Example: Enable a Voluntary Deduction for Self Service

This example illustrates how to enable a deduction for election through employee self-service.

You want to enable workers to make donations to Global Charity twice a year.

Create the deduction for the charitable contribution named My Charity.

Create a custom worktag type called Giving Cause.

Security: Set Up: Payroll
domain in Core Payroll functional area.

Access the

Maintain Voluntary Deduction Configurations

task.

From the

Country

prompt, select United States of America
.

Click

Add 2 rows and enter these settings for the 2 election periods:

Deduction	Worktag Type	Help Text	Earliest Visible Date	Latest Visible Date	Earliest Take Effect Date	Latest Take Effect Date	Value Type	Calculation	Maximum
My Charity	Giving Cause	Enter a deduction by January 31.	January 1 of current year	January 31 of current year	February 1 of current year	June 30 of current year	Percent	Base (unprorated)	0.1
My Charity	Giving Cause	Enter a deduction by July 31.	July 1 of current year	July 31 of current year	August 1 of current year	December 31 of current year	Percent	Base (unprorated)	0.1

Workers can now use the

Workday processes the deduction as an adjustment on the worker's pay result.

Voluntary Deductions

report for workers:

Configure the Self-Service: Payroll (My Voluntary Deductions)
security policy in the Core Payroll functional area.

Add the

Voluntary Deductions

report to the workers'

Pay

dashboard menu. Also add it to the

Pay

profile group of the worker profile.
