The software can automatically calculate various pre- or post-tax deduction amounts for payroll checks when an employee record is set up with the appropriate deduction item information - including deductions for direct deposit, for the employee's contributions to 401(k) plans or to health or life insurance premiums, for a loan repayment, and so forth. Use the Deduction Items dialog to define global deduction items, which are available for any payroll client.

Choose Setup > System Configuration > Deduction Items.

After the initial setup of a global deduction item in the program, any changes you enter and save in the Deduction Items dialog will immediately update all employee records using that item, across all clients.
