Workers Compensation (S217)
This report when configured; sorry my demo company isn't tracking WC yet, will display your WC rate and comp costs by employee. It can also be useful during a WC audit as you may use this report across date ranges and export as ASCII or Excel. To function properly the WC rates need to be input on the Company>>General>>Worker's Comp tab and assigned to each employee prior to payroll processing. It is often recommended that the WC codes be linked to each department area by default so as to auto-assign properly as you hire new employees. To link to your Departments; go to Company >> Div/Branch/Dept/Team and assign to each lowest level's "defaults" tab. Gross WC Earnings should also be assigned using an E/D Group and linked at the Company WC tab to exclude an NT items.
