Parameter Definitions

You set up your state tax information in the (L5) State Payroll Tables screen. The system uses the information in this screen to calculate state withholding tax. While preset parameter options are provided when you receive the DDMS system, percentages and amounts vary from state to state. Therefore, you must verify the percentages and amounts that apply to your state. For more information, contact the proper authorities in your state.

 

You can set up separate parameters for each general ledger location (profit center). Begin by verifying whether the preset options for location 1 are suitable for your business needs. After you have set the parameters for location 1, set up separate parameters for each additional location that you run differently than location 1. If you do not set up separate parameters for a particular location, the parameters set for location 1 are used for that location.
