Field Description - Manual Check Flag

The Manual Check Flag is a field the controls entering manual checks during Check Entry.  Select the Manual Check Flag in the Totals Area when you want to override the standard deductions or scheduled deductions.  The Manual Check Flag locks in your changes, preventing the automatic calculations from replacing your manual deduction amounts.

Notes:

• For more information, refer to the topic Advanced Feature - Entering Manual Checks.

• If you select the Manual Check Flag, the program still automatically calculates the Medicare FICA Withholding Amount and the Regular FICA Withholding Amount.

• If you select the Manual Check Flag and change a scheduled deduction that is FICA exempt (determined by the Deduction Exemptions), the program automatically recalculates the appropriate FICA withholding amounts and the Net Pay.

• To reset all of the deductions back to the automatically calculated amounts, position the cursor over any of the totals fields, right-click to display the shortcut menu, and then click Recalculate Deductions from Gross.

• When you finish maintaining the check by clicking Done (or DEL ALL), the Manual Check Flag automatically resets itself to the de-selected setting.
