2. Leave Private Pay ("Family pays in full"), or tap Payroll Deduction.
3. Enter the amount withheld. Weekly schedules ask for the weekly amount; monthly and twice-a-month schedules ask for the full monthly amount. Tap Confirm.
4. The card now reads, for example, "[amount] withheld from the paycheck each month", and the total shows "After [amount] payroll deduction". Tap Change amount to edit it.
5. To stop the deduction, tap Private Pay.

Tips

• When scholarships cover the whole schedule, the card shows Scholarship ("Fully covered by scholarship") and there is nothing to choose.
• Payroll deductions are tracked for reconciliation like scholarships. See Reconcile scholarships, vouchers and payroll deductions.

Troubleshooting

• "Payroll deduction too large". The deduction can't exceed the schedule total.
