Hi NancyJ1,
I totally get how tricky it is when you have staff across multiple states; the current setup is somewhat limiting for that use case.
At the moment, the software still doesn’t split payroll tax by state automatically. The workaround is:
- Set up each state in Setup > General Payroll Information > Set Up Payroll Tax
- For each state:
- Run the Payroll Tax report
- Use Payroll Register Detail to find any employees who are actually based in other states
- Subtract those “out‑of‑state” amounts from that state’s total
Then just repeat that for each state, and switch your default payroll tax state back to NSW once you’re done.
