Additional Employee Withholding Amount not Calculating on Employees Check

Issue/Symptom/Question

After entering an Additional Withholding Amount in the Employee Payroll Information Window on the Withholding tab, and creating a check for the employee, PENTA is not recognizing the additional withholding amount on the payroll check.

Environment

Additional Withholding

Resolution/Fix/Answer

When there are multiple payroll checks in a pay period for a specific employee, PENTA will only take the additional withholding amount on the first check. If the goal is to have additional withholding calculated on EVERY check in a pay period, consider using the additional withholding percent field instead.
