Deduction Fixed Rate

Instead of using a value or percentage deduction, some companies may use a fixed rate deduction rule for meals. In order to use this functionality, the Deduction Fixed Rate Table must be set up.

1. Expand the Expense menu.
2. Expand the Per Diem Setup menu.
3. Click on Deduction Fixed Rate.
4. Click on the Add Button
5. Enter the Effective Date, which is the date that this rate takes effect
6. Enter the Operating Unit that this rate pertains to. Leave this field blank if it applies to the entire company.
7. In the Breakout Type drop down, select which meal this rate is applicable to.
8. Enter the Per Diem Rate.
9. Enter the Deduction.
10. Click on the Save button.

Once the rates have been entered into the application, you can create deduction rules based on this table in the Deduction Rule set up.
