Social Security wages missing from NC magnetic media

Payroll was reconciling quarterly reports and found that the NC state magnetic media social security wages did not match the FED information. They were able to determine what information is missing, but now I need to know how to correct the NC state mag media.
We have election workers who are allowed to make up to $1400 before any FICA taxes are withheld. Once the YTD value of election pay reaches that limit, the entire YTD amount of election pay is taxable.  Our consultant set up a wage type so that this YTD taxable election pay will automatically be transferred into a FICA taxable wage type. For all FED tax forms, the SS wages are correct; it is ONLY the NC state magnetic media that is incorrect (does not include the SS wages for the election pay over the limit).  Does anyone have suggestions as to what I can do to correct this?  The field on the mag media layout contains /703 and /403, but since there is no NC /703, those wages are missing on the tape.  The employee's remuneration is correct; it is the tax reporting that is incorrect.
Thanks in advance for your advice!

I am thinking that the problem is with the FICA taxable wage type itself. When I run a regular payroll and check the TCRT in ADDCU, there are no NC technical wage types, only FED (/303, /403, /404, /6xx, /7xx). Where do I get the NC technical wage types?  Is there something missing in BSI or some setting that is not set up for the state values?
Thanks!

  • An entire playlist "can't be found"; these titles are also missing from my music/media folder--where did they go?

    I had a Christmas playlist that worked until this year. All songs appear on the playlist w/exclamation point. All say "can't be found." They have disappeared from my music/media files. What happened? Where did they go? How can I get them back?

    There's not much to go on since we don't know what you've done to your computer over the past year, etc.
    Have you used Spotlight to search the hard drive for the files?  Did you perhaps drag them to the trash or a different directory sometime over the past 12 months?
    If they are iTunes purchases you can download them a second time.  If they are from a CD you can rip them again.  If you have an old computer backup you can restore them from that.

  • Potential IRS reporting change if Social Security rate is not extended

    Hello - We received notice from ADP that due to the Federal Social Security rate changes this year that if the current 4.2% rate is not extended that they feel the IRS will require separate reporting capabilities for the different tax rates applied throughout the 2012 tax year.  We are curious if SAP is addressing this issue systematically so that we will be able to comply with any changes to capturing and reporting 2012 taxes to the IRS. 
    Below is an excerpt from the notice received from ADP.  Thank you for any information you can provide on this matter...
    If the 4.2% Employee Social Security tax rate is not extended before we begin processing March 1 payrolls, ADP anticipates the likelihood that the IRS will require separate reporting to reflect the different rates for  Social Security wages, taxes, Tips, Uncollected Social Security tax on Tips and Group-Term Life (GTL), and non-taxable Third Party Sick Pay for each rate.
    In order to comply with the potential of separate reporting mandates, the existing fields will be used for reporting all wages and taxes applicable to the 4.20% rate.  ADP will create new field codes to capture and display all wages and taxes applicable to the 6.20% rate. These changes would require your company to store the Social Security wages, taxes, Tips, Uncollected Social Security tax on Tips and Group-Term Life (GTL), and non-taxable Third Party Sick Pay in a separate code within your payroll system.

    Kristy,
    While BSI and SAP will be on top of getting the correct rate out as soon as possible I do understand what ADP is refering to.  I also have a client that received that simialar notice.
    At this time nothing has been release from SAP on how they will attempt to handle this if indeed the IRS makes this a mandatotry rule for tax reporting in 2012.  ADP is just making the comment for now that it could happen but there is nothing in place that notes this as a mandate.  If the IRS determines this is to happen it will required a W-2 Form change and those are always delivered in the YE notes from SAP beginning in October each year.  My clients use processing class 30 in their wage types with a code of "T" so that they can set up accumulators. Since the tax of 4.2 is in place from Jan to March I feel that the Monthy and Quarterly accumulators will house the information needed to accomodate such a requirement. 
    How SAP will dictate this gets into the W-2 will have to wait until the IRS publishes an official guideline on the reporting.
    I know this is not the answer on "How this will be handled" but you will want to be sure to keep an eye out in October for SAP solutions that relate to 2012 Tax Reporting.  https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000733666&   
    Hope this helps.

