Deduction Override Processing During Pay Calculation

The Pay Calculation process first uses the deduction override evaluation and the paysheet update processes to update the Benefit Deductions Taken, Benefit Ded Subset ID, General Deductions Taken, and General Ded Subset ID on the paysheets. The Pay Calculation process uses these values on the paysheet to select deductions for pay calculation.

Paysheet Update Process

During the paysheet update process in pay calculation, the program accesses the deduction status indicators to determine if the General Deductions Taken and/or Benefit Deductions Taken field(s) have been manually overridden (U). If a field has been manually overridden, the paysheet update process does not override the field. If a field has not been manually overridden, the paysheet update process performs the override evaluation process to pick up any changes that may have occurred in Payroll Data, Benefit Deduction Processing Override, or Additional Pay.

Deduction Calculation Process

After the paysheet update process has determined which deduction codes to apply, the deduction calculation process uses the selections on the General Ded Code Override (general deduction code override) page to calculate deductions. The options that are selected for each individual deduction code are the final override for that code in the deduction calculation and no changes are made to the Deductions Taken field on the paysheet.
