Updating Payee Data

When you need to change job or personal data for a payee, be sure to add a new effective-dated row. Making changes to an existing row in Job Data or Personal Data can lead to data corruption.

For example, suppose that you run the payroll process and then change a payee's data in an existing Job or Personal Data row. If you change a payment key, the system tries to run retroactive processing to reverse the old payment. However, it will not find a Job row that matches on payment keys with any deltas that are created for the reversed segment and will set the payment in error.

To correct this, change the Job row back to the way it was and insert a new row with a different effective sequence.
