How do I stop a deduction on a Limit Cycle (or was previously on a Limit Cycle) and return it to a regular status?

How do I stop a deduction on a Limit Cycle (or was previously on a Limit Cycle) and return it to a regular status?

A limit cycle transaction is used as an alternative to setting up a goal for an employee deduction.


If a deduction has been placed (or was previously placed) on a Limit Cycle, it may need to return to being used as a regular deduction.

Once placed on a Limit Cycle, the deduction will not be available for use as a conventional deduction unless you make certain cycle changes to remove it from the Limit Cycle Status.


NOTE: When a Limit Cycle is complete – meaning that it ran for the allotted number of cycles and stopped – the system automatically sets the Deduction to “Inactive”. To reuse the deduction code again you would also need to set it to “Active” once more.

The following is the Cycle Change to remove the deduction from the Limit Cycle Status

Once these two Cycle Changes are done, you can use the deduction like you would any deduction, whether it is being used as a Goal or simply a regular deduction etc.
