Is there a way to define  Stop salary override features  for  a specific employee or specific department / group Thnx, Vijay

We implemented a Roth 401k plan in 2010.  On the deduction code set up, we have the employee after tax deduction code set to tax status 16 for 401(k) Roth and the Company Match after tax deduction code set to tax status blank or aftertax.  Because of this, we cannot link the deductions.  And when we process some manual checks without the employee deduction, the company match is still taken.  This has to be corrected. To correct this, we want to update the tax status for the Company Match ...

We pay for our employee's life insurance through the last day of the month in which they are eligible for the coverage. So I have the benefit rules set up to terminate the benefit on the last day of the month on a term action. My question is, should BN150 be calculating GTL for a terminated employee through the last day of the month We had all of our term statuses set up as NP/NB, so then the BN150 error report showed that the GTL couldn't be created for the employee even though the benefit had...

Does anyone know if Lawson has anything that can help with CMS Data Match reporting electronic submission

We are trying to avoid doing 941x for payroll payment void/reissues that relate to prior quarter. A suggestion was made to create a deduction where we credit the net amount for the employee and create the payment on the pr80.  The printed check would have just the net amount - taxes aren't affected.  This works great.  The question I have is what to do if anything with the overstated net amount in the payroll history  We use ADP and are charged for the 941x's.  We could send 'amendment data' t...

Is anyone using the PR297 to print W2s If so, what setup do you have in place to print successfully from Lawson in terms of LID and the PR297 job itself Any help is much appreciated.

Hello Forum Members: I am wondering if anyone is using PA09, PA08.1, PA08.2 PA08.3 to document job descriptions.    It is there but seems quite limiting so I just want to know if others are using - and if you are using it does it work for you Thanks Shane

Hello Everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to use the Query Wizard to query on HR USER FIELDS and then also utilize the Upload Wizard to mass populate this field on the HR11 I have been trying to, but always receive a message stating there is no data. Here is the scenario: We are converting one of our facilities to a new time and attendence system and the new system needs to have a daily hours field in it to properly process certain rules we have set up. In Lawson 9.0.1, we created ...

Does anyone know how I can set up a union deduction that uses the following formula using the current options in Lawson: = Hourly rate x 2.5 I don't know how to get the system to look at the hourly rate without having to set up  a 'custom calculation' Thanks,

Since our 457 B plan was set up in Lawson in 2002, the Apply Maximum Limit field on the BN15 has always been set to 'Y' so that the deductions would stop at the first limit met. Recently, our plan sponsor told us that the 457B deductions should not count toward the max comp or max annual additions limit. So, I went into out test system and attempted to change the Apply Maximum Limit field to 'B' so that neither the max comp nor the max annual additions would apply. However, when I hit t...

How do you inactive deductions in Lawson that are no longer being used

We are trying to implement the NACHA IAT format for a few employees.  PR160 accomodates this by supplying two files, ACH and IAT, both with all employees included.  We do not want to send the IAT format to the bank for all employees because it costs significantly more to process an IAT file with the extra addenda records.  Has anyone figured out how to produce the ACH output with TAPE-IAT format for some employees and the regular TAPE format for the rest

I read an article on mylawson.com that said if we try to use PR189 for a bonus payment that any percentage based 403(b) deductions won't be taken and that we have to use PR89 instead and then enter the time records manually. I just want to make sure before we do this that there is no other way to make PR189 work. Doesn't seem to make sense since every employer that offers a pre-tax retirement plan probably offers a percentage basis plan which renders the PR189 useless. Any thoughts would be appr...

I need to added values on HR04.7 but have been unable to succesfully use addins for this.  I can't find anything on Lawson support that will identify how to correct the errors I am receiving.  I don't want to manually enter hundreds of lines. Thanks for any help,

We have a scholarship program that is offered to employees and nonemployees for positions like nursing. Right now, all this is maintained in a spreadsheet outside of Lawson. We need to get all this information in Lawson. Once upon a time, this information was kept in the PA16.1 Company Property screen BUT it didn't hold ALL the information and didn't track the money that the company was paying out to the employee.  We need the ability to accurately track 1. how much money is being paid out...

Can anyone share how they will be handling the IRS mandated 2012 W-2 reporting of healthcare benefit costs Did anyone report in 2011 when it was not yet required, and if so how did you handle Just checked the Lawson site and saw the statement of direction related to Aordable Care Act but nothing system specific on reporting. Thanks!

If anyone can post example on how to use the type X custom calculation in BN18.2, greatly appreciated. I searched knowledge base and they are no help.

We are currently using a local bank and have had no issues uploading the achtape file with the following items selected: Create Labels - N Multiple Headers - N Company Name - 1 Originating DFI - 1 Sending Point DFI - 1 Balanced Tape - Blank Batch Entries Max - Blank We are now in the process of changing over to Comerica but they state they cannot read our file.  Is anyone using Comerica and what setup are you using on the ACH tab of the PR160 screen Th...

Okay, so I am trying to do an add in on the lp70.1 screen and I thought I had all the fields I needed: f4 company f6 employee f5 name f10 plan f11 ee grp f12 amount f13 trans type f14 trans type f15 status desc f17 trans date f18 amount type f19 amount type f20 description We are currently not using the LP131 which would do this zeroing out for us automatically of the pennies left on a persons pto. Lawson is saying, 'No line function code entered' which I thought was f18 but ma...

Hi all.  I've posted this before a few years ago with no valid resolution. FLSA states that any discretionary pay must be included in the calculation of overtime. I've worked with several public sector clients who interpret this (and there are court cases supporting) that any additional pay, like Longevity, must be included in the calculation of overtime pay. Longevity is paid in lump sum in December each year.  Where employees are paid via PR16 Step & Grade, we cannot use HR14 Alternate Rate to...

I am testing PR86 and see my check numbers on the PR162 and that's about it.  I understand this process is a void and reissue so nothing needs to be recalculated via a PR140 and the check does not get fed to the PR917, however, what about the check print itself  I noticed the check numbers do not appear on my PR180. I'm hoping someone can share their process so I can get this approved for use. Thanks,Beth

What table has the EEO Category descriptions  i.e. EEO Category 20 is 'Professionals'.  What table can I query to find 'Professionals' - and the rest of the descriptions, of course.

Anyone use non earnings in PR20.4 to reimburse employees for expenses  If so, any 'gotchas' later in balancing payroll
