About Deduction Groups

Use Deduction Groups to create sets of deductions and then assign the grouped deductions to individual employees. For example, a group of Certified deductions — Unemployment, Retirement, and Disability — could be grouped together and then assigned to any employee who is added to that group.

Deductions can be added to more than one group, and employees can be members of more than one group.

Deduction groups are different from employee groups, which are used to assist in assigning leave types to employees.

Set up & use deduction groups

  1. Name the groups in Payroll Configuration.

  2. Add deductions to the groups in Manage Deductions.

  3. Add individual employees to groups in Manage Employees or add multiple employees to groups using the Mass Update feature.

  4. Create new deduction sets for employees you've added to groups in Deduction Assignment.
