Assigning required deductions

In Payroll, you can identify deductions as required deductions. You can assign these required deductions for existing employees on Employee (HR11.1), Employee Deduction (PR14.1), or Employee Deduction Speed Entry (PR15.2).

When you add an employee on Employee (HR11.1), the application creates all required deductions for which the employee meets the defined parameters.

Before you assign required deductions, you must attach required deduction codes to Deduction (PR05.1) and correctly define the required deduction code on Deduction Required Code (PR03.1). If you are using BSI TaxLocator, then this will not be necessary for U.S. taxes. See How Do I View and Modify Employee Tax Deductions?. Canada tax deductions can be assigned to the employee using required deduction codes.
