Symptoms

Unable to create a General Deduction and a Pension Plan Deduction to Same Vendor.  It fails to send one out of the two to Accounts Payable

We have an existing Deduction tied to a Pension Plan and Vendor.  We now need to have employees who are in Arrears make payments, so we set up a General Deduction Code. I was unable to create the General Deduction because the HCM Class = General Provider ( Main Menu>Suppliers>Supplier Information>Add/Update>Supplier) . So I asked our Finance Dept to update the HCM Class to General Deduction. Once they did that, I was able to create a General Deduction and tie it to the same vendor. Now BOTH General Deduction and Deduction have same vendor.

The General Deduction was tied to the employees in arrears. However, in the last 2 payrolls the Deductions tied to the Ben Plan 70 have not gone through our AP Extract and not sent to the vendor. 

STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced with the following steps:
1. Vendor ID was tied to General Provider for Pension Deduction
2. Created a General Deduction for the arrears and changed the Vendor ID that was tied to Pension to HCM Class = General Deduction
3. Run AP Voucher Post and the Pension Deduction is not being sent to AP
