Use the Depository Totals Report to summarize payroll tax amounts - federal depository amounts (including both the employees' withholdings and the employer's expense amounts), unemployment taxes, company matching amounts, state tax withholding amounts, and/or local tax withholding amounts. The report uses information derived from processed check records. You may print or preview this report based on checks from all checkbooks or from a single checkbook and within the data range that you specify. To change the primary sort method to department, mark the Departmental report checkbox, click the Department selection tab, and select the departments to include in the report (the default selection is Print all departments).

In the Print dialog, click the Reports tab and then double-click Depository Totals to move this report to the Selected pane.

    This option refers to the calendar month of the check creation, not of the check date.

    • Check number: Start/End

    These options include all checks entered during the specified quarter, regardless of the check date. You must also specify the year of the selected quarter - Current year or Previous year.
  • Current detail period/Previous detail period/Specific detail period (Only available if detailed payroll periods are active for this client)
    These options include check records created during the current, previous, or a specified detail payroll period.
    Note: If a current, previous, or detail payroll period is selected, the vendor check options are disabled because vendor checks do not store detailed payroll period dates.

For information on selecting an appropriate range option for your report, see Range options for reports overview.

Note: If the Departmental report checkbox is marked, you may also mark the New page for each dept checkbox.
