FICA/Medicare Split

The FICA/Medicare Split table must be set up before processing expenses for FICA and Medicare. This table has the ability to use more than one fringe account for FICA and Medicare for Certified and Non-Certified employees. At this table, users can:

Store and maintain salary account codes for FICA and Medicare accounts.
Distribute expenses for FICA and Medicare.

The maintenance table OH FICA/Medicare Split (oh_splitcharge) must be set up before processing expenses for FICA and Medicare.

Menu Path: Human Resources > State > State > OH FICA/Medicare Split

Processing used for Manual Checks and Pay Run Processing:

Before distributing the FICA or Medicare benefit amount for distribution methods "P - Primary Pay Rate distribution" or "A - Pay Rate distribution" the employee's organization salary account is looked up in the new oh_splicharge table for the type of benefit being processed. The New Fringe Account is retrieved from the Medicare Split table where the Tax Type and Salary Account combination matches the employee's benefit type (FICA or Medicare) and salary account. The new account will then be used for distribution. If no matching record is found, the employee's original account will be used for distribution.

Processing used for Salary and Fringe Calculations:

Similar to Manual Checks and Pay Run Processing except the account retrieved is from the Next Year's Fringe Account field. If this field is blank the account from the New Fringe Account field will be used. If no matching record is found the employee's original account will be used for distribution.
