• • The W2 Processing program verifies that the annuity (generally in the 500-599 payroll items code range) payroll item amount equals the calculated annuity amount. The calculated amount is determined by taking the total gross and subtracting the taxable gross. The result is the amount of the annuity that was in effect while the tax was being withheld. If this calculated value differs from the totals on the annuity records, the warning appears. 
    This warning is often associated with a change that has been made to the taxable gross but no corresponding change was made to the total gross or vice versa. Manual adjustments in CORE/ADJUSTMENTS option to the annuity amounts may also cause this warning. Run the Audit Trail report to attempt to isolate these situations. 
    If an annuity was in effect for only part of the year, this warning may appear and can be ignored.
    
    • Using Core/Adjustment, enter an adjustment to the Total Gross to Federal, State, City (if they honored the annuity initially) OSDI  and Medicare

...

• • On the federal tax record, there is a pension plan box flag. This flag is used to indicate if the pension plan box on the W2 should be checked. There are three values for the flag:
    
    • Automatically check the pension plan box per W2 Processing calculations
      Yes, check the pension plan box
      No, never check the pension plan box
