      Thanks Graziela! FYI, the link for 3226749 is using the SAP-internal link, not accessible to customers. I realize that none of the new Notes/KBAs are actually available yet.

      Hello team - we recently upgraded our QA box to level B1 (608) and BSI level cyclic h TUBs 92 and noticing a change in the PA tax calculation for a bunch of associates.  The associate lives in NY and works in PA, however there are no (withholding) taxes coming out for PA. In un-upgraded production box (SAP 608 A8; BSI cyclic g TUBs 89), taxes are withheld for PA and NY for the same associate.  In the QA box, the BSI interface is not sending the PA tax type 001 for PA at all . This is happening for others working in PA but living outside.  Anyone noticing this behavior?

      Thanks

      Chandra

      10/20 Edit - just to put a closure to this - the issue was traced to a problem in the tax model due to a missing transport. Once the tax model was fixed, this issue resolved itself.

      Hello All,

      Has anyone had issues with W2C TemSe file for EFW2C form (HR_F_MMREF_2)?

      We have applied the note 3218784 for 941 form updates - this is last update from tax reporter perspective. Our W2C file has below errror while submitting:

      Description:  Must be 1024 bytes for EFW2C files. This condition may also be generated if the previous record is greater than 1024 bytes or if there us a Carriage Return/Line feed within a record

      When I checked and compared against the previously submitted file for differences, RCT record has space between the fields 03(total no.of records) and OT001(011 Total Org. Wages, Tips & OC.)

      RCT record on error file

      RCT%20on%20error%20file

       

      RCT on Successful file

      RCT%20on%20Successful%20file

       

      Any help on this is much appreciated.

      Thanks,

      Hi Jahnavi,

      Just to confirm, you have not yet applied the Year End 2022 Phase I support package? That would be newer than the Q2 Note (and would in fact include it as part of the SP queue).

      Cheers,
      Matt

      Hi Jahnavi,

      Have you applied the Q2/2022 and Q3/2022 Tax Reporter notes yet? There is a change to Oregon's EFW2 file format. Not sure if this is impacting you or not.

      Also, I read Matt Fraser's question on the Phase I Year End note. There are other Tax Reporter OSS notes that will be applied with the Phase I note. Those additional notes may correct your issue, depending on if you have already applied HRSP 608-B1 (just released 10/06/2022).

      Phase I note 3231551 must be applied with HRSP 608-B1 or 604-I3 or 602-L7 (I think I listed the HRSP's correctly -- we're on 608-99 currently and will be updating to 608-B1 or 608-B2).

      Just my thoughts. Hope you get it figured out.

      Hello Cherylnita,

      Please, use the BSI blog for Paid Family Leave topic, I´m copying and paste what I replied there:

      I just talked to Product Owner and BSI is still analyzing the changes with the authorities.
      Once they have all the changes in place SAP will evaluate if any note will be needed or just the update in the Regulatory Bulletin with this just the Sync tool and the Tax Model need to be updated, so there is not need for notes.

      I recommend that you keep tracking of this through the legal change notification app, further information about the legal change app can be found on:

      Hi Sandra,

      I agree with Anna. In our own testing, we've never seen Online W-2s created when PU19 is run in Test Mode, only Productive Mode.

      Also, it looks like your previous question, 3 minutes earlier than this one, is a duplicate?

      Hi Kim,

      See the comment thread below this one between Vamsi, Hemanth, and Chandra. (Vamsi is on my team). We currently have a support ticket open with SAP for this issue.

      Cheers,
      Matt

      Hey Hemanth,

      This seems to be an issue, we have updated the SOC data (T5U28_C) and the form  (HR_F_UNEMP_WA_N) in the backend shows TSOC for position 108. We still see no SOC code populating in the file at position 108, hence raised a support ticket with SAP last Friday and SAP is currently checking this for us.

      Regards,

      Vamsi.

      Hemanth Krishnakumar

      Hi Vamsi,

       

      So the only way to store this is in Table T5U28_C which is same as "T5USO". Here we can define state and the corresponding SOC code.

