Payroll > Payroll Processing > Deduction Checks > Transaction Maintenance
This tab is used to modify individual deduction transactions. The grid on the Transaction Maintenance tab is populated when Create on the Create Transactions tab is selected. You can change the deduction transaction for an individual or a group of codes from this tab. The Transaction Maintenance tab allows you to modify transactions before creating deduction checks and posting to the general ledger. Transactions that are disabled have already had checks issued and cannot be updated.
Note: When performing a check void or check issue, if deduction checks have already been extracted for the pay date, transactions are inserted into the deduction liability check table for the pay date. See Check Void and check Issue for more information.
If a deduction check has already been posted for the pay date and is voided using the check void process in Finance, then transactions are inserted into the transaction maintenance table in Payroll for the pay date. You can make changes and re-issue the check. Or, if a replacement check is not necessary, you can delete the transactions from the transaction maintenance table in Payroll.
