Correcting Amounts Report : RDA Systems Inc

What this Process does

Provides a report showing amounts set in the Correcting Amount field on the employee's deduction(s); located on the Deduction Master Maintain Screen below Adjustment/Additional Amount.
The Correcting Amount field is recommended to be used for one-time corrections to employee deductions.
Example of when this field would be used, is when the payroll department receives late notice of a change to a deduction or of a new deduction. The normal per pay period amount would be set as usual on either the Deduction Description ID or in the Adjustment/Additional Amount field on the employee's deduction, and the correcting amount needed to catch the employee's deduction up to what it should be, would be entered in the Correcting Amount field.
Remarks can be entered on the employee's deduction, under the tab labeled Remarks, which will appear on the Correcting Amounts Report.
When the payroll is computed, amounts established by the Deduction Description ID, plus amounts in the Adjustment/Additional Amount field, plus amounts entered in the Correcting Amount field will all sum together.
For Enterprise customers, or those with bundle PR24 Correcting Amounts in Payroll, a separate process is available to set Correcting Amounts in mass, as well as zeroing out the amounts in the Correcting Amount field in mass.

The Payroll GSV for Display Correcting Amount must be on/true.
An amount must exist in the Correcting Amount field, for at least one employee, or no report will be produced.

HR → Payroll → Start tab → Correcting Amounts Report
Will display any employees with deductions that have a Correcting Amount; the report sorts by Active Deductions, then Inactive Deductions and displays whether the employee is Current or not; only active deductions for current employees will be computed in the payroll process.
Verify that refunds are negative amounts and amounts to be deducted are positive amounts.
Keep in mind that the correcting amounts will sum together with other amounts set on the deduction(s); therefore, it is critical for the Deduction Register to be reviewed carefully to ensure that the deductions computed accurately.
Remarks can be entered on the employee's deduction to indicate why a correcting amount was needed and/or when the correcting amount should be removed.
Any correcting amounts which were processed in a previous payroll, or otherwise, should be removed, can be done so individually be accessing the employee's deduction and zeroing out the Correcting Amount field. (See below for removing in mass)

The section below is for Enterprise customers, or those with bundle PR24 Correcting Amounts in Payroll

Finish tab (or HR → Payroll → Maintenance → Correcting Amounts) → Zero Deduction Correcting Amts
Use this process to remove amounts in mass from the Correcting Amount field in the employee's deduction master after the payroll is complete, so to not duplicate the refund/withholding amount on future payrolls.
Range on Deduction Description ID that was corrected to remove Correcting Amounts on that employee deduction; If wanting to remove Correcting Amounts from all employee deductions, do not range on Deduction Description.
No report will generate; however, amounts will be zeroed out based on ranges set.
To verify all amounts have been zeroed and/or only the desired deductions have been zeroed and other correcting amounts remain, go to HR → Payroll → Maintenance → Correcting Amounts → Report of Correcting Amounts
Verify that there are no correcting amounts on this report which should have been cleared out.
No report will display if no correcting amounts exist.
