To determine the deduction amount:Select the rules that determine the amount of a deduction in the Amount tabbed region of the Deduction window.
If you want the amounts to come from a user table (amount rule Payroll Table), you must create the user table first.
If the payroll table uses a row type other than the predefined types Age Range, Salary Range or Job Class, you must set up the row type first.
See: Setting Up Row Types for Payroll Tables
To determine the deduction amount:Choose the Amount tabbed region.
Select Flat Amount, % Earnings, or Payroll Table as the amount rule. You cannot select Payroll Table for some categories of pre-tax deduction.
Note: You cannot select the rule Benefits Table but it may display for some deductions created in earlier versions of the application. If you want to enter values in the Benefits Table for a new deduction, you must configure it, see: Configuring Components for Health Care Benefit Plans. This is for Basic Benefits, only.
If the amount rule is Payroll Table, select in the Payroll Table region the name and row type of the table. Also, select the name of the table column in which the deduction formula should look for the deduction amounts.
Note: The payroll table rows may have a row type other than Age Range, Salary Range or Job Class. In this case, after setting up this deduction you must modify its generated formula to reference the row type and the appropriate database item. The formula has the name of the deduction with the words PAYROLL_TABLE added.
