Ohio Residential Local Taxable Wages

Hello All,

We are a large employer in Ohio (15K+ employees) and we provide courtesy tax withholding for residential localities. BSI has stopped passing taxable wages for these localities and that's created a big issue here at year end. We now have a large portion of the year (from June through the end of the year) where we have tax withheld without a corresponding taxable wage to report on the W2. We were wondering if there are any other Ohio employers facing this issue and how they are mitigating.

Thanks,

Jim

We are testing the V11 CTP and had the same issue with voluntary withholding for Kansas City Missouri. We were told by Infor via BSI to change in BSI/Configuration our "use local placeholders" option from Yes to No. My understanding is this changes voluntary local throughout the organization so make sure you test thoroughly. We have tested to make sure that the Kansas City taxes and wages are populating correctly but need to review for other down stream effects

Thank you Greg. So am I understanding you are getting taxable wages to work for voluntary / courtesy withholding for KC with the BSI placeholder setting set to "No"? We will begin testing V11 in Feb. Our current BSI settings for reciprocity is attached. Does the V11 general configuration still look like this? How do you have them set? Much appreciated.

Yes we are getting both taxable wages and taxes. Our "Use Basic Local Reciprocity" option is also No. Currently we just finished testing the CTP. We have not yet started testing the actual BSI V11 software yet. Waiting on space and additional resources.

Thanks. My misunderstanding. Your issue was caused by the Infor YE patch. Ours was the result of a BSI reg bulletin specific to Ohio. We were told (by BSI) the option for "Use Basic Local Reciprocity" is going away with BSI V11. We are still on Infor V10 so I would be curious to know how your testing in BSI V11 goes. Did I understand you correctly that you are on Infor V11?
