Adding 401K Contributions to Payroll

Hi! It is a requirement in California to offer 401K contributions. I am not using Guideline, and instead using the CalSaver program.

How do I set up these deductions in payroll? Both employees want to deduct 5% from their paychecks and roll it into their 401K. I don't see where I can add that into Square Payroll.

Hey @Bronze_Palms you can adjust and add benefit contributions by following these steps:

Go to your Team Member list and select the team member you'd like to add a contribution for.
In their Team profile, navigate to the Payroll tab.
Under Benefits and garnishments, click Add benefit.
Enter the contribution details, click Done, and then Save changes.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!
