Formatting Payroll Checks - Can I specify which specific field from I want to display at a specific location?

Question

I have purchased direct deposit advice forms that have pre-printed sections for FICA, Medicare, Social Security, Federal, State, and Local Taxes. Is there anyway to take the <Payroll Field> section and link it direclty to a specific field? Or will they always go through a pre-determined sequence?

As you can see from my format below, there are several <Payroll Field> rows that, when printed on the check, list the various Payroll Fields (gross, fica, ss, medicare, etc....). How can I change the <Payroll Field> to indicate a very specific member of the <Payroll Field>?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

You can't choose specific payroll fields. Each <Payroll Field> is just given the next piece of data in line. The order can be adjusted in the Payroll Settings Wizard. Go to the Maintain menu > Default Information > Payroll Settings. On the left side of the Payroll Settings window you'll find Field Order. From there you can control the order of your tax and deduction fields and well as the hourly/salary fields. 
 Also, in the form design window, click the Options button and check the boxes for Commands and Order Number. That will help you see how data is flowing on the form.
