Working Families' Tax Credit and Disabled Person's Tax Credit 

Use

From April 2000, employers will pay Working Families' Tax Credits (WFTC) and Disabled Person's Tax Credits (DPTC) to employees who have received an award from the Inland Revenue. Release 4.6C provides the functionality required to calculate the payment of tax credits to employees for the specified pay period. The amount calculated is added to the employee's net pay and shown separately on the employee's payslip.

A new infotype WFTC/DPTC (0087) is provided for recording the tax credit details. In the Tax credit award details group box, you enter the tax credit details received from the Inland Revenue. The start and end dates of the award correspond to the from and end dates of the infotype. Since tax credits are issued for 26 weeks, a warning is issued if the end date is not exactly 182 days after the start date. The system calculates the amount of tax credit to be paid to the employee per payroll period by multiplying the daily rate you enter by the number of calendar days in the payroll period.

Note
The daily rate provided by the Inland Revenue will be of varying amounts depending on the employee's personal circumstances.

Under Certificate of payments, you are required to record any certificate of payments issued by the employer when a tax credit is not paid.
