What is Master Tax?
Master Tax is a 3rd party resource to assist in payroll tax filings. There are two types of file exports (PTS & RTS) built into Enterprise which allow us to import data from Enterprise into Master Tax. This data allows you to generate returns and ACH bulk file uploads from Master Tax to complete tax filings.
*Note* This is an additional module that may be added into your database. Please work with a TempWorks representative for assistance.
