Payroll direct deposit for this week is pending already but not final as our payday is Thursday and the deduction happens on Wednesdays.
I go to the employees, click on the employee, go to Paycheck list, click this week's paycheck, click 'make adjustment,' click edit, click edit again.
Now on the edit paycheck page, scroll down to - Employee deductions subheading, add $30 of missing contributions to whatever currently calculated there - [Retirement Contribution Employee, 401k, Simple IRA etc]. (Reminder, $30 is 3% of the $1,000 bonus from last week)
Scroll down further on the edit paycheck page to - Company-paid contributions. add $30 of missing contributions to - [Retirement Contribution Company, 401k, Simple IRA etc].
--this second one will not stay the new amount-- see edit notes below.
Same general principle for all employees, but most have 3% company matching their minimum 3% personal contribution. Some employees put in 7% for instance and everywhere in between.
How do I get the new 'Company Contribution' amount to stick/save? It reverts back to 3%.
--Edit-- For the first few employees I would change in their - profile then - deductions & contributions to whatever the new needed contribution was for this week as a 'flat rate' for company contribution. Then switching it back after each employee when the check was already edited and saved. This last paycheck edit I was able to do like I describe above, without editing anything under employee profile. So that makes it a couple steps faster but still a lot of work for something that should be able to be done when running a bonus check!
If you have an easier way to do this next time, I'm all ears. Between phones and customers today this has been a challenge to get done and costly since I could be doing other work.
Thanks for your help.
