Payroll Deduction Frequency

SOLVED

Our company has office personnel on a semi-monthly pay cycle, and field employees on a weekly pay cycle.  In both cases, the employee's benefit deductions only come out of the last check of each month. 

Is there a way to tell Sage in the employee setup (or elsewhere) so that these deductions pre-populate ONLY on the last check of each month?  I know it's a long shot but thought it would be worth asking.

Thanks!

    When you process payroll, you are prompted for "Calculation Frequencies."  "Check" is selected by default, but you could also manually check the "Monthly" box when processing the last payroll of the month. This will then process any pay, deduction or fringe that has a matching "Calculation Frequency" on the individual employee setup of their pays, deductions, or fringes.  For this to function properly, you would need to confirm that all pays, deductions or fringes with a "Monthly" calc frequency are to be taken only on that last check run of the month.
