How do you add a third garnishment

We can set up the third garnishment as Other Deduction, @CR21. I'll ensure it is added correctly by providing a detailed guide below.

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), we can add two garnishment items for your employee. When an employee has three or more garnishment items, we can add them as a deduction.

Here's how:

1. Go to the Payroll menu and choose Employees.
2. Select your employee.
3. From Deductions & contributions, select Start or Edit.
4. From the Deduction/contribution ▼ dropdown, select + Add deduction/contribution.
5. Choose Other Deduction from Deduction/contribution type.
6. From Type, select Other after tax deductions.
7. Add a Description and select how your deduction is calculated. Then, enter the amount or percentage.
8. Click Save, then Done.

You can refer to this handy reference if you need to modify or delete an employee deduction: Set up, change, or delete employee-paid payroll deductions.

Moreover, you'll need to make the payments directly to the agencies or creditors as instructed in the garnishment order or tax levy.
