Note: PeopleSoft Global Payroll for United States delivers and maintains state garnishment rules for child support, federal tax levy, state tax levy, student loan, AWG, and creditor garnishments; however, you can modify the accumulators that hold disposable earnings, or create new accumulators. If you create new disposable earnings accumulators, you will need to update the state garnishment rules to incorporate these accumulators.
