Drake Accounting - Additional Payroll Options

Overview

Under Employees > Payroll > Live or ATF, there are additional payroll options from which to choose:

• ​Healthcare

  • Select this option if the employee has healthcare.

• FUTA Exempt

  • Select this option to avoid adding the payment amount for this check to payroll for FUTA purposes.

• Mark Printed

  • This field indicates whether the paycheck should print for the employee.

    • Live Payroll

      • When Mark Printed is selected, Drake Accounting recognizes this particular check as having been printed even though it has been entered in Live Payroll.

      • The check will not appear as a check to print under Employees > Check Print.

      • This field changes to the No Stub option (see below) for direct deposit employees.

    • ATF Payroll

      • The Mark Printed field is selected for non-direct deposit employees, and editing cannot take place.

      • ATF checks do not appear as checks to print under Employees > Check Print.

      • This field changes to the No Stub option for direct deposit employees.

• No Stub

  • Live Payroll

    • When selected, this option indicates that no check stub should print for the selected direct deposit pay.

    • A Check Date must be entered on the Live Payroll screen.

      • When this option is selected, no print record displays in Employees > Check Print.

      • The pay information automatically posts to the journal.

      • This field changes to Mark Printed option for employees not set up for direct deposit.

  • ATF Payroll

    • ATF stubs do not appear as stubs to print under Employees > Check Print but can be printed by selecting Reprint checks.

    • The pay information automatically posts to the journal when the payment information is saved.

    • The No Stub field changes to the Mark Printed option for non-direct deposit employees.

• Direct Deposit

  • This option indicates that the check will be direct deposited based on information under Employee Setup.

  • This allows you to designate if an employee will have direct deposit for that check or not (who has direct deposit set up).

  • If you uncheck it, the employee will not be direct deposit for that check and will have a paper check.​

• Test Direct Deposit

  • Select this option to create a "test check" Direct Deposit file for the selected employee that can transmit to Kotapay.

  • When this option is selected, all amounts on the check change to zeros.

    • A test transmission file occurs when the test check is generated.

  • Create a separate test transmission file for each employee.

• NAICS

  • Some states use the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) to collect and analyze statistical data related to their economy.

  • These codes identify the type, or class, of work the employee does. Enter the employee's NAICS code, if applicable.

Verify the information on the check by clicking the Check Info button in the upper right corner of the screen. ​This button displays a read-only additional check information window that shows the check's wages, accrued hours, benefit and deduction information, and more.​
