Additional Information

When the Control Setting for Include all Category 7 Direct Deposits in Net is set to Y, it will adjust the Net Pay and YTD Net Pay on the Advices and Advice Register.

The YTD Net Pay is calculated by looking to the Yearly Accumulators and summing all the gross amounts then subtracting employee deduction amounts. If the Control Setting is set to N it will subtract the additional direct deposit amounts. If the setting is set to Y, it will instead include those as part of the YTD Net Pay.

Example:

An employee's total Yearly Accumulator Gross amount is $90,000.00

Their Total Deductions equal $35,900.00. They have three Direct Deposits. The primary is deduction 9999 for $10,600.00 and there are two additional flat amount direct deposits for $25,000.00 and $5,000.00.

If the control setting is set to N, their YTD Net Pay will show $24,100.00

If the control setting is set to Y, their YTD Net Pay will show $54,100.00
