IPUTP #

This screen is used to:
  • view US Tax Miscellaneous Parameters by the states that are applicable for IPRLU

IDGV#

  • This screen may optionally contain specific Override rates and Wage bases by Government Registration for each Registration from the Pay Header's group
  • IDGV overridden amounts take precedence over the IPUTR overridden amounts

KY – IPPC / PC Usages#

IPPC – Set up Pay Components by PC Usages

In order to calculate the following taxes, please set up IPPC for these PC Usages:

UsageDescription
7271KY- Mental Health and Senior Citizen Tax
7272KY- Senior Citizen Tax (this usage is not used)

Kentucky Senior Citizen Tax is calculated together with Mental Health Tax
7273KY- Transit Tax (this usage is not used)

Kentucky Transit Tax is calculated together with OLF City / County Tax

Kentucky Occupational License Fee (OLF) and Occupational License Fee for Schools (OLTS) are treated as COUNTY / CITY and SCHOOL District tax and thus will be stored as County / City / School District taxes. Pay Components must be defined for at County, City and School District Levels.


KY – OLF and OLTS#

Kentucky Cities and Counties may charge resident and nonresident employees an Occupational License Fee (OLF). It is possible for an employee to be subject to both a City OLF and one or more County OLF.

In addition to the OLF, some counties levy a Mental Health tax, a Senior Citizen tax, an Educational School tax, or a Transportation tax.

For Example: GEO: 21-015-492266 Florence is for County 21-015 Boone County, for City 492266 Florence

On IPUTR, there are three entries for County 21-015 Boone County, therefore these three taxes will be calculated.

21-015-0000-OLF-000Boone County - OLFShowing County Tax Rate
21-015-0000-MHT-000Boone County - MHTShowing County Mental Health Tax Rate
21-015-0000-OLTS-000Boone County - OLTSShowing County Tax School Rate
School District Tax are calculated automatically according to the GNIS Code, there is no need to set up IDSD School District code for Kentucky, and therefore IDTX Jurisdiction entries for Kentucky also do not require to set up by School.

On IPUTR, there is one entry for City 21-000-492266 Florence, therefore this tax will be calculated.
