Create Quarterly SUTA Tax File

Use this screen to create files for submission of quarterly state unemployment tax (SUTA) reports.

The state in which an employee worked during the quarter is determined by using the SUTA State field in the Employee Earnings History table.

Create the SUTA reporting files at the end of each calendar quarter for submission to the state. Print the State Quarterly Unemployment Report in order to provide backup information.

There are two ways to work with export files in Costpoint:

  • You can save the file to an Alternate File Location.
  • You can save the file to the Costpoint database.

If you decide to use the first option, click in the File Location field to select the alternate file location to which you want to save the file. If you choose the second option, leave the File Location field blank when you export the file.

For more information on the types of files generated by the Create Quarterly SUTA Tax File for each state, please refer to the Costpoint SUTA Electronic Filing State File Types topic.
