Documentation

Definition

This field indicates whether W-4 (or equivalent) information (from Infotype 0210 - W-4 Withholding Info.) is permissible for the authority and whether this information may be inherited from the federal authority.

For example:

• Mandatory: The W-4 information is mandatory. If no infotype record exists for the employee, the employee is taxed according to the valid federal/state defaults
• Optional for state (exemption on a separate form): The filing status from the federal authority is used if no information is specified for the state; state exemptions require a separate form
• Not allowed for state (exemption on a separate form): The filing status from the federal authority is used; state exemptions require a separate form
• Not applicable for state: The state does not levy withholding tax
• Optional for state: The filing status and number of exemptions from the federal authority are used if no information is specified for the state
• Not allowed for state: The filing status and number of exemptions from the federal authority are used and Infotype 0210 is not permitted for the state
