Some deductions are pulling into payroll with negative amounts
Description of Issue
We made some changes to some deductions this pay period and after doing the global purge and add they are pulling in with negative amounts and not the amount defined in Employee Deductions.Â
Context
- Munis
- Deduction and Benefit Master
- Employee Deductions
- Payroll Start and Status
- Earnings and Deductions
- Global Access to Deduction Records
Cause
The deductions all had an employer limit defined but there was no Limit Type defined in Deduction and Benefit Master so it defaults to Calendar when it should have been Monthly.
Resolution
- Go to Deduction and Benefit Master (Payroll>Payroll Setup>Deduction and Benefit Master)
- Search for the Deduction(s). Click Update. Define applicable Limit Type (M-Monthly in this case). Click Accept.Â
- Go back into Earnings and Deductions (Payroll>Payroll Processing>Payroll Start and Status. Search for the warrant. Click Change. Click Earnings and Deductions)
- Use How to globally delete and add a deduction in payroll to purge and add the deduction(s) from the payroll to pull in the correct calculated amounts.Â
