Working with Payslips

This chapter provides overviews of payslips for India and discusses how to:

Create payslip templates and payslip messages.
Attach payslip templates to pay groups.
Override payslip delivery options.
Create and print payslips.

Understanding Payslips for India

The Payslip feature enables you to create and control payslips so that they display the data that you want and in the format that you want. You can override templates at lower levels, so you do not have to create multiple templates to cover every payslip scenario that you might encounter.

Regulations require that days worked be printed on payslips to ensure compliance with the Factories Act and Employee State Insurance (ESI). An additional tab for defining this information is available when you create payslip templates.

The PeopleSoft system delivers a query that you can run to view the names of all delivered elements designed for India.

Setting Up Templates and Accumulators

Access the Payslip Setup page (Set Up HRMS, Product Related, Global Payroll & Absence Mgmt, Payslips, Templates IND, Payslip Setup).

Payslip ID

You can attach a single template, by its ID, to multiple pay groups. You can attach multiple templates to a pay group. Each template is used in conjunction with a particular run type.

Exclude Printing

Select either Department or Location to exclude departments or locations from the payslip print run. The corresponding link becomes active, so you can select from the department or location lists.

You can override the exclusion on the Process Payslip page before you run the print program.

Note. If you choose to enter a particular pay entity as the print option on the Process Payslip page and you have excluded a location that falls under that pay entity, it is not printed.

Delivery Option

Select an address type to receive printed payslips. You can select Department or Location to mail the payslip to an internal address, or you can select Home Address or Mail Address to send it to an external address as recorded on the payee's personal data record.

You can override the selection made here on the Payslip Payee Override page, which is effective-dated; therefore, you can override the delivery option for a period of time if necessary.

See Overriding Payslip Delivery Options.

Column 1 to Column 6

Enter the labels that you want to appear across the page on the printed payslip as the column headings for the accumulators. These column labels appear in the payslip region under the region heading Pay Summary.

Accumulators 1 to 3

Sequence

Enter a sequence number to set the order in which the accumulators appear. They appear in ascending order with the lowest number first.

Description

Enter a description of each accumulator row.

Accumulator 1, Accumulator 2, and Accumulator 3

Select the accumulators that you want displayed for the corresponding column.

For example, suppose you enter a description for sequences 1 and 2 as Current and YTD. If you also want to display quarter-to-date accumulated amounts, create a new row, give the new row the description QTD, and then select the accumulators that correlate to the column headings.

Accumulators 4 to 6

Accumulator 4, Accumulator 5, and Accumulator 6

Select the accumulators that you want displayed for the corresponding column. No Sequence or Description fields exist because the same sequence number and description applies to all six accumulators in the row.

You can further refine the payslip print selection by clicking one of the links. Each link accesses a page on which you can select one or more pay entities, pay groups, departments, locations, or payees to include in the payslip print run.

The Structured Query Report (SQR) GPINPS01 prints the payslip report and provides self-service related information for ePay if ePay is licensed.
The GP_EPAY Application Engine process uses the payslip report and self-service related information provided by the prior processes in this job to create self-service payslips for each payee. If ePay is not licensed, this process reports that ePay has not been licensed and finishes successfully.
