Define Rules for Limits

In this step you may set up rules for limits on deductions.

When you define limits for particular deductions later in this section, you may use these rules as well as fixed amounts.

Example

If you wished to be able to limit a deduction to no more than 5% of the total gross amount an employee received, you would set up a rule as follows:

Rule No Wage type Percent Processing indicator 0001 001 /101 Total gross amount 5.00 + Add

Requirements

The wage types you use in the rules that you define here must also have been set up for cumulation.

Activities

1. Assign one or more wage types to a rule
2. Specifiy the percentage of the wage type to be used in the limit
3. Indicate whether it should be added or subtracted.

Further Notes

When the payroll is processed, the limit is derived by calculating the percentage (defined in the rule) of these wage types as they appear in the payroll results.
