-When calculating a midpoint salary, if the district has selected the **Amount** option in the **Distributions Built by Amt or %** field of the HR Options table, the system requires that a distribution amount be greater than zero and is not saved until an amount is entered for a new employee or an employee with a salary change. Since the system is not saved with zero amounts the user has to enter an amount manually. When a manual amount is entered into the distribution amount and contract balance and the user clicks **Calculate**, the amounts are not changed or updated. Since midpoint has no steps, the assumption is that the employee remains at that salary level without regard to whether the employee is within minimum or maximum ranges.\\  \\  When calculating a midpoint salary, if the district has selected the **Percentage** option in the **Distributions Built by Amt or %** field of the HR Options table, the program saves zero as an amount in distribution and contract balance allowing the percent to equal 100%.
