Change default addition or deduction amount for all employees

Updated over 2 months ago

You will first need to establish how the Addition or Deduction value has been created. The value may have been included in either one of the following places:

  • In the Addition or Deduction maintenance setup

  • In a Pay Class

  • In the employees addition/deductions details screen.

  1. To view ALL employees who have this Addition/Deduction code attached go to MicrOpay Common, IQ and find a report called IQB-Emp001 - Payroll Employee Addition/Deduction List (Report).

  2. Use the filters under the column Add/Ded Code to select just that one code. You can also review the Additions/Deductions Report in MicrOpay in Payroll, Reports, End of Pay, Additions and Deductions Report and select the Addition or Deduction code to review who will be affected with the change in value for this financial year. Use the drop down next to the Additions and Deductions field to select just the code you are changing.

  3. Then check the Addition/Deduction code set up in Payroll, Maintenance, Employees, Employees and select an Employee who has the Addition/Deduction attached and check if the Employee is attached to a Pay Class in their Rate Details screen.

  4. If the Employee is attached to a Pay Class the Addition/Deduction code the value will need to be changed in Payroll, Maintenance, Rates, Pay Classes on the Additions/Deductions Tab.

  5. If this Addition/Deduction is also used for other Employees who are attached either to another Pay Class or the values come from the Default in the Addition/Deductions setup you will need to check each one.

  6. If the Employees are not attached to a Pay Class or the value is the same for all Employees you can go to Payroll, Maintenance, General, Additions and Deductions and Edit the Addition/Deduction code and update the Amount and OK to save.

  7. A message will appear that it will update the Employees Details if the Use Register field has been selected as the default in the Employees details.

  8. If the value has been manually attached to employees using the same code but the value for groups of employees were different then you will need to update each employee individually in their Addition/Deductions screen.
