CALCULATING FUTA & SUTA AFTER CHANGING EMPLOYEE PAY FROM HOURLY TO SALARY

Gina Sanderson
Solved
Posted By

I changed an employee's pay method from hourly to salary in November 2024 (4th quarter).  I sat up a new employee with same information with 2 behind name.  By doing this, my FUTA & SUTA reports were incorrect as it did not accumulate the totals, treating them as 2 different employees.  I've read to uncheck "USE DEFAULTS" box for FUTA, but I have not found anything on SUTA.  Has anyone else experienced this?  If so, how did you correct?

    I have two employees that have moved to salary and I had to make new employee accounts. I couldn't figure out how to stop suta and futa from calculating taxes.  Now that I have read this response it have it fixed but how do I fix payroll that has already been processed and calculated incorrectly???

    Since it's an Employer Liability that was calculated and shouldn't have, if you have already filed that quarter's Reports/Payments, you can adjust future Quarterly Returns & Payments, and if overpaid, request a refund. You can edit the previous checks in your system and remove calculations for FUTA and/or SUTA as needed, which will update your Financials and Reports, or you can enter negative values on future checks in those areas to back out what was previously calculated.
