Re: Deductions in Arrears
Check the Maximum Deduction limits (pay period, year, lifetime). If an employee is hitting the Max Per Pay Period, the amount over the max is considered an arrears amount. However, if they hit the Max Per Lifetime or Year, no arrears is accumulated. It's easy for the 'Max' amounts to creep up on you.
Another difference could be if an employee doesn't get a paycheck and the other one does. The arrears calculations can be different if mandatory isn't checked.
If the Collect When Possible checkbox isn't checked, the arrears will only be attempted on paychecks that include the deduction code in question.
Each employee's code could be set up the same, but the circumstances of their individual paycheck could make a difference.
Make sure the deduction is a fixed amount and not a %.
There's no real 'reconcile', you have a procedure to run if you have any mandatory deductions against an employee without a paycheck and you can enter an arrears transaction to record anything that was missed.
Nothing else comes to mind.
Kind regards,
