Payroll Deduction Workflow
The Payroll Deduction Workflow allows administrators to process permit payments by assigning the transaction cost directly to a user's internal payroll account. Its primary purpose is to seamlessly facilitate staff and employee parking purchases by logging the transaction for deferred collection through your organization's payroll system. This article is intended for OPS-COM administrators.
Setup and Configuration

Verify that the Payroll Deduction payment type is enabled for the specific user groups (e.g., Staff or Faculty) permitted to use this feature.
