How do I ensure that an employee's Medical Aid Dependants are included in the Medical Aid contribution calculation?

This feature is available on all PaySpace editions
Step 1 : Ensure that the medical aid dependant is added on the employee's Dependant screen and that the "is this a medical aid dependant?" checkbox is enabled.
Navigate > Employee > Basic Information > Dependants
The dependant will then be reflected on the Medical Aid component on the employee's Recurring Payroll Components screen.
Navigate > Employee > Payroll Processing > Recurring Payroll Components > Deductions

Important
If the dependant is not reflecting on the Dependants screen, they will not be included in the medical aid calculation.
