Specifying Deduction Overrides for Additional Pay on a Separate Check
Deduction override processing applies only to additional pay that is paid on a separate check. The Create Paysheet process and the Pay Calculation process first determine whether the additional pay is to be paid on a separate check, then proceeds as follows:
-
Not a separate check.
If the additional pay is not to be paid on a separate check, then there is no override to the paysheet as the deductions taken value for additional pay follows the value selected for the regular pay line.
-
Separate check.
If the additional pay is to be paid on a separate check, then the deductions taken value on the Create Additional Pay component overrides the appropriate paysheet deductions taken value (either the original Pay Calendar default or overrides from Payroll Data and/or Benefit Deduction Processing Override) for that payline only.
Employees with Multiple Additional Pays
In the case of employees with multiple additional pays with the same separate check number and varying deductions taken values, the deductions taken value used for the paysheet is the deductions taken value from the additional pay with the lowest additional pay sequence number with the same separate check number.
For example, an employee's additional pay data is represented in the following table:
| Additional Pay Sequence Number | Separate Check Number | General Deduction Taken | Benefit Deduction Taken |
|---|---|---|---|
|
1 |
1 |
Subset (ABC) |
NoOverride |
|
2 |
1 |
None |
NoOverride |
For this employee's separate check number one, the general deductions taken value on the paysheet is Subset and the general deduction subset ID is ABC. The benefit deductions taken value is as specified on the Pay Calendar table.
