General—Payroll
- We addressed an issue where, in certain circumstances, a suspended batch could be inadvertently cleared after being suspended multiple times in theEnter Batch Handwritten Payroll Checksscreen.

- Adjusted Taxable Wages
One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) changes
- Pay items withW-2 Box 12 code TTand aSalary – Hours sensitivecalculation type will now auto-calculate the OBBBA OT amount during check entry.
- We addressed an issue with the automatic calculation of OBBBA OT in theEnter TransactionsandEnter Batch Payroll Checksscreens.Previously, clearing an OBBBA OT override, in certain circumstances, could unintentionally recalculate net pay based on employee settings or apply an incorrect overtime value to multiple employees. This behavior has been corrected so that clearing an OBBBA OT override now affects only the intended fields on the check and will no longer impact other employees or payroll calculations.noteFor existing payroll checks with incorrect OBBBA OT amounts, follow these steps:
- If liabilities haven't been generated (unprinted or handwritten checks)
- Select the check in theEnter Transactionsscreen.
- Select .
- If liabilities have been generated (printed or handwritten checks):
- Select the check in theEnter Transactionsscreen.noteTheRefresh Payroll Checkoption isn't available once liabilities have been generated.
- Select the ellipses next to theOBBBA OTfield.
- In the OBBBA OT Distributions grid, right-click the OBBBA OT amount and select either:
- Clear Override: Clears only the selected field.
- Clear Check Overrides: Clears all overrides in the grid.
- SelectDone, thenEnterto resave the check.
