An employee, ID number 001 Has a regular Credit Union deduction(deducted from the employees pay every cycle) of $500.00. This deduction amount needs to be increased to$550.00. A line is entered in the Cycle changes window to increase this deduction to the amount stated ie. a cycle entry is made for that deduction with 550.00 entered in the amount feild. Upon processing, it is realised that the deduction is still being processed at $500.00
SOLUTION:
When entering the line in the cycle changes window to edit this deduction, the payroll user must ensure that the COST CENTER used for this cycle to process the deduction is exacly the same as what was initially used for this deduction. If the payroll user is unsure of the cost center used, she can print the Deductions By Cost Center report (Payroll>>Reports>>Reports>>Deduction Reports>>By Cost Center). Once the correct cost center is known for the deduction, the payroll user must now enter the cycle entry using this cost center and the new amount in the amount field. A different cost center would result in the deduction amount remaining unchanged.