       

      SOC code will be linked to a position and not to a person number right, so in this case what kind of code change is needed for HR_F_UNEMP_WA_N to query the person then take his position, go to T5USO and pick the corresponding SOC code?

      Author's profile photo Vamsi Yarlagadda
      Vamsi Yarlagadda

      T5U28_C is not like T5USO but it is similar to T5U25 that deals with job IDs and WC code mapping. T5USO is only for storing the list of SOC codes with start and end dates and will be used while updating records in T5U28_C (SOC codes drop down list from T5USO) or while updating the SOC code mapping infotype. If your business team provides you with position and SOC code mapping list then you can mass upload data in T5U28_C or directly in the SOC code mapping infotype using a mass upload program. But if they provide you with job IDs and SOC codes then you have to put extra effort reading position IDs (referring job ID) and then SOC code and mass upload T5U28_C. Also, you have to make sure the file format HR_F_UNEMP_WA_N position 108 SOC code in the configurations should show TSOC and this field should reflect if you run the tax reporter. I see the SOC codes for couple employees showing up in our tax reporter but for few the SOC code is not populating, not sure why. (We are into concurrent employment if that matters) hence raised a support ticket with SAP.

      FYI - this is what we have done - T5U28 (position) / T5USO for WA.  We are already using this combination for Alaska occupational codes; we simply extended this to WA.

      Hello Community,

      I see some comments here about issues on printing the SOC Code on the WA file during the SUI execution.
      Here's three items for you to check which should resolve the issue:

      1) Make sure that note 3246223 is fully implemented on your system (including the pre-requisite notes and manual activities).
      2) Maintain the SOC on view V_T5U28_C for the position of the employee (PA0001-PLANS) whose SOC should be printed on the form.
      3) Ensure that the employee has a valid IT0209 for the given SUI execution.

      Best Regards,
      Carlos

      Hi Carlos Accorsi,Accorsi,

      Is the table V_T5U28_C maintained directly in PROD environment or should we move the entries by a TR from DEV->QA->PROD. The reason is the up-to-date position data will be not available in non-prod environments and makes maintaining the tables difficult in DEV/QA systems and also, we use ECP system for payroll. Please advise.

       

      Thanks,

      Sanjay

      T5U28 entries are typically maintained in each boxes unless you are also transporting OM objects from DEV ->QA->Prod in your ECP.

      Hi Sanjay,

      We are maintaining the SOC codes directly in PRD (and in QAS and DEV). However, as there are a great many of them, we're using LSMW to do a mass upload. I'm not directly involved in this effort, so I don't have many more details for you than this.

      Cheers,

      Hello folks,

      We have mapped our positions to the SOC codes and it is working okay for active employees.  However, we are not seeing it for the Terminated employees.  In our system, our terminated employees are put in the default position 99999999.  I am thinking this is the reason. Are the SOC codes being pulled based on the current (time of run for the SUI report) position?

      If yes, how do you deal with your terminated employees?

      Thank you,

      Ethel

      Hello,

       

      Does anyone notice Off-Cycle Workbench is working weird after SP installation? We've installed them all together upto I4, so I can't pinpoint where it happens, but it takes forever to open and to pull up the EE data if it opens.

      We've applied Notes 3136920/3265766 afterwards. If anyone knows how to fix it, please share.

      Hello Euna,

      I was able to locate note 3206964 which may address your scenario.

      However, please note that this blog is reserved for US Tax Reporter for Year End 2022 topics, hence the Off-cycle Workbench is out of the scope.
      Therefore, for further assistance on that, I recommend you in opening an incident on PY-XX-OC component, or posting a question on the SAP Community with the corresponding tag.

      Per SAP Note 3124528-W4 Legacy Data-Changes in IT210, the withholding format of the original record is no longer determined by the begin date of IT210 and user can elect the withholding format record by the Original/Redesigned check boxes added on IT210. This function was working fine until after we applied support packs for this year.

