To process payroll for employees in the U.S., you must set up the information in this chapter and also set up all basic payroll information. The information in this chapter discusses only the country-specific setup tasks that you must complete. All other setup tasks are discussed in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll 9.0 implementation guide.
This section provides an overview of prevailing wages, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to review prevailing wages information, and adjust the prevailing wages if there are discrepancies between an employee's actual pay and the prevailing wages.
United States federal law states that employees working on federal government construction projects must be paid no less than the stated prevailing wages and prevailing fringe benefits for similar projects. This legislation requires the contractors to:
Pay prevailing wage rates and benefits for corresponding classes of laborers or similar projects in the area (the Prevailing Wage is determined by the Secretary of Labor).
Keep specific records.
Report weekly certified payroll.
Post employee rights.
Prevailing wages are based on the employee's work classification and what the average rate of pay for that classification is in the area that the job is performed. The federal contractor must pay employees working on a federal project the prevailing rate for the job classification assigned to that employee plus any benefits that apply to that classification. This means that the employer has to determine whether the total of an employee's pay and benefits equals the prevailing wage for the union and job. If the total of an employee's pay and benefits is less than the prevailing wage, then the employer must pay the employee the additional amount.
Note: If an employee has multiple jobs with different prevailing wages, the prevailing wage calculation must be done for each job. |
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll enables you to:
Determine an employee's rate of pay by job.
Compare that rate to the job´s prevailing rate.
Determine what action the system should take when a discrepancy occurs and make the appropriate adjustments.
Review detailed reports showing changes made to an employee's pay.
This process flow describes how the prevailing wages are calculated:

Specify the calculation method used to compute the prevailing wages.
Values are:
WI: If you use the WI (wage invasion) method, the system adds a lump sum timecard to the employee's pay if the employee's actual pay is lower than the prevailing wage. If the employee's actual pay is higher, the system creates a negative lump sum timecard to reduce the employee's pay to an amount not lower than the employee's base hourly rate defined in the Employee Master Information table (F060116).
NW: If you use the NW (non-wage invasion) method, the system adds a lump sum timecard if the employee's actual pay is lower than the prevailing wage.
DB: If you use the DB (Davis-Bacon) method, the system adds a flat dollar one-time override to the DBA Ledger File table (F0709) if the employee's actual pay is lower than the prevailing wage.
FC: If you use the FC (fringe credit) method, the system provides a credit to the employer for the fringe benefits paid to an employee. The system creates a negative lump sum timecard that is equal to the employee's fringe benefit hourly rate multiplied by the timecard hours.
Specify the PDBA code used to indicate whether to generate a lump sum timecard or a flat dollar one-time override if the employee's actual pay is lesser than the minimum prevailing fringe rate.
Select to use the timecard multiplier when calculating the prevailing wage fringe amount.
If you select this option, the prevailing wage fringe amount is calculated by multiplying the employee's DBA amount for the prevailing wage DBA code by the timecard multiplier. If you do not select this option, the prevailing wage fringe amount is equal to the employee's DBA hourly rate for the prevailing wage DBA code.
Access the Work With Prevailing Wage DBA Range form.

Specify the prevailing wage DBA code that is used in the prevailing wage calculation.
Displays the fringe basis DBA code that defines the type of benefit. Benefits are numbered from 1000 to 9999.
If the accruals must be calculated as fringe benefit in the prevailing wage calculations, the fringe basis DBA must be associated with the method of calculation J.
Displays the pay type that is associated with the prevailing wage DBA range record. The value can either be a valid pay type or DEFAULT. If the system displays a valid pay type, the prevailing wage DBA range record applies only to that pay type. If the system displays DEFAULT, the prevailing wage DBA range record is used for pay types that are not found in the F079425 table during the calculation of the employee's fringe amount.
It is required that one default prevailing wage DBA range record exists for each combination of prevailing wage DBA and fringe basis DBA. If a record is not marked as DEFAULT, you must specify a valid pay type.
