It helps payroll and back-office teams review deduction activity by check and employee, including agency, company, office, deduction reference, and deduction amount. This report is essential for: - **Payroll Teams:** reconciling deduction amounts by agency before and after payroll processing. - **Finance Teams:** reviewing deduction totals and validating downstream posting expectations. - **Operations and Compliance Staff:** auditing employee-level deduction records by period and agency. By consolidating deduction rows with employee identity, check details, and mailing address fields, this report supports quicker validation and exception follow-up. ## **Report Overview** | **Attribute** | **Details** | | --- | --- | | **Purpose** | Lists employee deduction records by agency for a selected period and filters. | | **Classification** | Payroll / Operational Report | | **Who Should Use This Report** | Payroll Teams, Finance Teams, Back-Office Operations, Compliance Staff | | **Business Problem Solved** | Reduces manual effort to trace deduction amounts by agency across employees and checks. | | **Run Frequency** | On-demand (typically per payroll cycle, period close, or audit request) | | **Related Reports** | Deduction Summary, Payment Deduction | ### **Business Value** | **Category** | **Description** | | --- | --- | | Agency-Level Visibility | Shows deduction activity by agency in one export-ready output, improving transparency. | | Faster Reconciliation | Provides check-level detail needed to verify deduction amounts and references quickly. | | Employee Traceability | Includes employee identifiers and address details to support issue resolution and correspondence workflows. | | Filtered Access Scope | Uses user-level access scope for company and office filters, keeping results relevant and secure. | | Audit Support | Captures the key deduction fields needed for internal reviews and period-end checks. | ### **Known Issues or Limitations** | **Issues** | **Description** | | --- | --- | | Agency name required in source data | Records without an agency name are excluded from the result. | | Date field selection changes output | Results depend on whether the user selects Check Date or Accounting Period Date. | | Address fields may be incomplete | If employee address data is missing or partial, address columns may appear blank or incomplete. | | Office and company filter behavior | Blank company/office/agency filter values are treated as “All”. | | SSN display format | SSN is returned as available in report data and may not always appear masked in all environments. | ### **Troubleshooting Guide** | **Issues** | **Problem Reason** | **Solution** | | --- | --- | --- | | No rows returned | Selected filters or date range do not match available deduction records. | Verify date range and filter selections; retry with broader filters. | | Expected agency missing | Records with blank agency values are excluded, or agency filter excludes it. | Confirm agency exists in source records and that the agency filter includes it. | | Employee address looks incomplete | Employee profile address fields are missing or partially filled. | Update employee address details, then rerun the report. | | Totals seem lower than expected | Date type or filter scope excludes some records. | Re-run with the alternate date type and validate company/office scope. | | Cannot find a specific employee | Employee has no matching deduction row in the selected period or filters. | Confirm check period and deduction reference, then rerun with wider criteria. | ### **FAQ** | **Questions** | **Answers** | | --- | --- | | What does this report list? | It lists employee deduction rows by agency with check, company, office, employee, and amount fields. | | Which date field does the report use? | It uses the date type selected by the user: Check Date or Accounting Period Date. | | Can I run this for all companies and offices? | Yes.
