Sage needs a provision for payroll calculations for Unemployment Insurance in more than one state each year. I have checked with all the states we work with, and NONE of them will give us credit for unemployment insurance paid to another state, although Sage is set up under that understanding. So, when an employee moves to a new state, Sage should be able to start the threshold over again for that state since it seems prevalent in many states.

This would be helpful to any company that has employees in more than one state in one year. Because this does not exist in Sage, we have to manually figure these amounts for each payroll and enter overrides for each employee for each payroll period!

The addition of this provision would greatly streamline payroll creation, payroll tax accruals and assure proper payments of payroll tax deposits without additional manual entries and possible errors. This actually seems like an elementary provision that should be included in any multi-state payroll or accounting system.