      After applying support pack notes for 6.08(B1) we are receiving an error on the original withholding format when selecting any filing status from the dropdown menu showing both legacy and current statuses.

      We think sap note 3150056 - TAX: W-4 federal 0161 and 0210 infotypes with partially or no filing status validation for original form format, may have reverted the functions rolled out with note 3124528.

      Just wondering if anyone having this issue before we open a ticket with SAP ONE Support.

      Thank you!

      Are you referring to the issue with filing status 15 - Married, but withhold at higher Single rate?  after note 3124528, only filing status 01 (single) and 02 (legacy married) are allowed in the original format 210. It is not allowing filing status 15.

      Thanks

      Jennifer Massey

      No, I'm not referring to that issue.

      Last year, SAP Note 3124528 allows the ability to select the original format along with the old filing status only filing status 01 (single) and 02 (legacy married) regardless of the beginning date on IT210.  This functionally is no longer working after applying support pack. We are receiving an error instead.

      Hi Jennifer,

      Would Note 3282477 - TAX: Married filing status (02) not allowed in the 0210 infotype for the allowance withholding original format be the fix for the problem?

      Hello, not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but does SAP have any programs or features that allow for 1099 form generating and printing? We currently use a 3rd party standalone software (Accountability). Wondering if SAP has anything that is built-in for this purpose. Thank you!

      Hi Elizabeth,

      If you mean Forms 1099-R, then yes, those are part of Tax Reporter and the Year End Legal Change Note. If you mean Forms 1099-MISC, NEC, etc, that are usually supplied to vendors, contractors, and so on, that question would be handled in a different topic area, as that's not part of HR/Payroll. However, the quick answer is yes, SAP absolutely handles printing 1099s, and you can find the latest legal changes to these forms in Note 3253925.

      Cheers,
      Matt

      Hi Team,

       

      We recently upgraded support pack from H1 TO 14 (we are in TUB level 93/CYCLIC I)

      FROM SUPPORT PACK LEVEL:

      COMPONENT RELEASE SUPPORT PACK LEVEL SUPPORT PACK
      SAP_HR 604 171 SAPKE604H1

       

      TO SUPPORT PACK LEVEL:

      COMPONENT RELEASE SUPPORT PACK LEVEL SUPPORT PACK
      SAP_HR 604 184 SAPKE604I4

       

      After our upgrade we compare our payroll results (PRE-Support pack payroll results vs post support pack payroll results) we find a dollar differences in scenario given below.

       

      An employee works in the state of Mississippi.  This employee has wages from regular and supplemental in one pay period. MS taxes calculated on pre support pack was $39.00, after support pack upgrade from H1 to I4 calculate taxes was $40.00 with a $1.00 difference. Mississippi always gets rounded to the nearest dollar.

      Since there are no upgrades to BSI during our support packs, what causes this rounding to go off and create $1.00 differences. Need your input.

       

      The same happened to employees in West Virginia.

      Please take a look and kindly share your thoughts on this.

      Hello Kanuku,

      I always suggest keeping the Support Package level updated. As this includes changes, not just for Tax Reporter, but for taxes as well. Additionally, after some time, if you don´t apply the Support Package, you will not be able to apply notes due the cut in the Support Package levels.

      You don´t have the rush to apply your Support Package now but is strongly recommended keeping it updated.

      Hi Team,

      We upgraded our system from SAPKE604H1 (Level 171) to SAPKE604I4 (Level 185). 

      when we run off cycle work bench through Transaction code PUOC_10. system generate payment number.

      Payment number is usually the combination of personnel number + the sequence number of the payroll result (5-character) and the sequential number of the payment within the result (3-character).

      Screenshot of same employee off cycle workbench is given below (AFTER SUPPORT STACKS UPGRADE), where you see a different payment number and whole off cycle workbench layout is changed (Please refer to pre and post support stack screenshot).

      We had the PUOC_10 being slowed down or not opening after upgrade is resolved by 3206964 shared by Carlos above.

      But the Payment number part is still showing the same way with DME info. Is this a change to the functionality of how it will be showing going forward or would this be corrected and taken back to how it was displaying the EE number, Sequence number etc?

