Pay Code - Employer portion

 

The employer portion of a pay code refers to the settings that calculate an amount, rate, or percentage for the employer's contribution.  On a pay code, there is an employee portion and an employer portion. The employee portion calculates the employee's contribution and the employer portion calculates the contribution made by the employer. Some pay codes, such as regular pay, only have the employee portion set up. Some pay codes are paid by both the employee and employer, for example, federal withholding tax where the employee and employer pay a percentage of the employee's gross wage. And some pay codes are only paid by the employer. These pay codes do not set up the employee portion of the pay code and only have settings selected on the employer portion of the pay code. 

In most cases, the options on the employer portion of a pay code work like the options on the employee portion of a pay code. You can refer to the instructions for the employee portion for additional informaiton.