    You say "if there is a value in 0014 subtype 6004 then...", so I will assume that you are talking of WT 6004 in Infotype 0014.
    So, in a PCR immediately after IT0014 is processed (with function P0014 in your schema), look for WT 6004.  If it exists with a number (or an amount), create a temporary variable to act as a "flag"  (as in ADDWT&6004 or ADDWT&HIRE).
    Then, in PCR ZSSM, you can query that temporary variable with the sequence of operations NUM=& HIRE NUM?0 (or NUM=& 6004 NUM?0 ). If the return value is =, it means that there was no IT0014 with WT 6004, and if the return value is * it means that there was.

  • Music is missing from Media files

    So I have many CD's I have copied to iTunes.  I copied them years ago.  I'm now trying to copy some of the music files from media to my phone (non-Apple) which requires me to do it from the media file location on my windows.
    I noticed music is missing from my music on iTunes.  I have not found a way to update/backup whatever to get the missing music to the media files?

    "Not sure how or what caused the Compilations folder in the file path."
    iTunes will put any songs for which the "Part of a Compilation" flag is set into the Compilations folder.  Unless you have an older type of iDevice there's really no need to ever use "Part of a Compilation" (and even if you do, its only necessary for "Various Artists" compilations).  In this example, if you select the album in iTunes, right-click > Get Info >  Summary tab and set Part of a Compilation to "No" (and assuming that you have configured iTunes to manage your library) the media will be moved to C:\Users\RS Desktop\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\.38 Special\Flashback_ The Best of .38 Special.
    "So after I moved a few songs over, went to iTunes to play.  It says it can't locate the songs."
    Ah, that may be the problem ... based on what you're reporting you have these two options set under Edit > Preferences > Advanced:
    This means that iTunes determines where to store media based on Artist and Album information - if you start moving files around yourself it will inevitably lose track of it (indeed, iTunes lacks any capability to keep track of media when moved by anything else, irrespective of its settings).
    "How do if I click on a song a pop up asks if I want to locate, then I can go to the media files folder and get the song, but that if individually."
    iTunes does sometimes automatically fix related links when you do this - however, it can't be guaranteed to do so and there is no "bulk fix" capability built into iTunes itself.
    If possible, restore your iTunes Media using a backup taken before you started moving files around.  Turingtest2 has a useful script (http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp#FindTracks) that may help to resolve further issues (as always, before you start running any scripts that may modify the content of your library take a backup first).

  • URL missing from Media tag

    I am trying to stream a live video from Adobe Media Server. I am sending  a video to the server from Adobe Flash Media Encoder 3.2. On Adobe Media Server I open the sample video player (videoplayer.html) in a browser. In the STREAM URL field I put: http://localhost/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/ liveevent.f4m. When I click the PLAY STREAM button I get the error message: URL missing from Media tag. What do I need to do?

    What is the stream name that you are publishing from FMLE? If it's "livestream?adbe-live-event=liveevent" then the url should be http://localhost/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.f4m .

  • MPEG-2 option missing from Adobe Media Encoder (ver7.2.0.43)

    Hi all,
    Having an issue getting the MPEG-2 option for our Creative Cloud installation, specifically in Media Encoder's presets.
    The following steps were recommended on another Adobe forum addressing this issue:
    1.Uninstall Adobe Premiere Pro or the Creative Suite.
    2.Run the cleanup script found here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    3.Reinstall Adobe Premiere Pro or the Creative Suite.
    4.Launch Adobe Premiere Pro.
    5.When prompted for activation during launch, ensure that the computer is online and complete activation.
    If the computer cannot be brought online, complete the offline activation during the first launch of the software. Do not choose to activate later.
    6.After Activation, close and restart Adobe Premiere Pro.
    We have been able to run through steps1 to 4, however the Activation option in #5 does not appear at all (must be activation is included as part of our CC license).
    Without the option to deactivate/activate Premiere how can we go about getting the MPEG-2 option to appear?
    Thanks again

    Hi Jim,
    I'm having the same problem of the mpeg 2 codecs missing from adobe media encoder.  I have 2 computers and on both of them the mpeg 2 options for encoding have disappeared today.  Can you please help? 

