Definition
This infotype stores garnishment details of the employee.
Use
The infotype is used when a court order decides that an employee has to pay debts. The typically garnishments are child support, unpaid taxes and so on. "Finansstyrelsen" handles all garnishments based on the court order.
Structure
Garnishments DK
The details about the garnishment are decided by the court order. The details are then passed on to the "Finansstyrelsen", which handles the whole management of the payment. This includes the communication with the company as well as the receiver of the garnishment.
The only information which the company is given is the garnishment number as well as the explanation.
The company does not know the priority of the garnishment nor the beginning balance if it is more than kr. 10.000. "Finansstyrelsen" handles and decides the priority if the employee has more garnishments to pay.
Deduction
"Finansstyrelsen" informs the company about the percentage which must be deducted from the monthly gross salary of the employee. The percentage which is deducted is based on the court order.
Payee
The "Finansstyrelsen" receives the monthly deduction through PBS and transfer the amount to the actual receiver of the garnishment.
The Payee information is obsolete since the legal change of September 1998. The garnishment deduction is automatically transferred to "Finansstyrelsen" by PBS.
