PR82 adjustments

rchudek1

Confirm understanding of the PR82 intent. It is my understanding that PR82 is used to adjust records behind the scenes, for W2's and finance and that these adjustments do not impact the employee's pay check. Questions:
1. Am I correct in my understanding?
2. When pulling deductions for a regular payroll, do you include check type "J" so the adjustment is included? I would think no because the intent of the PR82 is not to impact the employees pay check or deduction amount.
3. Processing PR82's and the date used-
a. in the same year same quarter- do you use the current date or the date in which you are processing the PR82- if doing on an off cycle, that date?
b. in the same year different quarter? any day in the quarter where the original transaction took place?

Any information about the importance of dates would be appreciated.

Yes you are correct in your understanding of the PR82. As far as the date to use. The date you use will be the same as if it were a check. It will be the liability date. So if you are adjusting taxes or taxable's just make sure the date is in the same quarter as it will show up on the PR287 Schedule B.
