This deduction is a specialized deduction used to accumulate employees' earnings and benefits (including EI Rebate Benefits) for the calculation of an Employer paid deduction.

This deduction must be defined as a 'Benefit'. The deduction will be omitted when it is not a 'Benefit'.

Unlike all other deductions that calculate on other deduction values, it does not have to be added to the User Specific Parameters Profile. It is the last deduction calculated, therefore the deduction number assigned to it does not have to follow the other deduction numbers it is calculating on.
