Input Employee Wages WARP logo

The Input Employee Wages screen allows you to add new wage amounts, and modify existing wage amounts for each of your employees, in a selected year and quarter. This screen can be accessed from the WOW Main Menu screen.
NOTE: Employees cannot be added or modified on this screen. You must use the "Input\Update Employees" screen to modify your list of employees.

This screen has the following sections:

EMPLOYER
WAGE QUARTER INFORMATION
EMPLOYEES AND WAGES
BUTTONS

EMPLOYER

This section displays information for the employer that was selected on the WOW Main Menu screen, so that you can easily keep track of which employer you are currently working on. It cannot be modified.

FEIN field

WOW displays the FEIN (Federal Employer Identification Number) of the selected Employer.

UI Acct No field

WOW displays the Montana UI Account Number of the selected Employer.

Business Name field

WOW displays the Business Name of the selected Employer.

WAGE QUARTER INFORMATION

This section displays three drop down boxes, and a button.

Year drop down box

Click in this box and select the Year for which you wish to add/modify wages, from the list of available choices.

Quarter drop down box

Click in this box and select the Quarter for which you wish to add/modify wages, from the list of available choices. Because UI was moved from the Department of Revenue to the Department of Labor & Industry in 2004, employers can only file previous quarters through 1st quarter 2004.

Sort By drop down box

Click in this box and select the Sort Order that you would like your employees to be displayed on the screen (either SSN or Last Name order are the available choices).

Show Wages button

After you have selected the desired values in the three drop down boxes, click this button to display the employees and wages for the selected year and quarter, in the sort order selected.
After clicking this button, WOW is ready for you to begin adding and/or modifying your employee wages, for the quarter selected.

Last Name column

This column displays each employee's Last name, for the selected employer. This value cannot be modified on this screen (use Input\Update Employee to add/modify employee information).

First Name column
