Ver 11, Payroll Setup

[jimaharri]

I just installed ver. 11 and for some unknown reason I cannot get past the section in which you are to set up the tax tables. I continue to get the message "specify tax type for each table to continue". I have entered Federal-married, single, medicare, SS, state tax and the boxes on the right of the table are all checked? What am I missing to do? Thank you

I believe its referring to the tax type as shown in the dialog below:

As you can see, the table is the Federal Married Rate tax table, and the type is Federal Withholding.

Thanks, but unfortunately I have it setup that way. Problem apparently goes beyond this.

Do you get this error on every table you try to save ??

I am working on a page called TAX TABLES. On this page there are 3 columns - Description, Tax Table and Completed. Below you can click on EDIT or DELETE. (when I highlight one of the decription items which were transferred from 10.4 and then click on EDIT I get the page you showed in previous reply (except mine is titled EDIT TAX TABLE). I have entered all the requested tax table info (ie Federal: withholding) for each of my description items and all the boxes on the right in the completed column are checked. Now I click on NEXT and I get the message in my original post.

And the tables all have the tax deduction information correctly copied from version 10 ?? The reason I ask is, this is the first time I've seen this conversion problem reported in the forums .

The descriptions are slightly different, ie: in version 10.4 we used the description FEDERAL W/H for both married and single
In version 11.1 they are listed as FEDERAL TAX: MARRIED and FEDERAL TAX: SINGLE on the page in question. These descriptions cannot be changed.

I understand, but has the actual data converted properly .. you know the stuff that lists the withholding amount and the income brackets ??

[jimaharri]

Yes, the withholding table data - both single and married are there and match Circular 15.

.......and also the SS and Med percentages are correct, along with the Penna state w/h rate of 3.07%

Got the answer. I had a blank line in the tax table setup page. Just deleted it and everything was ok.
