Processing
Employee Online
When employees submit the new W-4 form in Employee Online:
- The Approval field on HRPYMD/HREPPR/HRPYPR records is set to WAIT with an Action code of EOU.
- HR reviews and approves the records by setting the Approval field to SEND. Note that both the Mandatory Tax records as well as the Additional Tax records must be approved individually (i.e., approving one does not approve the other).
- HR sends the approved records over to Payroll using the Global Processing Mandatory Assignments tool. Note that this tool does not apply to the Additional Tax records.
Manual Data Entry
