Prerequisite

The fraction of a payee's salary that is attachable varies according to the salary limits set by the government.

Before you enter garnishments, you should review and update the salary limits used in the garnishment calculations on the Garnishment Bracket page.

To access this page, select Set Up HCM, and then Product Related, and then Global Payroll & Absence Mgmt, and then Garnishments/Court Orders, and then Bracket FRA.

Note:

To see the names of the variables that store the values in the garnishment bracket, access the Rates and Elements page (Set Up HCM, and then Product Related, and then Global Payroll & Absence Mgmt, and then Addl Rates, and then Ceilings, and then Values, and then Rates, and then Elements, and then Limits FRA) using the component name GPFR_GAR_RATES.

Note:

PeopleSoft delivers and maintains the salary limit values in the garnishment bracket; however, you can update these limits following legislative changes if you want to record the new values prior to receiving updates from PeopleSoft.
