There could be 1 of 3 reasons why it is not working for the employee/user:
1. Inactive records in W-4 ESS Setup for Federal and State Records
From the Munis ERP menu, navigate to Human Capital Management > Payroll > Payroll Setup > Income Tax Setup > W-4 ESS Setup
Browse Federal and State records that are Inactive
Click Accept
Click Update
Enable the Active Checkbox
Click Accept
Once activated the error will go away.
2. This employee doesn't have a current Federal Income Tax Deduction set
Update the employee's Federal Income Tax Deduction to be Active and to not have an End Date in the past
Menu → Human Capital Management → Payroll → Employee Maintenance → Employee Deductions
3. Paycheck Simulator is unable to determine the appropriate warrant when preparing simulation data
Access Munis > Human Capital Management > Human Resources > Employee Job/Pay Classification > Employee Net Pay Simulator
Use the Search button to establish the simulation for any example employee
Log Out of ESS, then Log In
Click Pay/Tax Information > Paycheck Simulator
