How do I set up standard components?
Standard components are permanent — once checked, they apply to every payroll run until you manually uncheck them.
Layout

- Under STANDARD COMPONENTS, you will see three tables: Earnings, Deductions, and Accumulators
- Check the box next to each component that applies to the employee
