Symptoms

A salary employee is out of leave but still receives 48 hours of pay each pay period. Each pay period 48 negative hours are entered to accomplish this. This employee also has a large amount of additional tax withheld so there is not enough pay to cover all deductions. When there is not enough pay for deductions, and it is a pay period that crosses months, and the negative hours in one month are greater than the positive hours, the system is calculating a refund for deductions. No negative deduction amount should be created.

Step to duplicate:
1. From P0801 for a salaried employee add a large amount of additional tax withheld for State and Federal.
2. From P051121 add time cards that cross months, and the negative hours in one month are greater than the positive hours.
3. From P059116 Add some deductions DBAs with arrearage method = F and attach to the employee.
4. From P07210 run pre-payroll for the employee, notice the DBAs show as negative amounts.
