To adjust the Cost Account for a Tax Adjustment (or extra tax), you will need to use a Manual Calculation.
If the amended Cost Account needs to appear in the same Period End Date as the original transaction, process the Manual Calculation in an Adjustment Pay Run and use the same Period End Date. Before starting the Adjustment Pay Run, ensure that there are no current transactions, as these will be included in the adjustment pay run.
To amend the Cost Account for Tax Adjustment:
Go to Payroll, Transactions, Processing, Manual Calculation.
Enter the Employee.
Select Subtract.
From Pay Summary, select Deds Before Tax.
Click Add.
Select the Tax Adjustment code you want to amend.
Enter the Value you need to move to the new Cost Account. This should be entered as a positive value.
Select the Cost Account to move the Tax Adjustment from.
Click Process.
Enter the Employee again if another employee has been loaded.
Select Add.
Untick Generate Payment
Select Deds Before Tax again.
Click Add.
Select the Tax Adjustment code you want to amend.
Enter the Value you need to move to the new Cost Account.
Select the Cost Account to move the Tax Adjustment to.
Click Process.
Run your normal reports to check the values.
Once the Manual Calculations have been entered, complete the Adjustment Pay Run, including End of Pay, to see the change on the Costing Report.
