When a supplemental pay is paid with a regular pay, the taxable benefit deductions can be prorated between both Federal and Supplemental wages. This is controlled by the set up of elements attached to specific pay components, as indicated below.
Prorating the taxable benefit deductions will cause a slight difference in the tax calculated. Organizations will need to consider their business processes to determine if they would prefer the taxable benefits to be prorated or not. Some organizations may want to prorate Section 125 deductions and not 401k deductions.
UPCALC reviews the set up of the following Federal PC Usages to determine if it should prorate the taxable benefit deductions:
7901 | Pre-FWT 125 Exemption - Reg Tax (PPE) |
7902 | Pre-FWT 401K Exemption - Reg Tax (PPE) |
7903 | Pre-FWT 403B Exemption - Reg Tax (PPE) |

In conclusion for Maryland:
If there is no override by an employee, there is no need to set up these Misc Tax Parm.
For the IPRLU Federal and State Tab Suppl Tax Method explanation, please refer to the PR_US_IPRLU_methods_v1.0.doc or later.
When an employee is paid with Supplemental wages, the IPRLU Federal and State Tab Suppl Tax Method determines if the Supplemental Wages are to be taxed or not, and which Suppl Tax Method is to be used.
When the State Supplemental tax is to be calculated by Symmetry, the IPUTP State specific tax method from SUP_PAID_WITH_REG or SUP_PAID_WITHOUT_REG will be passed to Symmetry for calculation, depending on if the Supplemental wages are paid with or without Regular wages (either FLAT or CURRAGG is used).
Like with the Federal Supplemental Pay, taxable benefits can be prorated between regular state wages and supplemental wages when both are paid together. This is controlled by the set up of the elements attached to specific pay components, as indicated below.
Prorating the taxable benefit deductions will cause a slight difference in the tax calculated. Organizations need to consider their business processes to determine if they would prefer the taxable benefits to be prorated or not. Some organizations may want to prorate Section 125 deductions and not 401k deductions.
UPCALC reviews the set up of the following State PC Usages to determine if it should prorate the taxable benefit deductions.
NOTE: If the State Level Benefit PC Usages are not set up on IPPC, then the Federal Level Benefit PC Usages that are described in the Federal section will be used.
