Manage deduction categories

Available for the following Payroll plans: Essentials, Standard, Premium
A payroll deduction occurs when an employer removes funds from an employee's pay before they receive their pay cheque. 

In Singapore, the payroll platform's default setup for a new business includes the five basic deduction categories for self-help groups (SHGs), such as Chinese Development Assistance Council (CDAC) Fund, and Eurasian Community Fund (ECF).

The Deduction Categories feature allows you to create a new deduction category and specify details such as the name, external ID, and classification. You can also use this feature to edit any previously entered information and delete a record that is no longer required.
