If these Identifiers do not exist, [UPCALC] will generate the default entries for the identifiers
||Miscellaneous Identifiers||Description
|LOC_COURTESY_PA_EIT|Optional//Pennsylvania EIT Local Courtesy Option
\\
----
!PA – ER SUTA, EE SUI
ER SUTA may be bypassed on [IPUTR] with ‘Do not Calculate’ or [IPRLU] ‘SUI ER Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’.
There are two options to set up the ER SUTA rate by state:
#IPUTR
#*Enter the SUTA ER rate that is given by the government on the Override Tax Rate field.
#*This rate is applicable for the entire company within the State of Pennsylvania.
#*The SUI Rate and Wage Base are supplied and will be used as default
#*This SUI Rate or Wage Base may be overridden, if necessary
#IDGV
#*If there is a specific rate given by the government for a different State Registration #, then enter the rate on [IDGV] by ‘Reg Type’; this overrides the [IPUTR] rate.\\ \\
For SUI, the [IPUTR] SUI built-in rate and SUI wage base may be overridden by one of the options above.
It is recommended that if the SUI rate is overridden, the SUI overridden wage base should also be entered. This is to ensure that with the overridden SUI rate, the SUI is able to stop at the proper maximum wage base with the new rate.
