For localities that apply a flat marginal tax rate to all wages over a certain limit, use the Local Tax Tables dialog (together with the current tax manual for the applicable jurisdiction) to maintain wage and tax amounts for local income tax withholding on annualized, federal-style tax tables. Payroll CS uses this information to calculate local tax withholding amounts during payroll check entry.
Choose Setup > System Configuration > Payroll Tax Information > Local. Choose enter or choose the locality and then click the Edit button. In the General tab of the Local Tax Information dialog, click the Tables button. In Local Tax Tables dialog, first click the table that you wish to update and then click the Edit button - or click the Add button if you wish to create a new table.

Use the current tax manual for the selected jurisdiction to update the annualized withholding tables for that jurisdiction. The first row represents the zero bracket, so always enter 0.0000 in the first Plus Percent field for each table. The second row represents the lowest bracket, the third row represents the next-lowest bracket, and so forth.
You have the option to change the calculation basis for the tax table from annualized earnings to year-to-date earnings. For more information, see the Tiered rates example.
