Processing steps.
Processing summary.
Consolidation.
To process a payroll in Payroll for North America using Time and Labor data:
Set up the interface between Time and Labor and Payroll for North America.
Load time and labor data into paysheets.
PeopleSoft recommends executing the Load Time and Labor COBOL SQL process (PSPLDTL1) immediately before executing the payroll calculation. This ensures that the payroll system receives the most current information for processing.
Review error messages in the Review Time and Labor Load component (PY_LDTL_TBL).
You can locate and view all errors for each employee that has errors.
If errors result from payable time, resolve them in Time and Labor and load data again.
Run the Pay Calculation COBOL SQL process (PSPPYRUN) and the remaining phases of the payroll cycle through confirmation.
Run the Extract Time and Labor Costs Application Engine process (PY_PULL_COST) to extract time and labor costs from Payroll for North America into Time and Labor.
This diagram illustrates the responsibilities of the Payroll User in the Payroll for North America and Time and Labor interface:
Responsibilities of Payroll User in the Payroll for North America and Time and Labor interface
Time and Labor generates payable time that can be transmitted to a payroll application by using an integration feature between the two applications. All interactions between Time and Labor and Payroll for North America are initiated from the payroll pages.
Note. The system excludes non-employee data from being updated in Payroll for North America.

We recommend that you do not select these options because they control whether users can make paysheet changes to data that is retrieved from Time and Labor. If you select these options, any changes made directly to the paysheets aren't transmitted back to Time and Labor. |
Load in Preliminary Calc (load in preliminary calculations) |
The Pay Calculation process uses the value of the Load in Preliminary Calc field to determine whether to load new available time (additional time that was worked before the job change but not previously entered on paysheets):
Note. If an employee had a Job data change that caused paysheets to be rebuilt, the Pay Calculation process attempts to reload all valid time and rejects time that is no longer valid as a result of the job change. This is true regardless of the setting of the Load in Preliminary Calc field. As a result, some new time might be loaded for employees who had a Job data change, even when this option is not selected on the Installation table. |

Task Elements to Load to Payroll |
Insert a row for each time and labor element that you want to be loaded onto paysheets: Account Code, Business Unit, Department, Job Code, Locality, Position Number, and State. Separate lines are created on the paysheets whenever a new set of time and labor elements is encountered. For example, if you select Business Unit and then put a different business unit on the regular hours reported for each day (for five days), five lines would be created on the paysheet. However, if you select Business Unit and Department, then enter the same business unit and department on all hours reported for the pay period, one line would be created on the paysheet. Certain values also have dependencies. If you select Department, you must also select Business Unit. If you select Job Code, you must also select Business Unit. If you select Locality, you must also select State. |
Note. The Payroll for North America system is delivered with the default values of State and Locality already inserted on this page. If you designate multiple task elements on this page, it may cause problems with the array size. Take this into consideration when setting up this page.

