PR14


PR14.1 - Employee Deduction



Use Employee Deduction (PR14.1) to assign a deduction to an employee
and to maintain all deductions that apply to a specific employee.



**Processing Effect

When you assign to an employee, a pretax deduction that has an after-tax
deduction linked to it, the linked after-tax deduction is automatically
created
for the employee.
Nine Deduction Cycles fields let you specify the cycles in which the
system takes the deduction.
Parameters defined for the deduction in PR05.1 (Deduction) default if
any of the following fields are left blank: Amount -or- Percent, Priority,
Arrears, Deduction Cycles, Begin Date, End Date, Monthly Limit, and Payment
Limit.
Values you define for a specific employee deduction override parameters
defined for the deduction.



**More Information

Use PR26.1 (Employee Garnishment) to assign garnishment deductions to
an employee. Garnishment deductions are defined by selecting Yes in the
Garnishment
field of PR05.1 (Deduction). Garnishments are displayed but not maintained
here.

PR14.2 - IRS Lock-In Withholding

Use IRS Lock-In Withholding (PR14.2) to enter and maintain a 'lock' to the
withholding level for Federal withholding tax for U.S. employees for whom the
employer has received a "lock-in letter" from the IRS.  Maintenance on
employee Additional Tax Fields should be performed using Employee U.S. Taxes
(PR13.1) prior to enabling the lock-in on the Federal withholding tax
deduction.

Important:
Lock-in values are not effective dated, so do not enter lock-in values in
advance of when they are to take effect. Instead, you will need to wait for
the appropriate pay cycle to be reached before entering the lock-in values.

Note:
Federal withholding tax means the U.S. tax deduction being 'locked' is
defined as Tax Category 01, and the Tax Authority tied to the deduction is
defined as Authority Type FD.

Marital Status and Exempt Number can be maintained using IRS Lock-In
Withholding (PR14.2). Changes entered on this screen for these fields
overwrite any employee-elected amounts on PR13.1.  Once the IRS-mandated
withholding levels are 'locked' using the "Lock-In" field, no changes in
withholding levels (marital status, exemptions, additional amounts, etc) via
Employee U.S. Taxes (PR13.1), Employee Self Service, or Employee Deduction
Master Load (PR514) are allowed to any of these fields.

Values in the Additional Tax Fields populated via Employee Self Service,
Employee U.S. Taxes (PR13.1) Employee Deduction Master Load (PR514) are
displayed on this form to provide visibility of  previously existing overrides
for the employee.  Enabling the 'lock' does not disable or otherwise negate
the functionality of these fields.
