Steps: Set Up and Process Withholding Orders (FRA)

Steps: Set Up and Process Withholding Orders (FRA)

Add gross and net salary elements to pay component groups contributing to the
FRA Taxable Net [FRA]
 pay accumulation.
Workday provides rules for processing these types of income withholding orders:
  • Administrative Seizure
  • Alimony Pension
  • Debt
Based on regulations for France, Workday:
  • Determines the amount to withhold from the employee’s disposable earnings.
  • Applies withholding limits and sets priorities for what to withhold.
  • Determines what to withhold for a worker with multiple orders when the total withholding amount exceeds the limit.
You can use the
Put Payroll France Withholding Order
 web service to mass load income withholding orders.
  1. Access the
    Edit Deduction
     or
    Edit Earning
     task for a pay component that contributes to disposable earnings for withholding orders.
    Workday uses the
    FRA Taxable Net [FRA]
     pay accumulation to determine disposable earnings for withholding orders. Only select earnings or deductions that need to be added or removed from the value of the
    FRA Taxable Net [FRA]
     pay accumulation.
    On the
    Non-Effective Dated
     tab, select the appropriate pay component group from the
    Groups
     prompt:
    • FRA Adds to Disposable Earnings [FRA]
    • FRA Subtracts from Disposable Earnings [FRA]
    Security:
    Set Up: Payroll (Calculations - Payroll Specific)
     domain in the Core Payroll functional area.
  4. Calculate payroll and review the withheld deduction amounts.
    See Steps: Process Payroll.
    Workday Payroll for France doesn't support pay inputs for withholding orders.