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS6 completely missing from Mastercollection CS6

    Computer Environment:
    MacBook Pro Early 2011
    Graphics  AMD Radeon HD 6490M 256 MB
    Memory  16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    SSD with 512GB; about 81GB are still free
    Mavericks  OS X 10.9.5
    Adobe Mastercollection CS6
    Quicktime Player (Standard)
    Problem:
    I am currently missing the sidekick Adobe Media Encoder (AME), even though I succesfully can run After Effects and Premier Pro.
    I cannot locate the AME app anywhere on my hard drive to launch it manually.
    Steps/general information:
    I initially was able to run AME, after fixing another problem with launching it by deleting the ExportQuickTimeHost.bundle / QuicktTimeHost.bundle as I have described in another post (https://forums.adobe.com/message/7221143#7221143 – #26 is my post).
    Unfortunately, the presets for Quicktime (I needed prores) were missing, even after I have done a workaround, by copying prores-codecs into AME plugins, as described in this post: martin-thoburn.com » Install the Apple ProRES codec without Final Cut or ProApps
    The next time launching QuickTime, I was not able to open it again.
    I uninstalled, reinstalled and updated After Effects and Premier Pro three times now and took away the QuickTimeHost.bundle from AME and Premiere Pro
    I also tried resetting ACL (through Utilities, when starting the MacBook with option key pressed down) as suggested by Seth Goldin in the post https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1010136
    I already tried wiping down the whole Adobe Suite, using the Cloud Cleaner Tool, delete the presets in the user library and then reinstall the apps: Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Acrobat, After Effects and Premiere Pro. There is now only the CS6 (and not for example some CC apps) on my Computer. All apps are up to date.
    I didn't install any other codecs by accident.
    Since AME was again not launching (Splash screen wasn't showing me any plugins, AME could have loaded). I simply deleted AME by trashing it.
    Now it's completely gone, even after reinstalling (and launching) After Effects and Premier Pro.
    By trying to install AME's updates (6.0.1 and 6.0.2) I naturally get an error message, since the main app is missing.
    I have battled with AME about half a year now, so things like reinstalling Lion and then Mavericks has occurred before as well.
    And unfortunately, I am in the middle of a big project, which is due in a month and two days. Hope the links are not too confusing
    – please look through them though, as the solutions I tried out are very clearly written in those posts.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Update in chronological order:
    I uninstalled the Cloud, which I kept for making updates; I also uninstalled everything from Adobe (CS6 mastercollection)
    I ran the Cloud cleaner tool
    I reinstalled only Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Premier Pro, After Effects and Acrobat. Bridge and AME were installed as sidekicks of Photoshop and AE/PP.
    So this has solved problem 1 already.
    On to problem 2 (update only):
    updated all adobe software, incl. DynamicLinkMediaServerRetail-1.0.1-mul-AdobeUpdate
    I installed Final Cut Pro 7
    I (re)installed Quicktime 7.6.6*
    I downloaded the Prores Presets for AME (as you suggested in post #2)
    I tried opening AME – that did not work, as it hung on the ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle
    Went to AME app, right clicked on app icon to get "Show package content">Contents>Plug-Ins>Common and deleted ExporterQuickTimeHost.bundle and ImporterQuickTimeHost.bundle
    repeated last step with Premiere Pro and AE
    I opened AE
    I tried importing the presets through AME>import>presets... That did not work. I get this pop-up message:
    restarted my computer
    tried again to import AME without luck
    tried the solution of this discussion Re: Quicktime Export options are missing (only in AME) (post #8)
            since I noticed that mine was changed back after the reinstallation. No luck.
    restarted the computer again. No luck.
    Put back only the ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle into AME's package content
    tried to open AME without luck
    removed the Quicktimebundle once more to open AME (worked)
    opened PP to check if I could export in queue: AME does not open by itself, still.
    I tried opening a prores file (end as .mov) that I encoded at university (not on my provate computer) – did not worl
    I checked if I could open a mov-file which was not encoded to prores: that worked.
    I looked into Martin Thoburn's method again to try one more time in AME to find the settings "Quicktime". No luck.
    I also have a third problem that may be linked to this, since it also has to do with PP and AE:
    Re: Can anyone help? "DynamicLink" not available attempting to open Mov in Photoshop CS6
    My post there is #22.
    But now that I absolutely made sure that I do have the prores codecs,
    I strongly suspect that it may also be a problem, which is discussed here:
    Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
    ...namely, that the codecs are just not visible. Unfortunately, this discussion is not resolved either.
    HarleyTDavis's post #30 of this discussion Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?
    suggests something complicated (because I yet would need another Adobe version), which I may try at some point.
    Alright. That is all the effort that I can afford in time for this. I am too exhausted to go on so I'll do a workaround in FCP
    – now that I got it – and will ask someone else to encode my outcome to a prores-Version.
    If I feel like it – and yeah, I'd rather work with the Adobe Suite CS6 mostly – I'll come back to this discussion after a having clean wiped my computer and reinstalled everything.
    Thanks to both of you for looking into this with me. I'm positive this can be solved – just not now.

