Direct Deposit Deduction Setup

Hello,

We have a few employees that would like to have a physical check in addition to their direct deposit. We have setup a new Deduction code (DRDEP) and linked it to direct deposit. We then added the deduction to a test employee and added an account as the instructions indicated. However, when running the test paybatch the employee still get all the pay in a check, no direct deposit, and no deduction code showing up on net pay.

Any ideas?

Thanks

David

RE: Direct Deposit Deduction Setup

Hi David,

I suggest to customers to NOT allow this situation unless absolutely necessary, like for HSA contributions. If you have the deduction linked properly, the employee will in fact get a check for the correct Net Pay, and the amount to be Direct Deposited will be correct in the ACH file, BUT the Bank Rec does not update properly with Checks that have deductions like this on them. The Net Pay of the Check will be included in the Direct Deposit total on the Bank Rec. However, if you do want to do this, here are a few things to verify: a) The deduction code is active; b) The beginning date on the deduction code is within or prior to the pay period dates you use on the Build Checks window; c) you are including the deduction on the Build Checks window; d) On the Direct Deposit Maintenance window for the employee, you have the Remainder of Net Line set to 0.
