By using “Quarterly” frequency, we have isolated an earning called BONQTR

1. The frequency is the key.2. we have to select a frequency that is different from others.3. So we selected Quarterly as it is not used by other Earning/Deductions.(Please never select Quarterly for any other Earning/Deductions further in future)4. The “Quarterly” frequency should only be paying The Special bonuses.

Thank You…
