Implement the Follow Project Locale Method for Withholdings

You implement the Follow Project Locale method in the Employee Info Center.

Prerequisite: Before you specify employee withholdings, you must establish firm-wide withholding codes in Payroll Withholding Setup.

To use the project payroll tax locale to determine withholdings, complete the following steps:

  1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Info Center > Employees.
  2. Open the employee record and click the Payroll tab.
  3. From the Locale Method drop-down list, select Follow Project Locale.
  4. From the Default Project Tax Locale drop-down list, select a default locale for the employee.

    When an employee charges time to a project that does not have a payroll tax locale defined in the Project Info Center, or to a project whose tax locale is not set up as a withholding for the employee, this default locale is populated in the timesheet's Payroll Tax Locale field.

    The employee can override this default before posting the timesheet by selecting another locale from the timesheet's Payroll Tax Locale field. The locale must be established in Payroll Withholding Setup to be available as an option from this field.

  5. Click Save.
