Before processing court orders, you can add the earnings and deductions that you created to the pay component groups (PCGs) that Workday uses to identify attachable income. Workday determines which PCGs to resolve during payroll processing based on the rules for the order type.
Attachable income is called arrestable income in Scotland.
You don't need to define statutory deductions or PCGs for national taxes. Workday provides these definitions and automatically excludes them from attachable income calculations. For an overview of the information that Workday maintains, run the
