W2 Adjustment Definition

	This gives you the ability to print on W2's any of the YTD
	amounts for employee adjustments (deductions, benefits, allowances),
	that may apply.

	If you DO NOT have any deductions or benefits such as pension plans,
	cafeteria plans or special situations that should be reported
	according to the IRS Instructions for W2 reporting, then you 
	should have All FIELDS BLANK in this window. 	

			    Preparation

	You should be familiar with your requirements as defined in the
	IRS Instructions for Forms W-2 and W-3 for the year being reported.

	It may also be helpful to consult with your accountant on your
	specific requirements for reporting, if you have ANY non-taxable
	deductions that apply to some employees.

			    Setup

	To make a Y-T-D AMOUNT (must be greater than zero) of an 
	adjustment for each applicable employee print on a W-2, put a
	"Y" in the box that applies for that adjustment. 

	To print an "X" in a W-2 check box, put a "Y" in that column. 
	The check box won't print if the YTD amount is zero.

	To make a code and an amount print, put the applicable code
	under Box 12. Note that some of these codes require the 
	Retirement Box to be checked. If so, put a Y under that column.

	For most non-taxable deductions that you may wish to print on
	the W-2, you may need to put a - (minus) under the Box 1 column.
	This will cause this YTD amount to be subtracted from the Box 1
	amount before printing. In other words, if needed, in order
	to get the correct wages to print, you may specify whether to
	add or subtract (enter - or +) from the W-2 Wages, or not
	affect them at all.

	You should examine the W-2's and the audit reports closely
	to be sure all amounts correct.

			Statutory Employees

	If you need to have the Statutory Box checked, put the word 
	'stat' or 'statutory' (upper or lower case) anywhere in the
	employee's INFO field. 

			Printing 'Other' Amounts

	Box 14 (2001 W-2's) is for printing amounts that are not required
	on a W-2, but that you would like to show the employee. This
	could be for a benefit like matching 401k or health insurance
	you pay. If a Y is in Other, the adjustment short name and the
	amount (if not zero) will print in the Other box. Up to 4
	different adjustments may be defined. If some amount not posted
	by the payroll needs to be displayed, you can take an unused
	adjustment and set it up as needed. 

	For instance, maybe you wish to show how many miles a company
	vehicle was driven that year by particular employees. Take an
	unused adjustment and make the short name VMiles (or whatever
	you wish) in PR	configuration, then manually enter the mileage 
	into that employee's Screen #3 YTD amount for that adjustment.
	Then on this window we are currently over, put a Y in the Other
	column for this new adjustment just set up. Then all employees 
	that you entered some mileage will have the description VMiles
	and the mileage printed on the W-2 in the Other box.
