Negative Wages

How do other payroll Lawson users handle negative time records/earnings?

My payroll teams enters negative time records on PR36 when an employee has to payback things such as tuition, sign-on bonus, or pay back hours overpaid. I'm not over payroll but support them as the IT Analyst. We have tried to help them understand it can cause tax issues and what should be done is adjustments and deductions to payback dollars.

For an overpayment of tuition, we would use PR39.1/PR39.2 to get the amount back as we have those as a reimbursement so no need to adjust the gross or year to date pay.

If the overpayment was a signing bonus or overpaid regular wages, we would use PR36.1 or PR30.1 to take back the pay depending on the amount.

BrittanyG did you ever get a fix for your negative wage issue. I continue to have issues and more so now. This was not something we saw when we first went to TF11 but now it seems to becoming a bigger issue.

Same here. We are starting to see odd issues regarding local withholding taxes that we never had before. They are also not popping up as errors on the BSI error report or any other report while closing payroll.
