RRSP Deduction Setup & Pay Period Details Configuration

ISSUE 1: RRSP Deductions are currently configured under Employee Deductions as Overrides and need to be corrected to be configured properly as a Per Pay Amount. 

ISSUE 2: When configured under Non-Statutory Deductions Personal or Standard/FTE Based (not as an Override), customer reports the deduction is only occurring once a month. 

 

Steps to Resolve:

PAYROLL > BOARD > DEDUCTION CODES

**Ensure RRSP Code is defined and Status = Active**

 

PAYROLL > BOARD > DEDUCTION CODES MAINTENANCE

Configure Deduction Code = RRSP code

 

Deduction Code > View

**Confirm the Algorithm Code here**

 

PAYROLL > EMPLOYEE > NON-STATUTORY DEDUCTIONS

Enter EID > Search

Action Icon > View

**Note the current configuration for RRSP Deduction is as an override, while this works it is not considered best practice for proper configuration** 

 

 

PAYROLL > EMPLOYEE > NON-STATUTORY DEDUCTIONS

Enter EID > Search

**Note the current configuration for RRSP Deduction is as an override, while this works it is not considered best practice for proper configuration** 

 

Choose Personal Tab (According to Deduction Algorithm Code verified above) and configure the Per Pay Amount to be the same as the previous Deduction Override Amount

Verify the correct Liability Account > Remove Override Configuration > Save.  

**Note the RRSP Configuration is no longer defined as an Override, it is a Person Per Pay Amount**

Note: This configuration will now reference the Pay Period Details setup. 

 

PAYROLL > GROUP DATA > PAY PERIOD DETAILS

Choose EMP_GROUP and filter Code = Descending and see Deduction Code = *RRSP* 

**Note that Deduction Code = RRSP only exists for Model Name = 1**

 

Filter by Model Name = Descending

**Proof that this EMP_GROUP has Model Name = 2**

 

ISSUE 2 [SOLVED]: The reason the RRSP Deduction is only happening once a month is because it is only defined under Model Name =1 (likely the first pay of month), despite the EMP_GROUP using Model Names 1 and 2.  

FIX = Insert Deduction Code = RRSP record under Model Name 2 for the EMP_GROUP in question. 

 

Right Click > New Record

Configure identical record but using Model Name = 2 > Save

**Refresh and re-sort the module to confirm the creation of new record**

 

Rinse and repeat for any and all applicable EMP_GROUPS to ensure RRSP Deduction is configured for both Pay Models (assuming it’s necessary). 

IMPORTANT NOTE: If an EMP_GROUP has various Pay Models for Model Name 1 or 2. Ensure RRSP Deduction Code is created for both if necessary. 

 

PAYROLL > PAY RUN MENU > ENTITLEMENT

**Select EMP_GROUP > Submit** 

PAYROLL > PAY RUN MENU > GROUP AUTHORIZATION

**Select EMP_GROUP > Submit** 

PAYROLL > PAY RUN MENU > PAY RUN
