How Personal Calculation Card Entries Fit Together
Personal payroll calculation cards capture information specific to a particular payroll relationship. Payroll runs use this information to calculate earnings and deductions.
Actions such as hiring a person or loading data may create some cards automatically. Otherwise, you can create the card manually. You can also add components to cards and enter calculation values, which may override default values. Additionally, you can associate the card with a tax reporting unit (TRU).
To view and manage calculation cards, use the Calculation Cards task from the Payroll section.

For example, if an employee qualifies for a fixed monthly tax reduction amount, you enter the amount as an enterable value on the employee's personal calculation card.