      The changes were delivered by BSI in Regulatory Bulletin 96.

      Just curious if anyone has implemented these changes for CO and OR and it's working as expected?  Also does anyone know if there are restrictions from withholding this as a retro if we don't get the changes applied by the time we run our first payroll?

      I know we had restrictions with WA, but haven't seen any of those same restrictions mentioned for CO or OR.

      Hi Graziela,

      I'm on Step 5 of the Manual Instructions and am running into an error.  I put the values in from the PDF but I keep getting the error of "Target Key must be different from source key."  I've confirmed the entries I am entering do not exist in the table already.  Any suggestions on how to get past this error?

      Hello Kyle,

      This error is usually raised when you are copying an existing an entry, and then trying to save it without changing it.
      Here's the explanation the system brings to this error: "You have attempted to save a copied entry without changing the key".

      In order to avoid it, I suggest you in creating each entry on view V_T51P1 using the "New Entries" button, ensuring that you are using the same data the note instructs, and that you haven't saved this entry on the table so far.

      Thank you,
      Carlos

      Hello, Graziela.

      I am implementing note 3273042.  When trying to Copy the existing wage types to the new wage types, Step 4, I am getting a Yellow warning message, "Copying to the reserved SAP name range /3B7 is not allowed".  I cannot proceed any further.

      Nancy Nichols that warning message is OK.  Typically, these are provided via support pack; this being a manual implementation, you will get this warning message in all the steps (because you are creating standard wage types or standard mapping). You can click OK and continue with the manual steps.

      Hi Nicola,

      In pay period 1 2023 i can see PW: $6619.57 and calculated tax is $29.79 which is correct.

       

      in pay period 02 2023, i see PW: $6619.57 and YW: $6619.57 are sent to BSI by SAP but you say no taxes are getting calculated.

       

      Can you please show me the screenshot of tax results/cumulated tax results which comes at last under UTAX functionality

      Author's profile photo Chandra Veeramony
      Chandra Veeramony

      Nancy Nichols looking at the screenshot, I'm intrigued.  Are you saying the wage types /4B7 and /4B8 are not showing up on the pay statement or its not even getting calculated? asking because, in the screenshot you posted, I see the "YT" getting passed with a dollar (line ADD TE for 117 and 118) which indicates the tax is being calculated (YT Year-to-date tax) - $29.79 is the tax appears to have been deducted in the previous pay period which is 0.45% of the $6619.57 of YW (ytd wages). If the taxes were not calculated the YT section would pass as zero.

      If it is not showing up on the remuneration statement, the remuneration statement would have to be configured. Could you post a screenshot of the whole processing section or just tax result segment. Alternatively, check the RT table to see if the wage type shows up.

      Hello, Chandra and Hemanth.

      Thank you, both, for your assistance with this.  The wage types are showing up on the RT table so I believe the step I missed was to update the HR Pay form.  I will update that and hopefully that resolves the issue.

      Thanks again!

      For Colorado and Oregon state we have 3 FMLA plan correct. first one is state level (Tax type 117/118), second one is tax equivalent (Tax type 119/120) and the third one is Tax Local government plan (Tax type 121/122). Our company is private sector so if i configure tax type 117/118 for my Colorado and Oregon tax modal then i should be good, correct? or do i need to configure Tax equivalent/Tax local government as well? Need your input.

      I agree, 117/118 would be the most common. My understanding is, if the company decide to self-administer the PFML plan, they will use 119/120. If the employer is local Government, they will use 121/122. Bottom line, only one pair should be used.

      1. You need to assign these tax types to your tax combo for Colorado and Oregon. (T5UTY)
      2. You need to add these new tax types in the Tax Authority Tax type mapping table (V_T5UTD)
      3. You need to add these new tax types in the Tax company tax type mapping table (V_T5UTI)

      Chandra Veeramony

      All tax deduction wage types (/4xx) must be set up in T5US0 for tax priority. That's what the error message and the note 2671295 is indicating. SAP generally does not include this step in their manual instructions of wage type creation and it doesnt copy over when you copy to create new.  This is something you would have to do in all manual creation of tax wage types.

