DEDUCTIONS

Use this subtask to set up deductions for the union/local/GLC combination. As soon as you enter the deduction code, the default values from the Manage Deductions screen populate the fields. The fields can remain as the defaults, or you can change them.

Deduction Name

The deduction description defaults into this field when you enter the Deduction code.

Method

The deduction method selected in the Method field on the Manage Deductions screen defaults in when you enter the Deduction code.

If the Method selected is ADDGRS, PCTGRS, or PCTREG, the percentage defaults from the Rate % field on the Payroll Deductions and Contributions screen. If any other method is selected, the amount defaults from the Amount field on the Manage Deductions screen. However, you can change this field, if necessary.
