</span></span><![endif]>A bug was discovered when city or Medicare/FICA deductions were defined by job. For details about this issue, go to this link,
<a href="http://ssdt.oecn.k12.oh.us/lKl">http://ssdt.oecn.k12.oh.us/lKl</a>. The release fixes the Medicare/FICA issue for 2016. They are still working on the fix for City tax deductions. I looked at all MVECA district’s city and Medicare deductions to see
if any of our districts would have been affected by this issue. I contacted those districts that need to make changes.

<p class="MsoListParagraph"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph">The deduction by job field is configured in the Deduction Master (DEDNAM), JOB_LEVEL field. As you add new city deductions, please consider, carefully, if the deduction needs to be defined to specific jobs. The valid values for
this field are NO= N or blank, YES= Y. <o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>CALCPAY - Read the attached release notes for details. For 2015, check the city deductions taxable gross for employees paid NC1, NC2 or NC3 payments. Non-cash amounts were always reported as taxed even if the deduction configuration
was “N” to tax non-cash earnings. The taxable gross field was increased by the non-cash amounts. This causes a problem when W2s are submitted to the municipality with an inflated taxable gross and the withholding is no longer at the correct percentage.
<b><u>You may need to modify the taxable gross on any city deduction that doesn’t tax non-cash earnings before W2PROC</u></b>.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Also, CALCPAY was updated to include non-cash amounts in the total taxable fields for Ohio, other state, city and OSDI deductions. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Let me know if you have any questions. I will be in the office Monday and Tuesday of next week.