      1. BAdI: Enhancement to BSI Reg Bulletin comparator (HRPAYUS_B_REG_BUL_LEVEL).

        By implementing this BAdI, you are able to adjust the messages that are displayed in the US Payroll Driver according to your needs. For example, you can implement this BAdI to hide all the messages, if you do not want to display them.

      Hello All,

       

      Does anyone know when the 2023 Federal Withholding rates will be available?  I've applied through Tub 096 and reviewed Tub 097 and they were not included.

       

      Also, will the Phase III note be available this week?

       

      thanks,

      Juli

      Hello Juli,

      I have seen some changes in TUB 098, BSI will also release TUB 099 before the end of the Year.

      Phase III is planned to be released this week, once it is available I will post here.

      Kind regards,

      Jeff,

      I only see changes for Non-Resident Alien Additional Withholding and Foreign Earned Income Exclusion Limit. Do we know if these are the only changes for Federal Withholding, or is there perhaps still more to come?

      Cheers,
      Matt

      Chandra,

      A week ago Graziela said it should be out before the end of the year, i.e. by the end of this week. I am curious to know if there are further Federal Withholding updates, as the ones in TUB 98 don't seem to me to cover the whole thing.

      Cheers,
      Matt

      Hi Chandra/Matt,

      Yesterday I received the BSI email with the API notification for Regulatory Bulletin 99.
      I saw changes in FED Tax type 001. Minnesota, Michigan, Utah and Hawai.

      Hope this helps.

      Bulletin 99 was just released moments ago. Unfortunately, I don't see anything in it for FED. Could there really be no changes to the Federal Withholding wage brackets? I guess I need to go to the source at IRS and find out.

      Hi Matt,

       

      The federal wage brackets were updated with bulletin 98. If you look closely at the description for the bulletin you will see this noted. We have applied them and they seem to be working as expected.

       

      Happy Holidays!

      Oh, my bad. It's a single line in the description with no detail. I read it as saying that the only changes were for Non-Resident Alien withholding and Foreign Earned Income Exclusion limits.

      I am having an issue with our REG Rate Calculation once we applied the required YE support packs.   One of our developers has reviewed functions RGRTE and determined that the change and the move from USDN to USD has changed the rounding which is we had prior to 4 decimals in USDN to 2 decimals in USD.   I am wondering if anyone else is seeing this issue as well and what you may have done to fix.   This change has impacted OT costs.   I've submitted an incident but no resolution yet.

      Hello Community,

      Have updated our system to Level B2 for SAP_HR, the requirement was to be at B1 for Year End.

      The issue we are facing is when we run - PC00_M99_URME - Evaluate remittance (New) . It creates the Evaluation run numbers, but when I look at the employees they are not evaluated, even though the URME ran and created the evaluation run number, that run number is not updated in the 3PR Tables .

      I wanted to open a incident with SAP , but posting it here to check if anyone else is facing similar issue's and if there is a solution for this .

      Thanks

      Hello Ejaz,

      Could you check the KBA?
      3280936 RPURMP00 (Create Third-Party Remittance Posting Run) is not populating order number

      I also found the notes:
      3241253 3PR: Order Number and WBS Element data are not filled on Third Party Evaluation
      3232982 3PR: Incorrect due date validation when reading payment rules for garnishments
      3209183 3PR: Incorrect due date validation
      3223298 3PR: EXPENSE_BUKRS field not filled in on posting process

      Could you check if you have all of them? The issues I have seem from other customers were solved applying these.

      Kind regards,

      Hi Graziela,

      We have all these notes in our system.

      Our issue is when we run the URME , I do see the evaluation run number. But these numbers are not getting updated in the 3PR tables , so the employee is not evaluated and then we have to run it multiple times to get the 3PR tables updated.

