IMUF – Define User Fields for IDGV#

On IMUF, users must define the User Defined Fields for P2K_CM_GOVT_REGISTRATIONS.

The following User Defined Fields (UDF) are defined on the IDGV Variables tab. The RPYEU process will generate these UDF's if they do not already exist.

For Annual and Quarterly Reporting

UDFUsage
W2 STATE MEDIA FILINGUsed by all States
W2 TAX TYPE CODEUsed by all States
W2 TAXING ENTITYUsed by all States
W2 WAGE PLAN CODEUsed by the State of California
W2 BRANCH CODEUsed by the State of California
W2 ER NAMEUsed by Federal reporting, this overrides the IDEN Entity Name
W2 LOCN CODEUsed by Federal reporting, this overrides the IDEN Location Code

For Quarterly reporting, these UDF's are used when ‘HL$US-QTR-2018’ Form Code is being used:

IMUF – Define User Fields for IDDP#

On IMUF, users must define the UDF for P2K_CM_DEPARTMENT_DETAILS.

The following UDF are defined on IDDP. The RPYEU process will generate these UDF's if they do not exist.

If the 'SUI ER NUMBER' is not set up for a department, then the SUI ER NUMBER from IDGV is used.

IMUF – Define User Fields for IEID#

On IMUF, users must define the UDF's for P2K_HR_IDENTITIES.

The following UDF are defined on IEID for Minnesota reporting. Users can set up the IMUF form manually, or the RPYEU process will generate these UDF's if they do not exist.

UDFUsage
W2 DESTINATION
MMREF PROBATIONARYUsed by the state of Minnesota
MMREF OFFICER CODEUsed by the state of Minnesota

IMUF – Define User Fields for IDCO#

On IMUF, users must define the UDF for P2K_CM_COUNTRIES. The RPYEU will generate these UDF's if they do not already exist.

IDCO – Define ISO Country Code for Foreign Countries#

If the employer or employees have addresses that are not in the USA, the EFW2 file needs to report the 2 character International Organization for Standardization (ISO) country code.

The 'Country Code' on IDCO is user-defined and is usually the three character United Nations code, however the two character ISO code can also be used.

Example:

Country3 character United Nation Code2 character ISO Country Code
MexicoMEXMX
MozambiqueMOZMZ

Users need to enter the ISO country code in the 'ISO Alpha' field on the IDCO form.
If the ISO country code is not entered, then the IDCO country code is used as the ISO country code.

Please read the Employer/Employee Primary Addresses sections below for more information.

IDDP – Department Screen#

Example: For the Planning & Zoning Department, the MN number is ‘7977999-004’ on the IDDP form. Users should enter the ‘SUI ER Number’ as 7977999-004

IEID – Employee Identity Screen User Field#

Users can enter the the ‘W2 Destination’ UDF and/or ‘MMREF Officer Code’ UDF for the employee.
Users can enter the 'W2 Destination’ for distributing the W2 forms for this employee.

IDGR – Define Group for Govt Registration#

Important: The Federal/State/Local Registration numbers MUST NOT be changed for a Group for different effective date records. The UPCLOZ program will not create new YTD records if the Group changes the effective date. Consequently, if the Group must change Registration numbers, users should either:
  • Create a new Group, OR
  • Change all of the effective records to the same Registration numbers.

For each group at the Federal level, the Federal Registration number is retrieved according to the ‘Fed Regist Set’ and ‘Fed Regist Type’ on IDGV and is displayed on IDGR.

For each group at the State/Prov level, users can point to a ‘State/Prov Set’ and ‘State/Prov Type’. Since each group can be paid in many different States or Provinces, the State/Prov Registration number cannot be displayed on IDGR.

For each employee that belongs to this group, the State/Prov Registration Number is retrieved from IDGV by the defined ‘State/Prov Set’ and ‘State/Prov Type’ and the Pay Header State/Prov of the employee.

At the Local level, the Local Registration Number is retrieved from IDGV by the defined ‘Local Regist Set’ and ‘Local Regist Type’ and the 'GEO Local' of the employee.

Each group must define one of the following ‘W2 Employment Types’ for W2 reporting purposes:

The 'W2 EMPLOYMENT TYPE' for a group MUST NOT BE CHANGED even if there are multiple effective date records for a group.

Note: For ‘Q - MQGE' employment, users are not required to group all employees under one group. The MQGE employees can belong to a group with ‘R’ type employment, and IPRLU can specify the proper MEDICARE and FICA method to classify them as MQGE employees. If this field is blank, Regular is used. (see below for detail)

IDSP – Define States#

IDCN – Define Counties#

IDTX – Define Tax Jurisdictions#

A City's Tax Jurisdiction must be defined on IDGV in order for the City tax to be reported.

IDSD – Define School Districts#

The School Registration must be defined on IDGV in order for the School District tax to be reported.

