When you use a payroll item with the wrong Tax Tracking Type, You need to edit the Tax tracking type and change the set-up to pre-tax.
Here's the best way to edit your items:
- Go to Lists, then select Payroll Item List.
- Double-click the incorrect payroll item set-up.
- Edit the Payroll item, proceed to Tax tracking, and modify it to pre-tax.
- Once done, click Next, choose a Calculate option based on quantity, and verify all the information.
- When you receive a message to update the transaction, confirm it and click the Finish button.
Meanwhile, if last year's transaction is also affected, you need to run a payroll check-up and edit the PC date to correct the set-up of your payroll items.
