How to "turn off" an employee deduction.

Scenario: The employee cancels his/her 401k contribution.

  1. Start the employee module; go to the earnings screens.
  2. Select the deductions tab.
  3. Select the deduction needing the change. In some cases there may be only one; in others, you may have several deductions for an employee.
  4. Click the MODIFY button.
  5. In the 0$% window, set it to zero.
  6. In the Amount window, set it to zero.
  7. Click the SAVE button.

The system will still attempt to calculate the employee's 401k but because the type and the amount have been set to zero, any possibility of generating a deduction is eliminated.
