Setting Up Utilities in Global Payroll for Brazil

To set up utilities in Global Payroll for Brazil, use the Define Variable Attributes BRA (GPBR_COMP_VARS) and the Map Elems to Comp/Rcd BRA (GPBR_ELEM_MAP) components.

This section provides an overview of element mapping and discusses how to:

Define component variables.
Define element mapping.
View delivered elements.

Note. This setup is optional and is designed to help technical people manipulate PIN numbers during development.

Understanding Element Mapping

The element map plays a critical role when packaging and moving elements and data to other databases.

PIN numbers are used in PeopleCode, component interfaces, and reports to refer to global elements. The PIN number is a consecutive number so it can change between databases or releases; therefore, there is a need to create a utility during development so that the PIN number is not hard-coded. Using the utility also ensures consistency between the PIN number changes.

There are two ways to map an element:

By record
By component

Select record when you need to map a record field into a core Global Payroll element.

Select component when the mapping doesn't depend on a record field; instead, it depends on some behavior on the page, for example, the record is used in more than one place and must map to different core Global Payroll elements.

If you select to map an element by component, you may want to define your component variables on the Define Variable Attributes BRA page before you define your element mapping.

PeopleCode Function Example

When you need to use a PIN number in the PeopleCode, use this function to obtain the corresponding PIN number:

Declare Function Get_Pin_Num PeopleCode GPBR_DERIVED_EM.PIN_NUM FieldFormula;
&Record_Name = "GPBR_LOAN";
&Date_Pin_Num = Get_Pin_Num ("R", &Record_Name, "DATE");

Using Core Functionality in Brazil

This section describes how to use the following core PeopleSoft Enterprise Global Payroll features in your Brazilian payroll system:

Retroactivity
Accumulators
Segmentation
Triggers
Rounding rules
Rate codes

Defining Retroactivity in Brazil

Retroactivity is the process of going back in time and recalculating prior calendars because changes were made after the original calculation was run. When retroactive processing occurs for a payee, the system recalculates each element generated for the payee. The difference between these results is the retro delta.

In Global Payroll, there are two methods for calculating retro:

Corrective
Forwarding

Note. In Brazil, all retro is handled with the forwarding method to comply with Brazilian legislation that requires all retroactive payments to be taxed in the current period. This includes both the Default retro method and the On Conflict retro method.

With the forwarding method, payments are calculated in the respective periods, but balance accumulators for the period are not updated. Only the segment accumulators are updated. Deltas are created for each earning, deduction, and segment accumulator used in the process list. These deltas, which are identified on the Retro Process Override page, are forwarded to the current period.

The system generates a retro trigger every time you enter a change on the data described in the following sections.

Changes in the Employee's Data

Changes in employee data include compensation rate-related changes:

Status.
Compensation frequency.
Standard hours.
Pay system flag.
Action for retroactive hire.
Action for retroactive termination.

Changes in Other Data

Changes in other data include absence take-related changes:

Positive input
Pay group

Earnings and deductions are recalculated and a difference results.

Note. Not all earnings or deductions will have an adjustment for retro. Some of the earnings and deductions are forwarded to one earning or deduction, which then appears as a single adjustment in the current period.

Defining Retroactive Processing

Using Accumulators in Brazil

In Brazil, the following types of accumulators are used:

Annual accumulators for annual reports and average salary (when average salary is based in the current year).
Monthly accumulators for tax calculation and social security fees.
Custom accumulators to store absences that affect the weekly days-off and holidays payments.

Using Segmentation in Brazil

In Global Payroll, if there is a change to employee details within a pay period that might affect calculation, such as a pay rate increase, the calculation creates two slices. One slice uses the details before the change and the other slice uses the details after the change.

Global Payroll provides two types of segmentation: period segmentation or full segmentation and element segmentation or slice. Period segmentation occurs when more than one gross-to-net calculation is required. Element segmentation occurs when there is a change in the rate that affects the calculation of one or more elements. In other words, element segmentation occurs when you want to calculate a select set of earnings or deductions multiple times, but not the entire gross to net calculation.

Note. Global Payroll for Brazil does not utilize element segmentation.

In Global Payroll for Brazil, the following items produce a period segmentation:

Changes in eligibility group.
Changes in pay entity.
Changes in pay group.
Hirings and terminations held in the calendar.

Global Payroll for Brazil delivers some segmentation; however, you can alter the delivered segmentation events and add or delete segmentation events depending on your business needs.

Using Triggers in Brazil

Triggers are used to detect online changes to data that should result in some type of system action. Examples of common data changes that might use triggers include a new employee hire or a change in pay rate.

Global Payroll provides three types of triggers:

Iterative − tells the system to process an employee for the current period.
Segmentation − tells the system to segment a period or element.
Retro − tells the system to perform retro processing.

Note. You must first set up an iterative trigger to tell the system when an event occurs, it should perform the desired action. After that, you can use a trigger to process an employee, perform segmentation, or perform retro processing.

Global Payroll for Brazil delivers some triggers; however, you can alter the delivered triggers and add or delete trigger setups depending on your business needs.

Using Rounding Rules in Brazil

In Global Payroll, you can apply rounding to any component of an earning or deduction, the resolved amount of an earning or deduction, or within a formula. Rounding is applied to each of the components first before the resolved amount is rounded. Rounding is applied after proration rules have been applied.

Global Payroll for Brazil does not deliver country-specific rounding rules.
