Federal

Federal tax updates can be accessed by navigating to the Federal section under Tax Withholdings. If Federal withholding is marked as exempt, the Dependent Amount, Other Income, Deductions, and Extra Withholdings values will be set to “0".



State

If working state indicated an exempt, the withholding values should be updated manually in ADP.



Local

If an employee works or resides in Ohio (OH), Pennsylvania (PA), or New York (NY), the Locality and the associated Type fields in the Local Tax Withholding section will be updated based on the local tax code selected on the Complete Job Details (CJD) page. For example, if an Ohio School District tax code is selected, the Locality field will be updated with the code, and the Type will be set to "School District Tax". Similarly, if a Pennsylvania local tax code is selected, the Locality field will be updated with the code, and the Type will be set to "Local 4" or "Local 5".

An example of the local tax code updated for the Ohio School District is shown below:
