This article will cover how to add and manage multiple bank accounts for worker direct deposit to be distributed between.
1. Navigate to your Payroll app > Worker List > Select the desired Worker > Profile tab > Pay Distributions card > Edit.
2. Once you have opened the Pay Distributions Card, select the button to Add split pay.
3. This can be done if there is already an existing bank account in the system or if you are adding multiple new bank accounts. There can be up to three worker bank accounts used for pay split.
4. You can split based on percentages(%) or fixed dollar amount ($).
The percentage split is based on net income (or take-home pay), not gross income.
The account listed last will receive the remainder, if applicable.
5. Click Save.
Things to keep in mind:
Worker direct deposit can be split between up to three bank accounts.
When payments are split between two to three bank accounts, if the worker's net pay fluctuates, the bank account listed for Pay first amount to will always be funded first.
Paper check payments cannot be split, split payments can only be made with direct deposit.
If one bank account on file results in a bank error, the fixed amount or percentage of pay to be distributed to other accounts will still be deposited. The bank error will only affect one specific bank account.
The paystub view will not change even if a worker's direct deposit is distributed to multiple bank accounts, this information will not appear on the worker's paystub.
Workers and employers cannot delete a bank account, they will need to contact support to delete the account on their behalf. They can remove an account from the pay split.
