29 Additional JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Human Capital Management Functionality That Supports PGCA

This chapter provides an overview of additional functionality within the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Human Capital Management systems that supports project and government contract accounting (PGCA) and is available in the base software for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Human Capital Management systems.

This chapter contains the following topics:

29.1 Understanding Additional Functionality That Supports PGCA

This table provides a brief description of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Human Capital Management functionality that supports PGCA, but is available to all customers regardless of whether the Project and Gov Contract Accounting Used check box is selected in the Billing Constants program (P48091). Because the functionality is available to all customers, it is described in detail in the base guides for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.

Functionality Description Cross-Reference
Total Time Accounting Rules If an employee's timecard is subject to total time accounting (TTA) rules on the employee master record, you can control whether the timecard is subject to rules for hourly rate or hours worked. See "Entering Payroll Information for Employees" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Human Capital Management Fundamentals Implementation Guide.
Labor Distribution Periods You can assign a labor distribution period ID to an employee master record. When the employee launches the P051125 program, the system displays valid beginning and ending dates for the labor distribution period ID, if applicable.

Employees who are not assigned labor distribution period IDs enter their time by pay period ending date, as specified in a processing option for the P051125 program.

To add or revise a labor distribution period ID for a date range, you use the P059062 program. A selection from the Form menu in the program accesses the P059063 program, where you can override the standard hours associated with the labor distribution period ID that is assigned to an employee.

See "Entering Payroll Information for Employees" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Human Capital Management Fundamentals Implementation Guide.

See " Setting Up a Flat File Cross-Reference" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Time and Labor Implementation Guide.

Time Card Corrections You can track updates to employee self-service timecard history by setting a constant in the HRM Foundation System Options program (P05001S). This constant enables you to maintain and review updates to detailed history information in the F06116Z2 table.

You use a setup program (P051123) to specify whether the system displays the Change Reason and Change Comments fields on employee self-service time entry forms.

You can control whether links to daily time entry and summary time entry are activated on the Time Entry Self Service Director form by setting processing options in the P051125 program. Labor distribution employees can also make historical corrections to timecards if the option that activates the Timecard Corrections link is selected on the Time Entry Self Service Director form. Alternatively, employees can access Timecard Corrections from the Row menu on the Historical Transactions form.

You can display the correction status of timecard records and whether the corrections were made to a historical timecard in the Timecard Audit Details program (P05116Z2).

You can control whether employees can enter future timecards and whether a change reason is required when employees change timecards by setting processing options for the P051125 program.

Timecard corrections are required when a timecard is accidentally entered with the incorrect employee ID number, or an incorrect number of hours, pay type, rate, or any other data. The Generate Timecard Corrections program (R05602) processes each corrected F06116 record, generates the reversing entries for the original F0618 record, and generates correcting or reversing entries for any associated burden in the F0724 table.

When processing time entry batches, you can summarize timecard details, as well as override the date worked with the labor period ending date using processing options in the R05116Z1I program.

Time Card Approval When reviewing timecards using the Self Service Manager Review & Approval – Timecards program (P051129), managers can set the timecard status to saved, but not submitted for approval, if applicable. Managers can also review missing timecards for a specific period and approve timecards for multiple employees at the same time. See "Approving Self-Service Timecards" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Human Capital Management Self-Service Implementation Guide.
Component Pay Generation Component pay is a method of paying employees or contractors. When you enter a single base pay type, the system automatically creates multiple-component pay timecards based on predefined rules that are assigned to the original base pay type. The system can also create multiple-component pay timecards for interim payments when necessary.

The entry of a single pay type automatically creates multiple timecards in accordance with predefined rules that are assigned to the original pay type. You can generate a report (R05601) that shows each base pay timecard that was processed and the corresponding component pay timecards that were generated.
