Select payroll options

When you create separate bonus or commission checks, you can choose from one or more of the following payroll options:

Use supplemental tax rates
Include HSA deductions if applicable
Include HSA deductions + contributions if applicable
Include retirement deductions if applicable
Include retirement deductions + contributions if applicable
Add pay period

The HSA and retirement payroll options appear in the list only if they are applicable to at least one employee in the payroll run. We include deductions and contributions only for those enrolled in a plan and only if they have not reached that plan's deduction limit. We don't include them on other employees’ paychecks.

To select one or more payroll options:

Run payroll for Bonus only or Commission only.

At the bottom of the screen, click the pencil icon next to Payroll options.

Select the checkboxes next to the options you want to apply.

Use supplemental tax rates is automatically selected for you. You can clear this checkbox if you want to use your regular tax rate. What is a supplemental tax rate?
Select the checkbox next to Include HSA deductions to contribute to your Health Savings Account. (If your company also makes a contribution, you'll see Include HSA deductions + contributions instead.)
Select the checkbox next to Include retirement deductions to contribute to your retirement account. (If your company also makes a contribution, you'll see Include retirement deductions + contributions instead.)
Select the checkbox next to Show pay period dates if you're running a separate bonus or commission only run and you need to specify a range of dates to track the dates that the paycheck covers.

Click Apply.
