Illustrative example

Input: An employee relocates from California to Texas on August 10, mid-pay-period. Ask the payroll agent how state tax withholding for the current period will be calculated.
Expected behavior: Explains that withholding is split by effective-dated work location within the period, that the continuous calculation engine recalculates affected earnings, and that each state's rules apply to its portion — rather than applying one state's rate to the whole period.
