Creating a Deduction Set — Direct Deposit tab

Use this tab to enter the bank information used for direct deposit of the employee's paychecks.

See About Direct Deposit for more complete information.

Direct deposit information can only be added, modified, or deleted if the deduction set is in the New state.
Note: Normally a new set is created for editing when a set is approved. But if there isn't a new set, make a copy of the current deduction set in order to add or make changes to the deductions or benefits.
