Default Single on the Federal Tax card
Now when you open the Employee Tax Maintenance screen, it defaults the Federal Filing Status to Exempt. Please change the default to at least Single in case this field is inadvertently not changed in the initial setup. It will at least take taxes out of an employee's check.
Reprint Historical Direct Deposit Earnings Statement
From the payroll inquiry screen when you click Recreate Pay Stub and that employee uses direct deposit, have it print the Direct Deposit Earnings Statement in the exact layout as it would if you were running payroll.
We allow you to print in the format we have, plus many view checks online.

Reprint Pay Statement Social Security Mask
Reports > Payroll > Reprint Journals > Reprint Pay Statement Would be nice if the social security mask setup flag was for this report with the other payroll reports on Microsoft Dynamics GP > Tools > Setup > Payroll > Payroll >SSN Mask window.
Hi Jeff, thanks for the suggestion, by default in the system the SSN is not on the reprint pay statement form, the customer must have added it on there, if they did while in report writer, you can do some of the mask options in RW. Since it is not on the default form, it would not be in the setup option.
Here are samples of how to mask in RW

PTO Statement, PTO Ledger, and PTO Reconciliation Report
Employees typically want a statement of their current balance for Sick and Vacation and how it's arrived at. This would include increases, usage (Descrease), and adjustments. This should be able to be produced for a specified cut-off date (Such as as-of the end of the year, etc). There should als...

Reprint Pay Statements available for Manual Checks
The "Reprint Pay Statement" report (Reports >> Payroll >> Reprint Journals > Reprint pay Statement) currently print the wrong Net Pay amount for Manual Checks. This should be corrected.
If you are using the employee self service portal, the employee does not have an option to print any checks that are a manual check, UPRMC type.
A payroll clerk who has access into GP could still print the reprint form for all types of audit trail codes.
Since manual checks types are used o adjust balances, this is part of the design of manual checks and will not be changed.
Any UPRMC audit trail code type reprints should not be given out to an employee as they are adjustments to the system.
Thanks
Generate ACH File
Would be nice to add a setup flag to be able to set to generate ACH file before posting payroll if desired just in case the file gets rejected by bank you'd be able to fix and resubmit file without voiding payroll payment for the issue and starting over with process.
This is not a feature we will consider for Dynamics GP at this time.

Separate Medicare & Social Security Company Paid For Pay Codes/Deductions/Benefits
COVID-19 reporting showed a need for this to happen for the future. I know from attending Terry Heley cOVID-19 webinar these are already separated in tables but we would need to separate them in setup and reporting so we don't have to manually calculate for the future.
Thank you for your suggestion. We will consider this functionality for a future release.
Best regards.
