Local dialog

Use the Local dialog to add or modify certain information to be used for local tax agents. For each individual tax, you can specify a different withholding ID and deposit schedule to use and also specify whether or not the client has nexus in this locality.
If a client has a nexus in a jurisdiction, it means that they have a business connection or a presence in that jurisdiction and are therefore subject to state or local income and sales taxes.
Select
Setup
>
Clients
, then select the
Payroll Taxes
tab, and select the
Local
button in the State section.

Fields & buttons

Local grid
The grid contains a list of the local taxes that apply to the selected client. If you want to specify a withholding ID to be used with a tax, enter it in the Withholding ID column. In addition, you can modify the deposit schedule for the agent that corresponds to each tax. If the client has a nexus in this locality, you can specify that here by marking the checkbox in the Nexus column.
If a client has
nexus
in a jurisdiction, it means that they have a business connection or a presence in that jurisdiction and are therefore subject to state or local income and sales taxes.
If you accessed the Local dialog via the
Payroll Tax Forms tab of the Setup > Payroll Consolidation Groups
screen, you can select the
Do not consolidate
checkbox if you don’t want local payroll tax forms to be consolidated with those of other clients in the consolidation group.
