Absence Deduction Cannot be Modified

Question: Why is it not possible to edit Deductions such as Absence deductions in the Pay details?


Answer: If the Absence deduction is set to a separate deduction, and that deduction is set to "Absence," when the timesheet is approved for payroll processing and there are days of absence, the payroll details will show that deduction. This deduction cannot be edited or deleted.

Go to Preferences -> Account -> Settings -> Look at Deduct Absence From Salary (Ticked)
