Function
For those organizations that withhold Ohio School District Taxes for multiple School District taxing jurisdictions, this will supply reports summarizing taxable wages by Ohio School District Tax Code for the current period, Monthly Totals, Quarter to Date, and Year To Date. These reports can be useful in supplying the detail for various School District Tax reporting needs.
Things You Should Know
Operating Procedures
Month Ending: The current month end will be displayed.
Include SSN#: Check this box to include SSN# on report.
Edit Ohio School Tax Wages/Withholding tab: This step allows you to edit the Ohio School Tax Analysis for a specific employee(s). An example of a need for editing information would be if an employee moved from one School Taxing Jurisdiction to another, and the appropriate change had not been made to the School District Code on the Payroll and Compensation tab of the Employee File.
Note: Once an employee number is entered the grid will display all check dates for all jurisdictions.
The check date used for the edit record will determine whether or not the Monthly Totals, Quarter to Date totals, and Year to Date totals are affected. For example, if the current period is May, and the edit record is dated May, the effect will be seen on the Monthly, Quarter to Date, and Year to Date columns. If, however, the current period is May and the edit record is dated April, the effect will be seen only on the Quarter to Date and Year to Date columns. And accordingly, if the current period is May and the edit record is dated March, the effect will only be seen on the Year to Date columns.

Things You Should Know
- The information on these reports is prepared on a calendar year basis, and is obtained from the tables that hold the employee’s W-2 information.
- All employees will appear on the Ohio School Tax Analysis so you can compare it to the Payroll Deductions Register. If their School District code is 0, no School District wages will be reflected on the W2.
- For those school districts where this applies, the school district tax will be based on gross wages less any deductions deferred from state taxes.
