Create the legacy state unemployment export from General Ledger's after-the-fact payroll records. This is the accountant add-on option; its screen caption is Electronic U/C.
Using this option
- Review the employee payroll totals and company state unemployment setup for the quarter.
- On the employer screen, check company name, address, identification number, quarter-ending date, name format, employment type, and the applicable state selection and codes.
- Complete the submitter/contact screen and choose the output location. The older screen defaults to drive A:; use a valid location for your installation.
- Run the export and retain its report of wages, taxable wages, and employee count. Check those totals against Print State Unemployment Compensation Report.
Notes
The export is a legacy fixed-record format and is not an automatic online filing. Have ACS confirm that this format matches the destination state's accepted import before sending it.
Use the period's after-the-fact payroll records, not the separate Payroll system's records. Generating the file does not correct employee earnings or submit the file.