  • F4M document contains errors - URL missing from Media tag

    I feel like I'm getting close to finally get a live stream to work correctly in 4.5
    I can see the streams being recorded in the following directories
         C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\streams\_definst_\liveevent1
         C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\streams\_definst_\liveevent2
         C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\streams\_definst_\liveevent3
    Each directory contains five files: bootstrap ,control, meta, f4f, and f4x.
    I have a single file called Event.xml in the directory: C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\events\_definst_\liveevent

    However the client player receives the exception F4M document contains errors - URL missing from Media tag.
    If this file is dynamically generated on the fly by the server what do I need to change to resolve this issue?

    I will suggest you to go through this doc for complete implementation details. It is pretty comprehendable and would help you understand http live streaming better.
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WSeb6b7485f9649bf23d103e5512e08f3a33 8-8000.html#WSd391de4d9c7bd609a95b3f112a373a7115-7ff6.
    As per your questions -
    1. "I try to access the stream using the local player at http://localhost/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.f4m" - This should be http://localhost/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/liveevent.f4m.
         The name of the f4m is the name of the event you are referring to. In your case, the live event - liveevent is associated with all your three livestreams- namely livestream1, livestream2. livestream3.
    2. "Do I need to create BOTH a 'manifest.xml' and a 'event.xml'? And do both of these files need to be in the event directory like below?" - Yes. If you are using mbr you need both these files at the exact place you mnetioned.
    For simple single bitrate streams, mainfest.xml file is optional.
    3. "If I need to manually create a manifest.xml file would this file and directory be correct?" - Yes, you are right on track. Create the file Manifest.xml and place it inside events directory at the place you mentioned.
    4. "Do I need to use a absolute url in the streamid field in manifest.xml to resolve the error msg 'The F4M document contains errors URL missing from Media tag'?" - No. This is not needed. StreamId is not the content path, that is taken care of by the url path in the output manifest. You streamIds will be - livestream1, livestream2, livestream3.
    After all this, I would suggest you to check one more thing. If you are publishing the way you mentioned above, there would be '.stream' files (For eg - 'MTYxMjAzMzAzMg=.stream' ) created in your events folder - "C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\events\_definst_\liveevent\". You should check that there are 3 and only three files formed. It somehow happens that when you publish and republish again without deleting these files, FMS creates multiple copies and tries to map each one to the actual content written at - C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\streams\_definst_\livestream1\ etc.. So there should be three files and each one should point to one of the streams directory. If there are more, please delete these files, delete your hds streaming content (if possible) and republish again the same way.
    This should solve your problem. If still you are facing some issues, do let us know.
    Thanks,

  • OSMF Player Error: URL missing from Media tag - HTTP Live

    When I try to play an HTTP Live Stream using OSMF Player, I get "URL missing from Media tag" error.
    I installed Flash MS4.0 with Apache2.2.

