Quarterly Wage - Setup

Use the OH Quarterly Wage - Setup page to configure employer information required for generating the Ohio Quarterly Wage Report. This page allows users to enter and maintain employer identification, address, contact, and tax information for inclusion in electronic file submissions to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS). The data is used to populate the Employer Record (Record Type A and E) sections of the electronic quarterly wage file.

When setting up an employer record for the first time, the default data for the current tax year is retrieved from the W2 employer data. If the W2 employer data needs updating, you can update it as needed. This data is not synchronized with the W2 employer data. You should update the source W2 employer data before performing this procedure.

Perform the following setup procedure before creating the Quarterly Wage report.

On the OH Quarterly Wage page, select Setup.
Refer to the Field descriptions and enter or select valid information.