Select processing parameters.
Filter the load processing.
Select earnings for on-cycle separate checks.
Use the following guidelines to ensure an accurate transfer of time and labor data to Payroll for North America paysheets.
Processing Steps
To process a payroll in Payroll for North America using time and labor data:
Load time and labor data into paysheets.
Review results and correct errors.
Start the pay calculation processing and the remaining phases of the payroll cycle.
Payroll Processes That Load Time and Labor Time
The following Payroll for North America processes load payable time from Time and Labor:
Load Time and Labor COBOL SQL process (PSPLDTL1).
Pay Calculation.
Online Check.
Final Check.
Iterative Processing
Initiate the loading of the time and labor data from the Load Time and Labor component (PY_LDTL_RC), where you specify the pay run ID and additional criteria to filter data you want to load. Based on the options that you select in this component, the process selects appropriate payable time from Time and Labor records. You can also identify which data should be loaded to separate checks.
You can run and rerun the update process on an iterative basis. The first time that you run the update process, the system updates all time and labor earnings on the paysheets for the employees selected by the run parameters. Then, any subsequent load runs under the same parameters update only data that needs to be updated, such as earnings for employees who have a Job change or whose time and labor earnings have changed since the last pay update process was run. Data is also updated if there are new rows of time and labor data that are eligible to be transferred to paysheets.
Running the Load Time and Labor process iteratively makes sense if you administer a salaried group of employees who have a very low exception rate. In this situation, you can run the Load Time and Labor process after you create time at the beginning of a pay period, then run a preliminary pay calculation and do some cleanup. Then, at the end of the pay period, you can run the Load Time and Labor process again to select only those employees who have reported exceptions during the period, such as the odd vacation or sick leave. Even with the odd exception time, remember that the Load Time and Labor process performs a complete reupdate of the employee's time to ensure that the time is properly summarized.
Time and Labor as Other Earnings
After selecting payable time, the Load Time and Labor process consolidate the payable time and creates or updates the appropriate paysheets. It loads time and labor data into the paysheets as Other Earnings and marks the paysheets as Other Earnings. After processing is complete, the system identifies the time and labor data in Pay Other Earnings by selecting the TL Records (time and labor records) check box on the parent Pay Earnings record.
Additional paysheet transactions, unique other earnings lines on the paysheet, are generated for time and labor data based on any of the following information in effect for the employee during the pay period:
Tax distribution.
Earnings distribution.
Prior period adjustments.
Task element overrides to paysheets.
(USA) Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) adjustments.
Job change (pay group, department, rate change, and so on).
If a paysheet already exists for the employee, that paysheet is updated. If the paysheet does not exist for the employee, the Create Paysheet COBOL SQL process (PSPPYBLD) creates one for both on-cycle and off-cycle runs.
Hourly and Exception Hourly Employees
For hourly or exception hourly employees, any regular hours that are created by the Create Paysheet process, posted in the Reg Hrs (regular hours) field on the paysheet, are set to zero during the loading of time and labor payable time to paysheets.
You should report the hours, units, or dollars that represent regular time through Time and Labor.
Because salaried employees are not paid on an hourly basis, it is not appropriate to pay them based on the number of regular hours that are reported in Time and Labor. In this case, the Load Time and Labor process does not set to zero any regular earnings that are created by the Create Paysheet process, nor does it load paysheets with any time and labor earnings mapped to the default regular earnings code for the salaried employee's pay group. Salaried employees are paid the amount that is posted in the Reg Salary (regular salary) field on the paysheet earnings line. However, the payroll costs for salaried employees can be distributed in Time and Labor.
Prior to loading time and labor earnings through the Load Time and Labor process, the system removes any holiday hours that are created by the Create Paysheet process, regardless of employee type. It is expected that all holiday time be reported through Time and Labor or created by Time and Labor system processes.
Prior Period Adjustments
The Load Time and Labor process automatically updates prior period adjustments in Time and Labor. The process populates the paysheet with both the negative and positive hours, amounts, or unit in Other Earnings. It summarizes all negative and positive adjustment entries by date and by earnings code.
The Load Time and Labor process creates a new earnings entry for each prior period adjustment and sets the pay earning's begin/end dates equal to the prior period adjustments date under report.
(CAN) EI Prior Period Corrections
The system does not determine whether prior period time is a prior period correction for EI (employment insurance) purposes or a prior period adjustment. After loading prior period time from Time and Labor, you must select the EI Period Correction check box on the paysheet only for pay corrections, not for pay adjustments.
Use these definitions to determine whether the prior period time is a pay adjustment or pay correction for EI purposes:
Pay adjustments are situations where there has been a delay in recognizing, implementing, or processing a change in an employee's pay.
For example, an increase in wages under a union contract, agreed to three months after the end of the previous contract, gives rise to a retroactive pay increase or adjustment.
Pay corrections involve errors such as hours missed when a previous pay period was processed, incorrectly keyed pay rates affecting previous pay periods processed, or back wages paid to an employee who was wrongfully dismissed.
The insurable earnings and hours for pay corrections must be allocated to the prior pay periods for which they are paid, not the pay periods in which they are paid.
Single Online Check
When you request a single online check, you first see a message box that asks if you want to use the Create Paysheet process. If you answer Yes, and the Time and Labor application is installed, you get a second message box that asks if you want the process to retrieve available time and labor data. If you answer Yes to this message, the system displays the Filter Options page where you can filter available time by earnings code or date range.
Final Check
You can use an existing on-cycle calendar to run the Final Check process. The Final Check process takes any existing paysheets, including Time and Labor, and copies them to an off-cycle paysheet. Then it marks the source paysheets as Not OK to Pay. In effect, the Final Check process generates an off-cycle request for one employee. It uses the same logic as the final check currently uses to determine the pay end date to use for the creation of the Time and Labor paysheets. The system always asks if you want to use existing paysheets or create new ones.
The Request Final Check page includes the Include T&L Payable Time check box which you select if you want to include time and labor payable time in the Final Check Paysheet Creation process. This option brings a separate Pay Other Earnings Rows sourced from Time and Labor.
If you run the Payroll Unsheet SQR Report process (PAYUNSHT) after loading payable time from Time and Labor, the system sets the payable status to Rejected with a reason of Cancelled.

