Error: Tax amounts do not match

Issue

An employee has year-to-date tax amounts that do not match the employee and employer transactions. 

 

Explanation

The employee tax amount should match the employer tax amount. If the employee year-to-date tax amount doesn't match the employer year-to-date tax amount, it may mean an employee pay code was set up incorrectly. 

 

Solution

To fix this issue, check the employee pay code setting for the pay code that's listed in the error report. (Modify Existing Employees > Pay Codes tab)
