Help & How-To Center content for the Creative Solutions Accounting platform may be outdated and is used at your own risk.

The State of New York signed into law the Wage Theft Prevention Act, effective April 12, 2011, which requires detailed information to be included on pay stubs for pay rates, gross wages, deductions, and net wages.

By including appropriate variables on the check layouts that you select for New York clients and employees, you can have the application include all of the pay stub information required to comply with this law.

The names of most of the check layout variables provided with the application are sufficiently descriptive to help you choose appropriate variables to include on the stub portions of your payroll check layouts. In addition, to display certain required information, you may need to select the following payroll check layout variables:

• Employee Text<n>: You can use these variables (from the Employee/Check section of the payroll check variables list) to display the exact content from the five user-defined text fields in the first grid on the Personal/W-2 tab of the Setup > Employees window.
• Current Payroll Item Descriptions and YTD Payroll Item Descriptions: You can use these variables to display the descriptions (such as basis of pay information - whether pay is by the hour, shift, day, week, salary, piece, commission, or on another basis) specified for the various payroll items selected for any employee. Examples: "Wages - Hourly"; "Wages - Per Shift"; or "Salary - Weekly."