This option determines whether annualized hours or timecard hours are used when calculating the employee's fringe amount.
Displays the number of hours in one year used in calculating the employee's fringe amount if the Annualize Rate option is selected. In this calculation, each fringe basis DBA code is converted to an hourly rate by multiplying the pay period fringe amount by the employee' s pay frequency and then dividing the result by the value in the Hours Per Year field.
Displays the multiplier used in the employee's fringe amount calculation after the hourly rate is determined for a fringe basis DBA. The multiplier is typically used when an employee works overtime hours and receives an additional fringe credit for those hours.

Displays the code that identifies a group of employees for whom payroll is being processed. Use the Payroll ID to process each step of the payroll cycle.
This code is also used to identify the interim identifier that you select when you enter interim payments.
Displays the calculation method used to compute the prevailing wages.
Values are:
WI: If you use the WI (wage invasion) method, the system adds a lump sum timecard to the employee's pay if the employee's actual pay is lower than the prevailing wage. If the employee's actual pay is higher, the system creates a negative lump sum timecard to reduce the employee's pay to an amount not lower than the employee's base hourly rate defined in the Employee Master Information table (F060116).
NW: If you use the NW (non-wage invasion) method, the system adds a lump sum timecard if the employee's actual pay is lower than the prevailing wage.
DB: If you use the DB (Davis-Bacon) method, the system adds a flat dollar one-time override to the DBA Ledger File table (F0709) if the employee's actual pay is lower than the prevailing wage.
FC: If you use the FC (fringe credit) method, the system provides a credit to the employer for the fringe benefits paid to an employee. The system creates a negative lump sum timecard that is equal to the employee's fringe benefit hourly rate multiplied by the timecard hours.
This is the employee's base hourly rate assigned to the timecard record.
Note: If you change the value of the data display decimals for the PHRT or SHRT fields in Time Entry, you must also change the base rate (BHRT) field to have exactly the same data display decimals. |

This example illustrates how to calculate the fringe rate for a job. The fringe rate is calculated based on the job and fringe basis DBA. The amount that is calculated is computed for each pay type because each pay type is set up with a unique multiplier that is defined in the F079425 table.
The system uses these calculations to determine the fringe rate for a job:
Calculation Method | Calculation |
---|---|
Annualize Rate | (DBA Amount for Pay Type x Pay Frequency)/((Hours Per Year x (Job Gross/Total Check Gross)) x (Pay Type Gross/Job Gross)) x Multiplier |
Timecard Hours | (DBA Amount for Pay Type/Total Pay Type Hours) x Multiplier |
In this example, the Annualize Rate method is used and the following data is set up:
Fringe basis DBAs
1005, $285
1008, $47
8022, $384.14
Timecards
Timecard1/Job1: 46 hours, PT1, $2162
Timecard2/Job2: 34 hours, PT1, $1598
Timecard3/Job2: 4 hours, PT100, $282
To calculate the minimum fringe rate for Job1 and Job2:
First, you calculate the fringe basis DBAs for each timecard and job:
DBA Code | Timecard/Job | Fringe Basis DBA |
---|---|---|
1005 | Timecard1/Job1 | (2162/4042) x 285 = $152.44 |
Timecard2/Job2 | (1598/4042)x 285 = $112.67 | |
Timecard3/Job2 | (282/4042) x 285 = $19.89 | |
1008 | Timecard1/Job1 | (2162/4042) x 47 = $25.14 |
Timecard2/Job2 | (1598/4042) x 47 = $18.58 | |
Timecard3/Job2 | (282/4042) x 47 = $3.28 | |
8022 | Timecard1/Job1 | (2162/4042) x 384.14 = $205.40 |
Timecard2/Job2 | (1598/4042) x 384.14 = $151.86 | |
Timecard3/Job2 | (282/4042) x 384.14 = $26.88 |
Next, calculate the fringe rate for Job1:
DBA Code | Timecard/Job | Fringe Rate Calculation |
---|---|---|
1005 | Timecard1/Job1 | (112.67 x 26)/((2080 x (2162/4042)) x (2162/2162)) = $3.562 |
1008 | Timecard1/Job1 | (18.58 x 26)/((2080 x (2162/4042)) x (2162/2162)) = $0.587 |
8022 | Timecard1/Job1 | (151.86 x 26)/((2080 x (2162/4042)) x (2162/2162)) = $4.801 |
The total fringe rate for Job1 is $3.562 + $0.587 + $4.801 = $8.95.
Calculate the fringe rate for Job2:
DBA Code | Timecard/Job | Fringe Rate Calculation |
---|---|---|
1005 | Timecard2/Job2 | (112.67 x 26)/((2080 x (1880/4042)) x (1598/1880)) = $3.562 |
Timecard2/Job3 | (19.89 x 26)/((2080 x (1880/4042)) x (282/1880)) = 3.562 x 1.5 = $5.343 | |
1008 | Timecard2/Job2 | (18.58 x 26)/((2080 x (1880/4042)) x (1598/1880)) = $0.587 |
Timecard2/Job3 | (3.28 x 26)/((2080 x (1880/4042)) x (282/1880)) = 0.587 x 1.5 = $0.881 | |
8022 | Timecard2/Job2 | (151.86 x 26)/((2080 x (1880/4042)) x (1598/1880)) = $4.801 |
Timecard2/Job3 | (26.88 x 26)/((2080 x (1880/4042)) x (282/1880)) = 4.801 x 1.5 = $7.202 |
The total fringe rate for Job2 is $3.562 + $5.343 + $0.587 + $0.881 + $4.801 + $7.202 = $22.376.
Compare the total fringe rate for Job1 and Job2 with the amount in the F069106 table for the prevailing wage DBA and job. The method of calculation used in the comparison is defined in the F079420 table.
This section provides an overview of the payment process, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to create the flat file for automatic deposits.
After you process employees through pre-payroll, you can print payments for those employees. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll enables you to create these types of payment information:
Paychecks.
Payment advice slips for employees who receive automatic deposits.
Automatic deposit flat files to send to the banking institution.
When you print payments for a payroll cycle that includes at least one employee who receives payment through a direct deposit, you must create an automatic deposit bank file. Using the Create Auto Deposit Tape File program (R07235), the system automatically creates the flat file for automatic deposits. The flat file provides the bank with information from the system that the bank must have to process the automatic deposits.
The flat file that the system creates is named PayACH and is stored in the export folder. Using a text editor, review the PayACH file to verify that the information is correct and complete. If errors occur when you create the file, you can recreate it as many times as necessary until you begin the next payroll cycle, at which point the new information overrides the information in the existing file.
If the file contains errors, delete it and then recreate the file. Otherwise, copy the file to the appropriate media (such as diskette or magnetic tape) and send it to the bank. Consult the system administrator for assistance with this task.
The PayACH file contains five record types, which comply with the requirements of the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA). This table describes each record type that is contained in the flat file:
Record | Description |
---|---|
Record 1: File Header record | This record contains the file header information, including the origin and the intended destination of the file. |
Record 5: Company/Batch Header record | This record contains detailed information about the company and the auto deposit batch. |
Record 6: Employee Entry Detail record | This record contains detailed information about employee bank account numbers, employee identification numbers, names, and deposit amounts. |
Record 8: Company Batch Control record | This record contains the monetary amount totals for each company in the batch. |
Record 9: File Control record | This record contains the totals for the entire flat file. |
Before you complete the tasks in this section:
Verify that the export folder exists, where package name is the name of the software environment and release (for example, PROD733). If the export folder does not exist, you must create it. Contact the system administrator or technical support for assistance with this task.
Set up the conversion table that supports Unicode processing.
Review the processing options for the Create Auto Deposit Tape File program (R07235), and set up payment types to use the correct payment programs.
Process pre-payroll.
See "Processing Pre-Payroll" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Payroll Implementation Guide.

This section includes an overview of the retroactive payment printing process and discusses how to:
Set up states for retroactive pay printing.
Set retro pay processing options for the Payroll Workbench.
Set retro pay processing options for the Interim Payment Workbench.
Change the dates for payroll processing.
Recently, some states have changed labor legislation regarding the printing of retroactive pay on employee pay stubs and payment advice slips. Some states now require that any retroactive payments that are included in an employee's payment are printed separately from current earnings, and that the date range that is associated with those retroactive payments is also printed.
To ensure that this information prints correctly for all payments that occur in states that require this information, you must complete these steps:
Set up each state that requires retroactive pay to be printed separately.
Set the processing options for the Payroll Workbench (P07210) and the Interim Payment Workbench (P07210I).
Enter timecards that include work dates that are earlier than the beginning date of the current pay period.
Change the From Date of the current payroll cycle to include the retroactive timecards.
To set up retroactive pay information by state, you use the Paystub Retro Pay State Setup program (P07212). This program enables you to specify which states require you to print retroactive pay separately.
After you specify which states require retroactive pay to print separately, you set the processing options to specify that you want to print retroactive pay separately. The same processing option exists for both the Payroll Workbench (P07210) and the Interim Payment Workbench (P07210I). These options must be set to 1 in order for retroactive pay to print separately on employee pay stubs.
After you have set up the system to print retroactive pay correctly, you can enter timecards for retroactive pay. To be considered a retroactive timecard, the work date on the time card must be earlier than the pay period beginning date of the current payroll cycle.
After you have entered retroactive timecards, you can process them through a payroll cycle or through an interim payment process. When you process the payment through a regular payroll cycle, you must first change the date in the From field in the Dates section of the Pre-Payroll Processing form to a date that is earlier than the pay period beginning date. Changing the date enables the system to include the retroactive timecards in the payroll cycle.
Note: You cannot enter a date that is more than two months earlier than the actual pay period beginning date. To process timecards with earlier work dates, you must use the Interim Payment Workbench. |
During payroll processing, or interim processing, the system determines whether any timecards exist with a work date that is earlier than the original pay period beginning date. If timecards that meet this criterion exist, the system then determines whether the timecards are associated with a state that has been set up to print retroactive pay separately. If all of the criteria is met, the system prints retroactive pay information as a separate line on the employee's pay stub or payment advice.
Additionally, the system enters a date range in the description below the retroactive pay. The date range that is printed on the payment is the date that is manually entered in the From field and the ending date is one day prior to the original pay period begin date.
For example, if the current pay period is June 15 through June 30, and you want to process retroactive timecards with work dates in May, change the From field in the Dates section of the Pre-Payroll Processing form to May 1. When payments and advices are printed, all retroactive pay will be listed separately, and the description for each item is the date range of May 1 through June 14.

This section provides an overview of U.S. payroll reports and discusses how to:
Set processing options for the Employee Social Security Register (R073665).
Set processing options for the Workers' Compensation Register (R073601).
Set processing options for the General Liability Insurance Register (R073651).
During the payroll cycle, you can print reports from the Payroll Workbench. These reports include data for the payroll ID that you select when you process the reports. In addition to the reports that are available for the U.S., there are other reports that can be processed for all supported countries.
You use the information on the Federal Tax Distribution Summary report (R073170) to determine the federal tax burden for a payroll cycle. Generating this report during pre-payroll enables you to promptly submit federal taxes. The report lists totals of taxable wages and federal tax amounts for the current period and for month-to-date. It also lists tax amounts by company for quarter-to-date and year-to-date.
You can generate this report during a payroll cycle only. You cannot generate reports from the Report Setup form.
You use the information on the State Tax Distribution Summary report (R073162) to determine the state tax burden for this payroll cycle.

You can generate the Workers' Compensation Register report (R073601) to review the rates paid by the company per employee for workers' compensation insurance. The rates that an employer pays for workers' compensation insurance vary by job type. In some cases, employees, rather than employers, might be required to pay workers' compensation premiums. In such situations, the reports contain the employee-paid amounts.
The report includes:
Employee listing by company.
Employee hours and gross wages.
Employee job type and job step.
Excludable and overtime wages.
Premium amounts for each employee.
Totals for each work state and company.
Grand totals for the report.
You can generate the report in either of these formats:
Detailed report, which includes each line of time entry.
Summary report, which consolidates the information by employee, company, tax area, workers' compensation code, job type, and job step.
The information provided in the Workers' Compensation Register report is based on the Employee Transaction History table (F0618).
You can generate this report during a payroll cycle only. You cannot generate reports from the Report Setup form.
You can generate the General Liability Insurance Register report (R073651) to review the rates paid by the company per employee for general liability insurance. The employer pays one standard rate for general liability insurance for each employee. The General Liability Insurance Register report is identical to the Workers' Compensation Register report, except for the actual amounts that appear in the Workers' Compensation Amount field. The system bases the totals on the general liability rate.
The information provided in this report is based on the Employee Transaction History table (F0618).
You can generate this report during a payroll cycle only. You cannot generate reports from the Report Setup form.
Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.
For programs, you can specify options such as the default values for specific transactions, the availability of fields on a form, and the version of the program that you want to run.
For reports, processing options enable you to specify the information that appears on reports. For example, you set a processing option to include the fiscal year or the number of aging days on a report.
Do not modify JD Edwards EnterpriseOne demo versions, which are identified by the prefix ZJDE or XJDE. Copy these versions or create new versions to change any values, including the version number, version title, prompting options, security, and processing options.
Although processing options are set up during JD Edwards EnterpriseOne implementation, you can change processing options each time that you run a program.
Use this processing option to specify the FICA maximum wage base that applies to the Employee and Employer FICA Register.
Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.
Use this processing option to specify the employee number that the system prints on the report. Values are:
1: Address Book number
2: Social Security number
3: Third employee number

This section provides an overview of interim payment tax overrides and discusses how to enter tax overrides for interim payments.
When you enter interim payments, you can override employee tax information so that the interim payment includes the amounts that you want to appear on the payment. You can override tax information on the Interim Entry form, or you can access the employee's current tax exemption and credit information from the Interim Workbench and override that information to calculate the interim payment.
Note: When you override tax information from the Interims Workbench, the employee's permanent tax information does not change. The overridden information is used only for the calculation of the interim payment that you are entering for the employee.Also, if you are using the batch method to process interim payments, you must enter tax overrides using the Tax Overrides option from the Form menu, because the tax tabs on the Interim Entry form are disabled for batch processing. |
Note: You cannot override state unemployment insurance rates on an interim payment. If you want the state unemployment insurance rate (tax type C) to calculate at a rate different than the Federal rate, you must set up records for tax type C at the state level using the Unemployment Insurance Rate Revisions program (P079221). However, if you calculated state unemployment insurance on past employee payments using the wrong rate, you can enter adjustment interim payments to correct those amounts. |
To enter tax overrides, you must first complete the initial steps to enter an interim payment.
Access the Interim Entry form. Select the US Exemptions/Credits tab.
You can enter up to four tax overrides on the US Exemptions/Credits tab. To enter additional tax overrides for the interim payment, select Tax Overrides from the Form menu.
If you are using batch processing to enter interim payments, on Work With Interims Workbench, select the interim ID in the detail area, select Process Interims from the Row menu, and then select Process Single.
If you are running multiple versions of the Interim Calculation program, select Process Interims from the Row menu and then select Process Multiple.
