Use

In payroll, a check is carried out as to whether tax exemptions for pensions can be taken into account for the collective wage type for potential benefits payments. The age of the employee and this indicator are used to do this.
The tax exemption for pensions is always taken into account for the collective wage type for real benefits payments.
The tax exemptions for pensions are never taken into account for wage types that you do not cumulate in the collective wage types for benefits payments.

Procedure

The default value for the minimum age for tax exemptions for pensions is 'age-dependent'.