    It seems to me that it is a configuration issue, but I have no clue.
    I compared above manifest with a sample manifest that I found on Adobe's site, the attributes are same but the structure is not. Maybe that is causing OSMF to fail.
    Thanks for any suggestion!

    I am using other encoder than FMLE. I am publishing 3 streams.
    rtmp://x.y.z.w/livepkgr
    H264 BL3.0 60kbps, 160kbps and 310kbps & AAC-LC Stereo 32kHz 40kbps & Fragment duration 4 sec
    >>> matches C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 4\applications\livepkgr\events\_definst_\liveevent Event.xml and Manifest.xml files.
    <FragmentDuration>4000</FragmentDuration>
    <media streamId="livestream1" bitrate="100" />
    <media streamId="livestream2" bitrate="200" />
    <media streamId="livestream3" bitrate="350" />
    (e.g. 60kbps video + 40kbps audio for the 1st stream)
    I have Common output parameters > Stream Name configuration on my Live Transcoder and I write the following:
    livestream%i?adbe-live-event=liveevent&adbe-http-streaming-ver=1.0
    Then Admin Console > View Apps > Live Log includes the following:
    Stream name is: livestream%i1 and live event is: liveevent
    Stream name is: livestream%i2 and live event is: liveevent
    Stream name is: livestream%i3 and live event is: liveevent
    As you say, it seems %i above causes the problem, but how to fix it?
    My f4m includes the bitrates:
    <id> livepkgr/events/_definst_/liveevent </id>
    <mimeType> </mimeType>
    <streamType> live </streamType>
    <duration> 0 </duration>
    <media streamId="livestream1" bitrate="100">
    <metadata> </metadata>

  • Hi! I`'m from Russia and i want to buy the new unlocked iPhone 4S in the U.S. in November, but i need to know, am i need this doc's?"What to Bring with You  Your old mobile phone, if you're replacing it. Social Security number of the account holder. etc"

    Hi! I'm from Russia and i want to buy the new unlocked iPhone 4S in the U.S. in November, but i need to know, am i need this doc's?
    What to Bring with You
    Your old mobile phone, if you’re replacing it.
    Social Security number of the account holder.
    Valid government-issued photo ID.
    Carrier account password, if you have one.
    Your Apple ID and password.

    http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/
    According to Apple's list (link above) you will probably want to pick up a Sprint or US Cellular model. HOWEVER, as I mentioned above I know that the Verizon iPhones come unlocked from the factory (assuming it will be the same for iPhone 6 and 6+). I DO NOT KNOW if the Sprint and US Cellular models come unlocked. But I am sure some quick internet research will lead you to the answer.
    I think your goal would be to get a Sprint or US Cellular version. Also I believe a law was just recently passed that allows someone to have a phone unlocked by the carrier no questions asked. So even if the Sprint and US Cellular iPhones are locked you can have them unlocked.

  • OSMF: URL Missing from Media Tag: Adobe HDS

    Hi,
    I have an encoder publishing 2 streams livestream1 and livestream2 to the FMS livepkgr. I have a set-level manifest for the 2 bitrates, but I get the URl missing from media tag error. What is causing this ?
    <manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">
        <id>myVideo</id>
        <baseURL>http://172.16.3.60/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/</baseURL>
        <dvrInfo offline="false" windowDuration="600" />
        <streamType>live</streamType>
        <media url="livestream1.f4m" bitrate="300"/>
        <media url="livestream2.f4m" bitrate="800"/>    
    </manifest>
    I resorted to downloading the OSMF source code but cant fathom out why it thinks this XML is invalid and that the media url doesnt exist. 
    The streams play back indiviually no problem.
    Anyone got any ideas ?
    Mal

    Got it thanks Ed ! Downloaded 1.6 from:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/smp.adobe/files/Strobe%20Media%20Playback%201.6%20Release% 20%28source%20and%20binaries%29/
    and used this manifest
    <manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">   
        <baseURL>http://172.16.3.60/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent</baseURL>
        <dvrInfo offline="false" windowDuration="600" />
        <streamType>live</streamType>
        <media href="/livestream1.f4m" bitrate="300"/>
        <media href="/livestream2.f4m" bitrate="800"/>
