State Subtask

Use this subtask to make various choices regarding how a pay type should be treated for each state's income tax when payroll is computed.

If a state for which an employee is set up on the Manage Employee Taxes screen is not found here, Costpoint performs the calculation in accordance with the federal tax setup for this pay type.

Note: Assume a pay type is exempt from federal withholding. If you have a state that follows this same rule, you need not set the pay type up here because, if the pay type is not found, Costpoint calculates by the federal rules.
