PR05

PR05.1 - Deduction

Use PR05.1 (Deduction) to define deductions, and how the system calculates
the deduction amount. You can define deductions for items subtracted from an
employee's pay such as federal withholding, state withholding, Social Security
and Medicare, insurance, and 401(k)s.

You can also define deductions for company-paid items such as federal and
state unemployment, Social Security and Medicare, and the company's portion of
insurance.

Deductions that affect an employee's gross pay and, optionally, company-paid
deductions appear on payments and ACH receipts created by PR160 (Payment
Print). All deductions, employee and company-paid, print on PR140 (Earnings
and Deductions Calculation).

    DEDCODE    - The primary file maintained by the program. If you change a
                 deduction, a flag is set so that the Employee Deduction file is
                 updated the next time you run PR140 (Earnings and Deductions
                 Calculation). You cannot delete a deduction that is attached to
                 a tax authority, benefit plan, employee, or one-time deduction.

    TAXIDEXMP  - When you delete a deduction with a tax status of Exempt, the
                 corresponding Pay or Deduction Exemption Code file records are
                 deleted.
