Setting Up PR Garnishment Groups

PR Garnishment Groups are used to manage various types of garnishments such as child support, federal tax levies, and state-related garnishments. These groups garnishments are calculated correctly during payroll processing, maintaining compliance with legal requirements and ensuring employees receive a minimum net pay.

Before you start

• Understanding of the specific garnishment requirements applicable to your organization.

Steps

1. Open thePR Garnishment Groupform.
2. Create a new garnishment group by entering a unique identifier and description.
3. Assign the appropriate deduction codes to the garnishment group in thePR Deductions Liabilitiessection.
4. List the deductions and earnings that apply to the garnishment group, ensuring they equate to the wages subject to minimum net pay.
5. Save the garnishment group setup.

Notes

• All deduction codes assigned to a garnishment group are accurate to avoid incorrect payroll calculations.
• Regularly review and update garnishment groups to comply with any changes in legal requirements.
