After upgrading to 20.3 or higher, FWH calculates lower or not at all
Description
Cause
Changes to Federal Withholding tax (FWH) were implemented in version 18.4.1 Update 3. IF Update 3 was not installed on the workstation where Payroll was processed, FWH tax calculated a higher amount than was designated in the IRS tax withholding tables.

If the employee would like the tax to calculate differently, you can review How do I set up employees to use the new Form W-4?, which will cover the process to set the new W-4 and what options are available.
You can confirm the results on the IRS website which includes a downloadable tax calculator.
