Colorado Department of Labor has sent me a letter about my unemployment rates next year and has a couple new fields not captured in Quickbooks Payroll - they are Percent of Excess and Support Rate - the later is calculated in the Total Combined rate.  How do you account for this in Quickbooks Payroll whhich does not have these fields as an option?
