Payroll error message

Hello. I've got a new installation of PT Complete 2006 and have
generated my own tax formulas.

When I try to generate payroll checks, I get error messages ("Can't
find FIT 07, Can't find FICA EE 07"). When I click OK to the
messages, the payroll deductions are calculated correctly and
deducted from the paycheck gross amount as you would expect.

So, my question is, if PT can't find my formulas, how come it
has no trouble using them for the payroll deductions?

Thanks in advance for any help with this one.

Check the date of the paycheck. It should not be looking for the 07 tax Ids
until January 07 paychecks.

Hmmm. A possibility. However, the error message states that it
indeed is looking for FIT 07 (which really is there). I'll wait a few
weeks until it really is 07. Then, if it still doesn't work, I'll
have a more valid reason to panic. Thanks very much.

why wait? Change your computer clock to 1/1/07 and see what happens.

The other possibility is that there is a problem with how you have specified
the tax IDs or tax names on those entries and PT can't find those codes. I
would check both the default employee settings as well as your employee
profiles. Something is not specified correctly.

Is the IRS pub 15 for the 2007 tables available yet? we are thinking of
skipping the tax subscription this year and doing it ourselves.

The Circular E isn't up on the IRS web site yet. Here's a link to part of
the 2007 rates:
