Changes for version 1.7 of the USPS SOAP service

• The Payment schema element has been redesigned to more clearly distinguish pay checks from deduction checks. The Payment element is now broken down into three elements: PaymentHeader, EmployeePayment, and DeductionPayment. The PaymentHeader element contains elements that are common to both employee payments and deduction payments. The EmployeePayment element contains elements specific to an employee pay check, while the DeductionPayment element contains elements specific to a deduction check. The EmployeePayment and DeductionPayment elements are optional. Only one will be contained within each Payment element. The updated Payment schema element can be viewed at http://devel.ssdt.nwoca.org/uspssoap170/usps-42.xsd.
