Calculating the Writ and the Court Order Deductions

The calculation rule for both these deductions is base x percent where the base in the DISPOSABLE EARNINGS accumulator (NZL GROSS – NZL TAX) and the percentage is set at the payee level.

The court order deduction has generation control DED GC COURT ORDER. It uses DED FM PROC STATUS to check the value of DED FM VR PROC STATUS to ensure that the system only takes the deduction if the status of the court order is Approved. You enter the status on the Assign Garnishments NZL (GPNZ_GARN_DTLS) page and the array GPNZ_PROC_STATUS passes the status value to the variable.
