We have a problem with a deduction not being taken for one particular Employee. The deduction is set up as sheltered from all taxes. It is for a fixed amount, based on all paycodes for a weekly frequency. The Transaction Required is not marked for the deduction. It works for every Employee except one. The only thing that is different about this particular Employee is that his wages are not subject to FICA taxes.
When we run a payroll, all deductions are being included. This particular deduction shows up on the Build Check and Precheck reports for the Employee but when checks are Calculated it is not included and is not deducted from his paycheck. The only way we can get it to be taken is if we mark Transaction required and enter a transaction for that deduction code.
I did some testing and found that if we mark his Paycode as subject to FICA the deduction IS included and comes out of his paycheck. Is this working as designed? If a Paycode is sheltered from a certain type of tax and a deduction is also sheltered, the deduction will not be taken automatically? Thank you in advance for your assistance!
