How to set up a monthly deduction limit





Description of Issue

How do I set up a limit to be enforced monthly with unique limits for each employee?



Context
  • Munis

  • Deduction and Benefit Master

  • Employee Deductions



Cause

Munis rounds deduction withholding to two decimal places, site bases withholding off of four decimal places. Due to the rounding to two decimal places, employee's withholdings are off a penny throughout the month.



Resolution

Set the limit type on the Deduction Master record:

  1. Access Deduction and Benefit Master: Payroll > Payroll Setup > Deduction and Benefit Master

  2. Search on the deduction code, click Update and select M - MONTHLY from the Limit Type drop-down menu

  3. Click Accept

Set the limit value in Employee Deductions:

  1. Access Employee Deductions: Payroll > Employee Maintenance > Employee Deductions

  2. Search for the employee and deduction code

  3. Click Update, TAB into the Employee Limit field and enter the desired limit value

  4. Click Accept
