Override Calculated Payroll Contribution Amounts

During payroll processing, you can override any automatically calculated contribution amount. To do this, you override the contribution amounts on the Employee Review dialog box. You can override either a zero amount or a calculated amount.

To override calculated contribution amounts:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Payroll > Payroll Payments.
  2. On the Payroll Payments form, do one of the following:
    • In the Payment run search, select a payment run with a status of Selecting Manual or Selecting Auto.
    • Click + New Payment Run. Complete the form to create a new payment run.
  3. In the Employee Pay Details grid, select the Include in Run check box for employees that you want to include in the payroll payment run.
    This selection process applies only for manual process type payment runs. Vantagepoint automatically saves changes that you make on the form.
  4. Hover over the employee name for which you want to view employee information and at the end of the row, do one of the following:
    • Click and select Edit Details.
    • Click .
  5. In the Contributions grid of the Employee Review dialog box, select the Override check box for each applicable contribution amount line and enter the amount set to be contributed for the current run under the Current column.
  6. Click OK to close the dialog box.
    Repeat steps 4 and 5 for all employees for whom you want to specify contribution amounts.

Next Step: On the Actions bar of the Employee Payment Selection page of the Payroll Payments form, click Print Drafts to review the Draft Payroll Journal prior to processing to make sure that your changes are reflected.
