Summary
Resolution
- Any new company set up in applicable states will have the appropriate state Paid Family and Medical Leave fields (either employee-paid, company-paid, or both) automatically added during Payroll Setup with the appropriate tax field assignments.
- For existing companies, the state PFML or PFL fields are not automatically created, and will require some setup.
Reporting enhancements:
- A section for Paid Family Leave is now included on the Tax Liability Report
- Aatrix support has been added so Paid Family and Medical Leave amounts will populate on the appropriate state Family and Medical Leave tax reports
Section 1: Existing company without Paid Family Leave fields already set up
If you do not already have the state PFL or PFML fields already set up, refer to the appropriate article below for setup instructions. If you have the paid leave field(s) set up already, then proceed to Section 2.
Note: Due to the complexities of the New Jersey tax setup, we are waiting to apply this functionality to New Jersey until we have reviewed the tax updates for year end. Changes will be forthcoming.
- Connecticut paid family leave setup
- DC Paid Family Leave - Setup Instructions
- MA Paid Medical and Family Leave - Setup Instructions
- New York Family Leave Act Instructions
- Washington Paid Family Leave Act setup instructions
- Connecticut paid family leave setup
- Setting up Oregon Paid Family Leave (ORPFL)
- New Jersey Family Leave (NJFLI) information for 2023
Once the fields are set up, proceed to Section 2, because you will need to assign the fields to the appropriate tax fields.
Section 2: Existing company, assigning PFL fields to tax fields
If you already have the Paid Family Leave field(s) set up in Employee Defaults, you will then need to assign them to the appropriate tax fields to allow them to report correctly to the Tax Liability Report and Aatrix forms.
- Go to Maintain, Payroll, Payroll Settings.
- Select Taxes, Assign Tax Fields.
- If you have a company-paid PFL field, select Company-Paid Taxes, select the appropriate PFL payroll field for Paid Family Leave, and click OK.
- Likewise, if you have an employee-paid PFL field, select Employee-Paid Taxes, select the appropriate PFL payroll field for Paid Family Leave, and click OK.
- Click Finish to close the Payroll Settings window.
