Securing Confidential Payroll Image Files
Find instructions for securing confidential payroll image files.
Issue
Images scanned into Confidential Payroll Timecard Entry using Document Imaging are available for view to any operator who has security to run a Job Cost History Report in the Job Company, instead of being viewable only by intended users.Solution
Add Job Company USERS to the Confidential Company with limited access to that company and limit the DI settings for that Operator in the Confidential Company.
The users being added will have no access to actually do anything in the Confidential PR Company; Level 1 in PA & no other module(s) is sufficient. In the Documents tab – the operator's security can be set to a security level of 0, or leave the operator's security at the default and add an Override to the EMPLOYEE Cabinet with a level of 0.
Results
Any operator set up this way in the Confidential Company will no longer have access to view the time card images for Summary Transaction postings from the Confidential Company. They will see the "Summary Transaction" description, but there is no link to the scanned image. They will, however still be able to view transactions scanned in the regular Job company for Payroll.
Nothing needs to be done to those operators that you do want to be able to view images from the Confidential Payroll in the regular company.

Refund. Even if you do not have to file a tax return, you should file to get a refund if box 2 shows Federal income tax withheld, or if you can take the earned income credit.
Earned income credit (EIC). You must file a tax return if any amount is shown in box 9.
You may be able to take the EIC for 2004 if (a) you do not have a qualifying child and you earned less than $11,490 ($12,490 if married filing jointly), (b) you have one qualifying child and you earned less than $30,338 ($31,338 if married filing jointly), or (c) you have more than one qualifying child and you earned less than $34,458 ($35,458 if married filing jointly). You and any qualifying children must have valid social security numbers (SSNs). You cannot claim the EIC if your investment income is more than $2,650. Any EIC that is more than your tax liability is refunded to you, but only if you file a tax return. If you have at least one qualifying child, you may get as much as $1,563 of the EIC in advance by completing Form W-5, Earned Income Credit Advance Payment Certificate, and giving it to your employer.
Clergy and religious workers. If you are not subject to social security and Medicare taxes, see Pub. 517, Social Security and Other Information for Members of the Clergy and Religious Workers.
Corrections. If your name, SSN, or address is incorrect, correct Copies B, C, and 2 and ask your employer to correct your employment record. Be sure to ask the employer to file Form W-2c, Corrected Wage and Tax Statement, with the Social Security Administration (SSA) to correct any name, SSN, or money amount error reported to the SSA on Form W-2. If your name and SSN are correct but are not the same as shown on your social security card, you should request a new card from the SSA.
Credit for excess taxes. If you had more than one employer in 2004 and more than $5,449.80 in social security and/or Tier 1 railroad retirement (RRTA) taxes were withheld, you may be able to claim a credit for the excess against your Federal income tax. If you had more than one railroad employer and more than $3,189.90 in Tier 2 RRTA tax was withheld, you also may be able to claim a credit. See your Form 1040 or 1040A instructions and Pub. 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax.
