This tab is used to establish and maintain deduction codes for your district. There are 21 predefined, abbreviated deduction codes that cannot be edited, but you can assign specific deductions to any of these abbreviated codes.

The two-character abbreviated code for the deduction is used when the calculations are run and when determining the appropriate object code for the deduction liability during the create general journal process. You must select from the standard list of abbreviated codes. If you do not use one of these options, the system will not accept the entry.

The short description is the description printed on the variable check stub and on the wage and earnings statement. It can be edited to reflect a specific deduction or company (e.g., LI - HMO Extra Life). The specific object code (e.g., 2153) assigned to each abbreviated code is combined with an organization code equal to the number in the Deduction Code field. This is true for all deductions except income tax which is always 2151.000.

The long description is the description printed on the deduction register. The long description is used for identification of the deduction on the page and can be used when printing payroll deduction checks through the system.
