Entering a Wage Assignment with a Split Deduction

Access the Wage Attachment Revisions form and complete the steps for entering an ongoing wage assignment.

Group Limit Code

Enter a W in this field.

A UDC 07/GR that groups together DBAs that share common limitations. Use this field to group together wage assignments for the split of available wages.

When you enter a value in Split Deduction Flag for an employee who has multiple families, you must enter a group limit code.

Secondary Ded Flag (secondary deduction flag)

Enter the code that indicates whether the system uses the secondary amount or percent fields when the number of periods is zero. This field applies when the Method is 1, 2, 3, or 4. Values are:

N: Do not use the Amount 2 or Percent 2 field in the calculation of the Child Support Deduction.

1: When Number of Periods is zero (0), use Amount 2 in conjunction with Percent 1.

2: When Number of Periods is zero (0), use Percent 2 in conjunction with Amount 1.

If you enter 2 in Secondary Deduction Flag and 1 or 2 in the Method field, the system uses the Percent 2 field and the Amount 1 field to calculate the deduction amount after the value in the Number of Periods field equals 0.

Family Code

Enter the code that indicates whether the employee (Obligor) is single or supports another family. Values are:

S: Single, supporting oneself.

M: Married, supporting another family.

H: Single, supporting another family.
