PRINT QUARTERLY STATE UNEMPLOYMENT REPORT 

Print this report for each state in which you have employees working. This report can often be submitted "as is" to back up the quarterly unemployment report. The state in which an employee is working is determined by the SUTA State field in the Employee Earnings table. Therefore, if an employee worked in more than one state during the quarter, your quarterly unemployment reports reflect the different states in which the employee worked.

At this time, all wages are included when calculating the wages eligible for the current state's wage base. For example, an employee who earned $3,000 in Virginia and $4,000 in Maryland reaches the state wage base of $7,000. $3,000 times the VA SUTA rate is paid to Virginia and $4,000 times the MD SUTA Rate is paid to Maryland. Any additional earnings (in a state where $7,000 is the wage base) is considered over the limit and not taxable to the employer.

This report prints QTR Gross, Tax Exempt Deductions and Wages, Eligible SUTA Wages, Excess SUTA Wages, Taxable SUTA Wages, and Accrued SUTA for each employee. The report also prints State Totals, Total Number of Employee per State, and a State Unemployment Tax Calculation for each state. The State Unemployment Tax Calculation is the result of multiplying the SUTA Rate by the Total Taxable SUTA Wages. Employees are not included on the report if they have no wages in the selected period, even if their working state is printed.

Print this report at the end of each calendar quarter to provide information relating to amounts required for the state quarterly report. You can also print it for any check date range within the same payroll year.

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.
