Viewing Processing Results

After running the Calculate phase, you can view the results. Processing results appear on the components listed below. We suggest that you view the pages in the order shown.

Results Pages

Purpose

Log File

Enables the system administrator to determine whether the COBOL process was executed successfully.

Processing Statistics

Provides processing statistics for the run, including the number of payees that are in error. View by calendar or calendar group.

Payee Iterative List

Lists those payees for whom the system has performed iterative calculations.

Payee Messages

Shows error messages and warnings.

Payee Status

Enables you to view the calculation status of payees and to enter processing instructions for individual payees.

Results by Calendar Group ID

Shows a payee's calculated earnings, deductions, accumulators, and supporting elements for each calendar that is associated with the calendar group ID that you select. You also see calculations by calendar segments, positive input, absences, and retroactive calculations, including deltas and forwarded adjustments.

Results by Calendar

These pages display the same information as the Results by Calendar Group pages, but only for the calendar that you select. You can view the results of a calendar that has been used in different Calendar Groups. For example, if retroactivity causes a calendar to be run more than once, you can access the results of the original run, plus the results of each retroactive run.

Element Resolution Chain

Shows how each element was resolved.

These pages can also be a helpful resource after the Finalize phase. All information remains available after you finalize a run except for Payee Messages and Iterative Triggers. Canceling an entire payroll or absence run deletes all results.
