Payroll Check Calculation

When the payroll engine calculates an additional check with a check template that has Disburse to special account only enabled, the full net pay amount is disbursed to the employee's special direct deposit account.

If the employee doesn’tt have a special direct deposit account, the net pay is disbursed based on the employee profile settings unless the Disburse to reminder account only setting in the check template has been selected. In this case, the net pay is disbursed to the reminder account.