Integrating with Payroll Applications
Time and Labor maintains employee time information at the work day and task levels to meet a variety of requirements such as project costing and various accounting functions. However, this level of detail is not required for payroll processing. Because such detail is not necessary, and to minimize payroll processing time, the Load Time and Labor process selects and consolidates time and labor data to load into paysheets.
Consolidation of Time and Labor Data for Paysheets
The system uses the Time and Labor date under report (the date for which time was reported) and pay calendar pay begin and end dates to identify which daily time transactions to select for consolidation to the paysheets. Any current period information that has been paid in a previous off-cycle pay run is not included in an on-cycle pay run for the current period.
Only daily Time and Labor time records with the following criteria are selected:
A payable status of Estimate, Approved, Rejected by Payroll, Taken by Payroll, Paid-Labor Distributed, or Paid-Labor Diluted.
Prior period adjustments that have a date under report less than the pay begin date.
Payable status of Sent to Payroll or Closed and payroll request number is zero (time has not already been paid) and record-only adjustment is "N" (No).
Both the corresponding adjustment amounts for prior period adjustments and any offsets are updated to the paysheets.
Consolidation Criteria
Time and Labor selects the appropriate payable time and transfers the data to Payroll for North America and consolidates the data. Consolidation of data entries takes place when the following criteria are met:
The date under report (the date for which time was reported) is the same for multiple rows of payable time (the rows are consolidated).
The employee's Job information has not changed during the pay period.
The earnings codes are the same.
The payment types for the earnings code match (Either Hours or Amount OK; and Hourly Only).
The state, locality, override rate, and compensation rate code, if entered for the payable time, match.
The account code, business unit, department, job code, and position number, if entered for the payable time, match.
Payroll for North America only checks these five task-related elements if they have been defined on the Pay Group Table - Time and Labor page. For example, if Entry 1 has an account code of 123, and Entry 2 has an account code of 456, the system combines these entries if all of the other consolidation requirements are met, unless account code has been defined on the Pay Group Table - Time and Labor page.
Prior period adjustments are consolidated separately from current period earnings. In addition, positive and negative prior period adjustments are consolidated separately.
Prior period adjustments are always consolidated one day at a time, so the earnings begin and end dates in Payroll for North America are always equal to the adjustment's date under report in Time and Labor. This provides Payroll for North America with enough information to recalculate FLSA rates.
Consolidated Entries Linked to Original Entries
The system keeps track of how it consolidates payable time and informs Time and Labor which entries are combined by passing back a set of sequence and cross-reference numbers for each time entry. This information is important to the labor distribution process.
The Load Time and Labor page enables you to specify parameters that determine:
Whether to load time to an on-cycle or off-cycle pay run.
Whether to load all available time, only prior period time, or to filter time by:
Employee
Use this filter if, for example, you need to process a time adjustment for a single employee after the regular payroll is loaded.
Earnings code
You can use earnings code filters in conjunction with all other filters.
Pay group
Use this filter if you need to resolve issues with particular pay groups but not all.
Date range
Use this filter if, for example, the regular payroll is loaded but new time adjustments are required. You can load the adjustments without picking up any new time.
Whether to load time to a separate check:
Use the On-Cycle Separate Check page to select up to three sets of earnings codes grouped for separate checks in an on-cycle pay run.
Use the Load Time to Separate Check indicator with on-cycle or off-cycle pay runs to load all prior period time for all employees in the pay run to a separate check or to load all filtered time for the designated filters in the pay run to a separate check.
Some of these options are mutually exclusive.

This table provides examples of how the On-Cycle Separate Check page might be used for some of the load processing options:
Processing Option |
Example of On-Cycle Separate Check Page Usage |
Load All Time |
Indicate that overtime is to be paid on a separate check, but all other time is paid on the regular check. |
Load Filtered Time |
Load only one employee for only one earnings to a separate check. |
A refresh request is a method of recapturing lost data. It is not generally a normal stage in the regular processing cycle.
A refresh request enables you to reselect all of the data that was passed in the original request, current and prior period adjustments, plus any new unclaimed payable time entries (where payable status is set to Estimate, Closed, Sent to Payroll, or Rejected by Payroll).
Use the Review Time and Labor Load component (PY_LDTL_TBL) to determine the correct run to refresh prior to running the refresh process.
The selection process for refresh requests is the same as an original request. The only difference is that prior to the loading of data, a process runs that performs the following functions:
Deletes the payroll request number and pay system value on the Payable Time record.
Deletes all applicable transactions in Pay Earnings and Pay Other Earnings.
Resets payable status.
In addition to other setup steps previously discussed, you must define the pay run ID and pay calendars prior to running this process.

