Basic Instructions for Printing W-2 Forms

When printing all W-2s the following screen will appear, fill out all applicable files and options:

...

  • Answer Y/N to Combined Local Tax Codes. 
    Answering yes adds an employee’s year to date total records from multiple local tax codes within the same state to output a single W-2 form. 
    This option allows manual edits to Year-to-date totals to be combined with check totals:

    • If answering Yes, leave the Local Tax Code field blank to include employees with any local tax code. 

    • If answering No, then select the Local Tax Code to print on the W-2 form

  • Enter the administrative location code in the Location Code input field to limit the selection of employees to a single location per their Employee setup. Leave this input field blank to include employees with any administrative location code.

  • The control number is for the users benefit and is not used by the IRS.  This optional sequential number may be printed in Box d of the W-2 form for you to track which printing run this is.

  • The selection of employees may be restricted to a range of name ID types.

    • Enter values in the Beginning and Ending Name ID Typerange selection input fields.

    • Leave these input fields blank to include employees with any name ID type.

  • W-2 Forms Ordered by:
