Re: Payroll Question

Many error messages appear in the message table once for the first
employee in the company/paygroup with that error message, but not for
all.

An example of this would be if you had a deduction that is not defined
to the benefit program.  Since that type of error could potentially
affect thousands of employees, you are only informed of the error
the first time it occurs.