Paysheets are created only for employees who have available payable time. The employee record number value is set by default to 0 (zero). If the employee has multiple jobs within the company, and you want to load time and labor data for that employee for a particular job, enter the employee record number corresponding to that job. |
Earnings Codes |
Enter earnings codes to load data for a special payment, such as a bonus run. If no earnings codes are selected, the system assumes that you want to load data for all earnings codes. |
Paygroups |
Select pay groups if you want to restrict the load by company and pay group. If no pay groups are selected, the system assumes that you want to load data for all pay groups. |
Date Range |
Select dates to restrict the load to a date range. To load all time prior to a particular date, enter only an end date and leave the from date blank. If you enter a from date but leave the through date blank, the system enters the pay end date as the default through date. |

This section provides an overview and discusses how to:
View load process request parameters.
Identify load messages by employee.
View load messages by employee.
Payroll for North America provides the Review Time and Labor Load component (PY_LDTL_TBL) in which you can review the load parameters and view:
One row for each employee that has error messages for the selected pay run ID and last payroll request number.
Details of all load messages for a selected employee.
Review errors in the Review Time and Labor Load component after each run of the Load Time and Labor process. You can also view the same error messages on the Review Payroll Error Messages page. You can check the status of the process with Process Monitor. However, the only error conditions that Process Monitor recognizes are those that affect the successful completion of the programs.
Note. If you encounter errors or discrepancies after you run pay calculation, we recommend that instead of making corrections on the paysheets, you make any time and labor corrections in Time and Labor, then rerun the Load Time and Labor process. The Time and Labor records and Payroll for North America records will then be synchronous.
Interpreting and Correcting Errors
For payable time that does not map to an earnings code, the system changes the payable time status to Rejected and generates an error message.
If you receive an "Invalid Mapping of TRC to NA Earnings Code" error message during processing, you must correct the time reporting code (TRC) to NA earnings code mapping and rerun the Load Time and Labor process.
If you receive an "Invalid Currency of TRC for the NA Pay Group" error message during processing, you have a conflict between the default currency for the pay group and the TRC currency. You must resolve this conflict, then rerun the Load Time and Labor process.
If you unsheet the payroll, the time and labor load error messages disappear because paysheets are required for the display of error messages.

This section provides an overview of how to extract time and labor costs and discusses how to extract time and labor costs from Payroll for North America to Time and Labor.
After you have loaded time and labor payable time into Payroll for North America and then run the Pay Calculation and Pay Confirmation processes, you can extract the time and labor costs from Payroll for North America into Time and Labor. The Extract Time and Labor Costs Application Engine process (PY_PULL_COST) updates the Payable Time record in Time and Labor and flags the data with an indicator that the data originated from Payroll for North America. "Labor distribution" is another term for this extracting of time and labor costs.
Note. You define that you want labor distribution and labor dilution to be processed on the Pay System page in Time and Labor.
The following Payroll for North America processes call the Extract Time and Labor Costs process to return costs to Time and Labor:
Pay Calculation (on-cycle and off-cycle).
Online Check.
Final Check.

If you use the Manage Commitment Accounting business process in PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Resources, select to have the labor distribution process run first from Time and Labor, which then triggers the Actuals Distribution COBOL SQL process (PSPPFUND), which summarizes the rows of payable time that are linked to a Manage Commitment Accounting account code (funding source) and prepares it for the interface to PeopleSoft Enterprise General Ledger. After the Actuals Distribution process runs, then the ACTUAL_TIME_BATCH_ADD service operation is sent to PeopleSoft Projects, if that application is installed. |
On-Cycle Run
Use this group box for on-cycle or off-cycle earnings. If you use this group box, the process references the pay run ID and not all of the associated pay calendars that are attached to the pay run ID. The pay run ID can be attached to on-cycle and off-cycle pay calendars. The process extracts all of the pay calendars that are related to the pay run ID and checks the earnings that are attached.
The Extract Time and Labor Costs process can be run for on-cycle earnings, off-cycle earnings, or both.
Pay Run ID |
Select the pay run ID that identifies the pay calendars from which you want to extract time and labor costs. |
On-Cycle |
If you select this option, on-cycle earnings are distributed only once. |
Off-Cycle |
If you select this option, off-cycle pay earnings that are attached to an on-cycle pay calendar are rerun again, as there might be additional off-cycle pay earnings that have been added. If the off-cycle pay earnings are associated to an off-cycle pay calendar, the T&L Extract costs check box on the Pay Calendar Table page is selected when it is first run, and those costs aren't rerun through labor distribution. |
Both |
