An employee's EA Form may encounter an issue where a custom pay item is either:


a) Not reflected in the EA Form, or

b) Appears in the incorrect section of the EA Form.


If you find yourself in this situation, it is likely due to an inaccurate EA Form mapping for the custom pay item. 


It's important to note that configurations for default pay items are pre-set and should not pose issues; however, custom pay items require precise configuration to ensure accurate representation in the EA Form. Rest assured that addressing this mapping accurately will resolve the discrepancy.