IDGV – One or Multiple Government Registrations#

For each Entity on IDGV, users must define the Government Registration Set that is used to collect Federal, State and Local Registrations. Under the Registration Set, users must define the 'Federal Registration’ for the Country USA with a valid ‘Employer Identification Number’. Then users can set up the State and Local Registrations for each State/Local under the same Registration Set.

Organizations with one Federal Registration

Example, on IDGV, users should set up Federal Registration with Registration Type defined as ‘US Fed Regist 1’. Note: If Registration Type ‘US Fed Regist 1’ is used, then:
  • The FICA registration should be defined using the Registration Type ‘US FICA Regist 1’
  • The MEDICARE registration should be defined using the Registration Type ‘US MEDI Regist 1’ etc. The last digit of the Registration Type must match each type of Registration.

Organizations with Multiple Federal Registrations If your organization has multiple Federal Registrations, users have two options:

  1. One Registration Set can be set up, then set up the Registration Types of ‘Fed Regist 1’, ‘Fed Regist 2’ up to ‘Fed Regist 9’. This allows up to nine Federal Registrations.
  2. Multiple Registration Sets can be set up, then set up Registration Type ‘Fed Regist 1’, ‘Fed Regist 2’ up to ‘Fed Regist 9’ for each Registration Set. This allows for an unlimited number of Federal Registrations.

Example:

Govt Registration SetUsage
MAIN REGISTUse as default to group all registrations initially
REGIST 2Users can define another set for all level of registrations
FED REGISTUsers can define Federal level registrations for this set
STATE REGISTUsers can define State level registrations for this set
LOCAL REGISTUsers can define Local level registrations for this set
FULLTIME REGISTUsers can define Registrations for Full time employees
PARTTIME REGISTUsers can define Registrations for Part time employees
SEASONAL REGUsers can define Registrations for Seasonal employees
STATE OHIOUsers can define Registrations for Ohio for this set only
Important Note for IDGV set up: The IDGV 'Govt Registration Set' and 'Registration Types' are used on the IDGR Registration tab for each of the Federal, State and Local level set up.
On IDGV, users must match the last digit of the Registration Type for the same Federal, State and Local level of registrations.

Example #1
If the Registration Type is defined as ‘US Fed Regist 1’ then:

If the Registration Type is defined as 'US State Regist 1’, then:


Example #2
If the Registration Type is defined as ‘US Fed Regist 2’, then:

If Registration Type is defined as ‘US State Regist 2’, then:

IDGV – Override Employer Name and Address by EIN#

On the IDGV Variables tab, there is the option to define an override for the Employer’s Name and Address.

This allows organizations who have multiple government registrations for one Entity to report a different Employer Name or Address for each Federal Registration Number (EIN).
W2 ER NAMEEnter the Employer Name to be reported. This overrides the IDEN Entity Name
W2 LOCN CODEEnter the Location code to be reported. This overrides the IDEN Location code
Note: Users must enter the exact Location code in this field, otherwise it will not be used.

IDGV – Levels of Government Registrations#

The following levels of Government Registration must be set up for the Federal, State, County, City and School tax reporting.

Federal Level
One or multiple Federal Registrations must be defined for each Entity, with each Govt Regist Set for the Registration Type ‘US Fed Regist 1’, etc.

State Level
A State must be defined on IDGV for an Entity with the ‘State Registration’ by Govt Regist Set and Registration Type in order for the State to be reported.

State Media Filing
On the IDGV Variables tab, the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable must be defined to indicate if this State is required to produce a W2 File for the State.
The ‘W2 State Media Filing’ values are:

ValueDescription
00Not required to file magnetic media to the State
01Include State Code RS Records in the Federal file. Users can send the federal file to the State. If the State file layout is conforming to the standard federal SSA Code RS format and the State accepts a copy of the federal file that includes the Code RW records, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to '01'. When the RPYEU process is run, the State Code RS record will automatically be generated in the federal file. Users only need to send a copy of the federal file to the State.
02State requires its own file, do not include other State information in the State file.
*If the State does not accept other States' information in their State File, users should set the 'W2 State Media Filing' variable to '02'.
*Users should run RPYEU one State at a time and set the 'Media Format' to ‘State File Format’.
*If the State has its own specific State file layout, RPYEU will generate the State file in the specific file layout, otherwise the generic Federal Code RS format layout is used.
*If the State requires its own State file layout, please check with High Line for a list of States that are supported by RPYEU.

Local Level
A County Tax Jurisdiction must be defined for each County on IDGV with the ‘Local Registration’ in order for the County tax to be reported.
A City Tax Jurisdiction must be defined for each County on IDGV with the ‘Local Registration’ in order for the City tax to be reported.
When users are defining the ‘Local Registration’, users should also set up the ‘Variables’ tab. See the Local Media Filing section below.

