Producing a supplemental paycheck

unavailable in ajeraCore unless you have the Payroll add-on

When you produce a supplemental paycheck, Ajera automatically applies federal withholding based on the federal supplemental tax tables. You may want to produce supplemental paychecks for pay such as bonus pay.

You can produce supplemental paychecks in one of the following ways:

Setting up and producing supplemental paychecks

  1. If you need to create a supplemental paycheck that includes special taxes, deductions, and fringes, add them for the employee as needed, selecting the Supp check box for each item you add. If you want to include these items on supplemental paychecks only, you must also select the On demand check box for each item.
  2. On the Pay Information tab, add a pay, entering the amount of the gross pay and selecting the Supp check box. If you want to use this pay on supplemental paychecks only, you must also select the On demand check box.
  3. When creating the payroll, be sure to select Supplemental in the Pay Period field. You do not need to select the Include on demand check boxes to include supplemental items you set up for an employee; select these check boxes only if you want to include other on-demand items on the paycheck.

Producing a one-time only supplemental paycheck

If, when setting up each employee, you do not set up a pay for supplemental paychecks or any special taxes, deductions, or fringes for supplemental pay, you can create a zero-amount paycheck and then add the pay, taxes, deductions, and fringes to that paycheck.

  1. When creating the payroll, be sure to select Supplemental in the Pay Period field.
  2. Using the appropriate tab of the Edit Paycheck window, add pays, deductions, and fringes as needed to this paycheck.  

Any deductions and fringes you add appear with Flat Amount as the calculation method.
