06 will not work.

Oh, okay. I have the paid subscription so mine are under the Peachtree maintained tables.

Are you getting an error message that it can't find a Tax ID? If you are not getting an error but zero withheld then I would double check the formulas.

Does your FICA EE6 formula look like this:

TAXABLE_GROSS = YTD_LIMIT (ADJUSTED_GROSS, 94200); ANSWER = -TAXABLE_GROSS * 6.2%

Mine has Tax ID=FICA EE6 with Tax Name=FICA EE 06 if that makes any difference. My employee set up references FICA EE only. I wyould double check that the Tax Names still match your employee setup.

It sounds like you are setting things up correctly. My only thought is that there might be something corrupted with the ones that it is not finding. I would delete those and recreate them.

I get the error message for each tax deduction it can not find and after they are all gone, zeros for those same items.

The Tax ID is what counts. You can put "Monkey's Uncle" in the name column and it would make no difference.

Claude, that last statement isn't exactly correct. It's the name field that's most important. The ID doesn't mean anything. The most critical piece is that at the end of the name field you have a space, then the two digit year (06). That space 06 is what PT looks for.