State Media for Local Filing
On IDGV, Variables tab, the 'W2 State Media Filing' variable can be defined (optional)to indicate if this Local requires to be filed with magnetic media on a W2 file.

The ‘W2 State Media Filing’ values are:

ValueDescription
00Not Required to file magnetic media.
01Include Local Federal Code RS records in the Federal File format
If the Local information is to be reported along with the Federal Code RS information, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to ‘01’ for this local.
When RPYEU is run, the State Information Code RS record will be generated along with the Local information.
02Include Local State Code RS record in the State File format.
If the Local information is to be reported along with the State Code RS information, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to‘02’ for this local.
When RPYEU is run, the State Code RS record will be generated along with the Local information.
03Local requires its own File, do not include other Local information in the File
If the Local requires its own format, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to ‘03’ for this local.
When RPYEU is run and a user selects to generate the ‘Local File format’, users must also select the specific City or County, then the Local file format will be generated.
**NOTE: this feature requires specific program logic for each Local. Please check with High Line to ensure the local is supported by RPYEU.

If 'W2 State Media Filing' is defined for a Local, then the IDGV Variables tab must also be set up for:
W2 TAX TYPE CODE - to contain one of the following values:

W2 TAXING ENTITY - to define the Taxing Entity Code for each local: Example:

School Level
The ‘School Registration’ must be defined on IDGV for each School District in order for the school tax to be reported.
When the ‘School Registration’ is defined, the IDGV Variables tab must be set up with:

State Media for School District Filing
The ‘W2 State Media Filing’ values are:

ValueDescription
00Not Required to file magnetic media
01Include School Code RS records in the Federal File format.
If the School information is to be reported along with the Federal Code RS information, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to‘01’ for this local.
When RPYEU is run, the State Code RS records will be generated along with the School information.
02Include School Code RS records in the State File format.
If the School information is to be reported along with the State Code RS information, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to ‘02’ for this local.
When RPYEU is run, the State Information Code RS record will be generated along with the School information.
03School requires its own File, do not include other Local Information in the file.
If the School requires its own format, users should set the ‘W2 State Media Filing’ variable to ‘03’ for this local.
*NOTE: This feature requires specific program logic for each school. Please check with High Line to ensure this local is supported by RPYEU.

When ‘W2 State Media Filing’ is defined for a School, the IDGV Variables Tab must also be set up with:

IDGV – Define State SUI Registrations for Quarterly Filing#

When running RPYEU with the Calendar Type defined as ‘Q’ for a quarter, each State must set up with ‘US SUI Regist’. The last digit of ‘US SUI Regist’ Registration type must match the last digit of ‘US State Regist’ Registration type.

Example:
If Registration Type is defined as ‘US State Regist 1’, then:

If Registration Type is defined as ‘US State Regist 2’, then:

According to each state’s quarterly filing format, some States may require to submit Taxes Due, Previous Underpayment etc. For each quarter, users must define the IDGV Variables tab for these quarterly amounts with the proper ‘US SUI Regist’ prior to running RPYEU.

IDFD – Define Form Code#

IDFD – Starter Scripts#

When users are installing the US Year End software, a seed data script is executed to load in the current year IDFD Form Code and Seed Data.

This script can be run multiple times and performs the following:

IDFD – Store Option#

The current year IDFD Form Code provides the ‘Store Option’ starting from Seq# 2000 in order for RPYEU to store the Employer Name / Addresses, the Employee Name / Addresses and the Amounts of the Seq# in the Government Remittance Tables. Important: Users must run RPYEU with the new IDFD Form Code or users can run a copy of this Form Code that has the ‘Store Option’ set up to store the Addresses and the Amounts in the Government Remittance Tables. Any prior year’s Form Codes do not supply this option and therefore will not turn on the store feature for RPYEU.

IDFDV – Copy Last Year’s Definition to Current Year#

After the current year script is loaded, users can copy the IDFDV Variable definition from the last year to current year using the COPY button on IDFDV as follows:
  1. On IDFDV, select last year’s Form Code
  2. Press the COPY FORM DEFINITION button
  3. The Copying dialog box is displayed. Enter the current year New Form Code
  4. Set the 'Copy Definition with Variables' toggle to ON. This will copy the variables set up from the previous year to the current year for the same Field Identifier name.

For California SDI reporting, there are two options to print SDI on W2 forms:

  1. For California, if IDFDV Identifier Seq 7260 W2-SDI-TAX-EE is not zero, then Box 19 will print the employee SDI contribution and Box 20 will print the description ‘CASDI’ (This option is only available to clients who are running the W2 report in Oracle, it is not available to clients running W2 in the Windard platform).
  2. For California, if IDFDV Identifier Seq 7260 W2-SDI-TAX-EE is not set up, Box 14 can be set up to print ‘CASDI’ and the SDI amount.
