Parameter Definitions

You enter federal tax information in the (L4) Federal Payroll Tables screen. The system uses the information in this screen to calculate social security and federal income tax withholdings.

 

Preset parameter options are provided when you receive the DDMS system. However, federal tax calculations are subject to change. Therefore, you may determine that the preset options need to be changed to meet current government requirements. Begin by verifying whether the preset options are suitable for your business needs. If one or more of the preset options are not acceptable, change them using the field definitions that follow.

Note: Some of these fields have a major influence on how your system operates. We recommend that you review certain of these fields before going live.
