- Includes only benefit-related deduction changes. It will not include employee demographic changes.
- Does not include employer cost for benefits (i.e. if you have a 100% employer-paid benefit, this will not be included).
How the report works
The deduction report includes client, employee and benefit identifying information along with deduction changes.
Here are the details on the columns and information included in the report download:
- Action
- Note: This will always appear as “U” based on Paycor upload specifications.
- Client ID
- Based on what is entered when you download the report
- Each employee’s unique identifying number (Paycor Employee Number).
- Based on the Employee ID number on the employee’s profile in Maxwell
- Last name
- Based on the Employee’s last name that appears on the employee’s profile in Maxwell.
- Deduction code
- Will be based on each of the products that you have entered deduction codes for under the Payroll Codes section in Maxwell Health. You should ensure these match the deduction codes from your Paycor portal. (More detail on entering Payroll Codes >>)
- Benefit effective start date
- Benefit effective end date
- Deduction amount (Effective date amounts)
- This is the employee benefit deduction amount for any products set up in both your Paycor and Maxwell Health portals that have a deduction update. (This would be the employee cost).
Items to keep in mind
- Deleting a benefit will not display as a change as that should only be done in the case where there’s been a mistake.
- Benefits that are waived for the first time (i.e. if a new hire waives medical coverage) or that have a $0 deduction will not be displayed as those do not affect payroll.
- Benefits that naturally expire because their benefit end date passes will not display as terminations.
- Only deduction information for newly effective or updated enrollments within a date range will appear. If your employees have any pending elections, deductions and costs will not be included in this view until those elections have been approved by the administrator.
