How to Apply Second Garnishment to Employee
ISSUE: Board can not apply a second Garnishment to the same Employee as they are receiving the following Error.
FIX: Create a second 'GARN2' Deduction Code so that a second Garnishment can be added to the Employee without the system considering it a duplicate.
The issue is that the system will not allow the same garnishment code twice, on the same employee, same group and within the same date range.
Use Garnishment2 Code as a workaround to apply two on a single employee.
