You can only have 1 vendor per attachment of earnings. So if you have multiple employees with DWP deductions, you would need to set up a DWP vendor for each attachment of earnings with a number and increment +1 for each set up. E.g DWP1, DWP2, DWP3 etc. |
Setting up an Attachment of Earnings Pay Component Sub Type
There is no Attachment of Earnings pay component sub type as defualt in the bundle so this will need to be created before you can create the pay component on the employee record.
Do do this you will need to:
- Navigate to Payroll Administration > Payroll Setup > Pay Component Sub Types > New
- Give the Pay Component Sub Type a name e.g. Attachment of Earnings
- Select the Pay Component Type = Deduction
- Pay Component Category = Deduction
- Have "Show in Pay Components" checked
- Payslip Group - where you want the payslip details to show on the PDF e.g. Other Deductions
- Select the Percent Types you wish to be available if you are going to be using the percentage function e.g Gross Pay
- Select the Jurisdictions you want this available in = UK
- Set a Payment Summary Location (this is required as a mandatory field but is not referenced for UK payrolls)
- Save

If you do want to create this deduction as a percentage follow the above steps up to step 4 and then:
- The Rate is set at any rate (0 or 1 for example as this will not matter and it will grey out)
- Enter the Start Date as the date you want the deduction to start
- Tick "Is Percentage"
- Select how this will be calculated - for example if this is a percentage of the gross salary
- Enter the percentage
- The Range Amount will be the total amount to be repaid - the Attachment of Earnings will stop when the range balance is 0
