Employee Deduction Frequency





Description of Issue

What does the Frequency field in the Employee Deduction program do? I selected the Biweekly Frequency, but the the deduction is still coming into my Biweekly payroll.



Context
  • Munis

  • Employee Deductions

  • Payroll Start and Status



Cause

The Frequency needs to be defined in the Exclude Deductions program's Frequency list in order to prevent it from coming into the payroll. The Payroll Run Control name does not impact if the deduction is part of the payroll or not.



Resolution

The Frequency selected on the Employee Deduction records needs to be defined in the Exclude Deductions folder of the Generate Earnings and Deductions program.

  1. Go to the Payroll Start and Status program (Human Capital Management>Payroll>Payroll Processing>Payroll Start and Status)

  2. Click Generate Earnings and Deductions to open the program

  3. When the Payroll Process pop-up window appears, click Yes to continue

  4. Click the Exclude Deductions folder

  5. Click Update to edit the values on the screen

  6. Click the dropdown arrow under the Frequency option and select the Frequency that matches the frequency entered on the Employee Deduction record

  7. Click Accept to save the change

  8. Click Back and process payroll as normal. Any deduction records that have a the same frequency as the frequency defined in the Exclude Deductions folder will not generate into the payroll
