HSA Submission File

Once the HSA submission file is created, a payroll cannot be unposted.

When a payroll is posted, HSA Payroll Item amounts are placed in the Outstanding Payables.  Once the HSA submission file is created, these HSA amounts are removed from the Outstanding Payables. If you want your payables reports to include HSA payroll items, it is suggested you go to Outstanding Payables and generate the Payables Reports>Full Report and Summary Report prior to creating the HSA submission file.

Corrections can be made to the HSA report/submission file by creating Payables Adjustments.  If a Payables Adjustments is added after the HSA submission file is created, the amount will be included the next time the HSA submission that is created. Payables Adjustments will only be included if the HSA Payroll Item was withheld during the current payroll. The system will first find the HSA Payroll Item withheld during the payroll. If an amount is located, the Payables Adjustment amount is added to the payroll amount withheld.

If a HSA Payroll Item>ACH Configuration is missed for an employee and the payroll has been posted, enter the appropriate ACH Direct Deposit Type, Ach Account Number, and Ach Destination and regenerate the HSA ACH Report and generate the submission file.