      Thanks

      Hello Cherylnita,

      I have been talking with the developer on that and their instruction is for customers to update table T5UX9 with the new rates. You can find details on that on note 903349 (TR: Instructions on using table T5UX9).

      As per the developer update, the rates on the note are just informative, and they are only updated on the note as well in case there's a change on the layout itself, which is not the case so far as the new form is not yet out.

      Best Regards,
      Carlos

      We are applying BSI Tubs 97-99 and on the Synchronization step we are getting the message "It was not possible to insert entry WA 3320211231 in table T5UTX"

      But when I look in V_T5UTX I see an entry already exists for WA 033 from 01/01/2011 - 12/31/9999 of a ceiling of 9,999,999.99 and a tax Rate .01

      It seems that the record is not being delimited properly.  However, reviewing the Tub documents I am not seeing an update in these Tubs for WA.

      Please see screen shots.

      Hi Kanuku,

      There have been "Year End" blogs and threads for Canada in the past, but it doesn't appear to be a regular thing like it is for the US. There is an "HCM Payroll Canada" tag, but there are only a handful of blog posts ever written for it. The questions part seems to be more active, so that would be a good place to ask, I think.

      Hello team, have a question on Ohio W4. Per the Ohio W4 Withholding exemption certificate IT-4 form  employees can claim tax "exempt" status. However, Infotype 210 Ohio subtype doesnt allow tax exemption. Is this something each customer has to set up as maintainable or is this something we can expect SAP to deliver as standard behavior?

      Washington published the file format for the Paid Family and Medical Leave & WA Cares Fund.  One of the fields is the WA Cares Exemption.  Are you planning on setting up a field that will read this?  I was guessing it would be on IT0235.  If you go to this link Paid Family & Medical Leave (wa.gov).

      Choose .CSV instructions to see all of the fields.  I couldn't find a way to map this last one.

      Support stack note 3278414 has changed the layout of OFF-CYCLE work bench by adding sequential number and payment number (which is run date and Pnumber from the BT table).

      Question: is there a way that we can change the layout of the off cycle work bench (Example: removing sequential number or removing reason filed) is it possible? Need your input,

      Hi Team,

      Has anyone implemented note :3285503 - OCWB: Change in order of columns in the payroll history table.

      This allows us to change the order of column in payroll history (moved the amount and currency columns more to the left in the Payment History table).

      They have also added a toolbar to the history grid so that users can edit the columns displayed and save variants of their layout configurations. Example like removing the sequence number or payment number from payroll history tab.

      Screenshot is attached below for references.

      Hello Hemanth,

      With regards to the ZH30 Off-Cycle Workbench changes you mentioned you're experiencing after the year-end 2022 support packs, we are also seeing this issue and are in the process of implementing SAP note 3285503 as well since it appears to be resolving the issue in our test environment.

      To date we have been unsure of which note or update changed the ZH30 display, so your mention of note 3278414 may help, although that note at first glance appears to be an update to the documentation only, and I haven't had an opportunity to delve into the specific changes that note brought in.

      We likely missed it and any other related notes because they appear to be on the FI, not HR side.

      Hi Graziela and/or others perhaps in the know on this topic for likely Year-end 2023,

      The Secure Act 2.0 changed the rules for 50+ catch-up contributions effective 01/01/2024. The income amount will be indexed each year.

      We understand that with this new regulation, that deferred compensation 50+ catch-up contributions for those who made more than $145,000 in 2023 must be post-tax (Roth). Those that made less than $145,000 in 2023 can still choose their 50+ catch-up contributions to be pre or post tax.

      Please don't quote me on our early understanding of this new regulation as we are still doing our own research, but if this in fact is expected to be the case, we are in hopes that SAP will have a planned, SAP-standard release update perhaps by late this year that US Country customers will be able to implement.

      Does anyone have any additional information you may be able to share with us here on this terrific and super-helpful year-end focused blog of Graziela's? Our team here at Sac County CA check in on it every year-end. If not, we'll consider reaching out to both the SCN Community in general, and will perhaps open an incident with SAP to inquire further.
