Rate Tables
Use the Rate Tables form to calculate client-sponsored benefit plan deductions and client match amounts. Once calculated, the system can report the total benefit premium amounts in box 12 (Code DD) of Form W-2.
Note: You can use Rate Tables only in conjunction with Deduction Codes that have a Voluntary Deduction Type and an RT Calculation Method selected. See Maintaining Global Deduction Codes for more information.
