Deduction Schedule

Enter up to six alphanumeric characters to uniquely identify each deduction schedule in the database.

Description

Enter up to 30 alphanumeric characters to describe the purpose of the deduction schedule code.

Paycheck Type

Select radio buttons in this group box to control whether this deduction schedule will be a "Turn-off" schedule (Regular) or a "Turn-on" (Bonus) schedule, as discussed below.

Regular

Deductions are normally taken for regular paychecks. Therefore, if you do not want to take all deductions associated with regular paychecks, select the Regular radio button and enter deduction codes in the table window. This will set up a "Turn-off" schedule, in which none of the selected deductions are taken from a regular paycheck.

Bonus 

Deductions are normally not taken for bonus paychecks. Therefore, if you want to take deductions not usually associated with bonus paychecks, select the Bonus radio button and enter deduction codes in the table window. This will set up a "Turn-on" schedule, in which the selected deductions are taken from a bonus paycheck.
