Override Withholding Order Priority (AUS)

Override Withholding Order Priority (AUS)

Record multiple withholding orders for a worker.
When a worker has multiple withholding orders, Workday assigns a processing priority to each order, based on the rules of the issuing agencies. Workday delivers this priority:
  • 200 - Section 72A Orders.
  • 300 - Child Support.
  • 400 - Court Orders.
If multiple withholding orders have the same priority, the
Order Received Date
 determines the priority, with older orders having priority over newer ones.
You can override the default priority order assigned to any order type.
You can view the processing priorities for a worker's withholding orders on the
Withholding Orders for Worker
 report.
  1. Access the
    Withholding Orders for Worker
     report.
  2. Select
    Withholding Order > Override Priority
     from the related actions menu of a withholding order. The
    Override Withholding Order
     task displays.
  3. Enter a number in the
    Priority Override
     field to replace the
    Priority Default.
     A lower number indicates a higher priority.
    When you override the withholding order priority, Workday doesn't update the priority order when you terminate a withholding order.
You can access the
Withholding Orders for Worker
 report to view all of a worker's withholding orders and the priority of them.
