Description

Maximum Payback Amount and Maximum Arrears Payback

When employee net pay is insufficient to cover a deduction and deducting all appropriate amounts is not possible, the employee is in arrears. That is, the employee owes the employer for a deduction that could not be made.

Use these fields, to specify how the system handles the payback of arrears balances by indicating the maximum amount of arrears payback that can be taken out of an employee's paycheck.

Deduction Period

This group box enables you to override the deduction frequency. Normally, the frequency with which a deduction is taken from an employee's paycheck is controlled through the deduction table and paygroup.
