Deduction Processing Order

Overview

If there are multiple pre-tax or post-tax deductions in a pay, they will apply based on the processing order that is assigned.

The processing order applies regardless of whether a Protected Earnings limit is configured for a deduction or not.

Pre-tax deductions will be applied first, regardless of the processing order that you set.

Set the Processing Order

To set the processing order:

1. Go to Config > Payroll > Deductions.

2. Click Re-order Deductions. If you have multiple regions enabled in your portal, you’ll need to select which region you would like to reorder.

3. Click and drag the deductions into the order they should be processed.

4. Click Save.
