The Detail Report by Department is used to display a list of payroll checks that were expensed to each department for a specified date range. Time cards that were not expensed to a department code will be grouped at the top of the report. Columns on this report include gross pay and payroll burden items. The detail records may consist of multiple lines for each check written in order to list all the various pay types that may exist for each check.
The transaction date version of this report is excellent for reconciling the payroll wages and burden amounts to the general ledger. The department code descriptions will include the general ledger account numbers where these amounts were expensed, and this report will itemize the individual components of that burden calculation.
 | Note: Union burden will be listed as a total amount per each check. You will need to refer to the union code benefit schedule for an itemized list of these charges. |

•The following reports do not include the % Burden feature that was introduced with software version 9.1.0.1. This feature will allow you to compute a burden amount for each department code based on a percentage of the gross payroll wages. These reports should only be used for transactions that were created prior to installing version 9.1.0.1.
❑Detail Report by Department - W/E Date (prrep12a.633)
❑Detail Report by Department - Trans Date (prrep12b.634)
| Note: Payroll transactions are posted to the general ledger based on the payroll check date. Your payroll tax liability is also based on the check date, therefore, it is recommended that most reports in the payroll system be printed with the transaction date (check date) option. Certified payroll reports and union reports are printed based on the week ending date. Please check with your company's CPA if you are not sure which date option that you should use. |
