Include or Exclude Deductions for All

Use the Include/Exclude Deductions feature to exclude or include a deduction for all employees on a payroll register, including the direct deposit deduction for both primary & non-primary jobs. This feature can be used only on New payroll registers.

About excluding the direct deposit deduction

You can exclude both primary and non-primary direct deposit deductions on a payroll register. The non-primary direct deposit designates a fixed amount or percentage that is sent to one bank account; the primary direct deposit designates the remaining portion to be sent to another bank account.

The Direct Deposit - non-primary only selection in the Deduction Selector popup represents all non-primary direct deposits that the employee has — even if there are more than one for the same employee.

If you're excluding the primary direct deposit, but not the non-primary one, there won't be a direct deposit entry in the Check Printing dialog, but there will be a record in the Direct Deposit Data Export. REMEMBER: Run the direct deposit export and send it to the bank. The employee will also get a physical paycheck for the amount of the primary direct deposit.

You can include or exclude direct deposit for an entire register and then override that option for an individual employee using the Applied Deductions dialog.
