AptaFund provides the ability for an employee to fill out federal and state W-4 forms online and submit them for approval.
Users with payroll manager, payroll admin, or fund admin permissions can then view and approve or reject the changes.
Employees are notified by email when their change requests have been approved or rejected.
If the request is rejected, the employee will be able to see the reason for rejection in the Comment column.
