Reprinting Form W-2 Employee
Copies with Address Changes
Use
When reprinting employee copies of Form W-2, even after magnetic media has already been
filed with the Social Security Administration, Tax Reporter reviews the most current mailing
address of the employee and records it on Form W-2. Providing that the personnel number of
the employee was specified before reprinting began
To minimize the impact on performance that would be caused if the system were to review
master data for each and every employee. Tax Reporter will continue to read address
information from forms cluster PCL4 when printing employee copies of Form W-2 for the entire
employee population within the selected tax company.
Procedure
1, Using the Print copies function, you may now specify one or more employee numbers to
produce Form W-2 reprints. The Print copies function button is located on the Productive
run screen. For each employee number specified here, Tax Reporter will
review ADDRS feature to determine which subtype of the Addresses infotype (0006) should
be used during reprinting. (To configure ADDRS feature, execute transaction PE@3.)
2. The system reviews the Addresses infotype (0006) to obtain the most current record for
the employee(s) specified. Ensuring that the most recent (that is, correct) address is
displayed on the reprinted form
If a new address is used during reprinting of Form W-2, Tax Reporter will issue a
corresponding message {New address used for reprint, alongside the affected employee
number(s)} under the “Errors and warnings” section of the Tax Reporter log
If no employee number is specified in conjunction with the Print copies function, then Tax
Reporter will not review employee master data for address changes, and previously
recorded addresses will continue to appear on reprinted employee copies of Form W-2
Caution
Although the Print copies function enables Form W-2 reprints to reflect changed employee
addresses, this enhancement will not update address data in form cluster PCL4
