Setting Up Employee Data for Intercompany Transfers
These topics discuss how to set up employee data for intercompany transfers.
Note: This topic discusses the basics of how to set up an intercompany transfer. See the next topic for detailed examples of data entry and maintenance.
Whenever you need to track intercompany transfers, whether as a home company or a host company, set up the employee data:
Enter a new job record with standard actions such as transfer, termination, and hire, but with specific action reasons that are related to intercompany transfers.
Complete the intercompany transfer fields in the Japan section of the Work Location page.
Selecting Actions and Reasons for Intercompany Transfers
These are the actions and reasons that you use on the Administer Workforce pages when you work with intercompany transfers:
|
Action |
Reason |
|---|---|
|
Transfer |
|
|
Termination |
|
|
Hire |
|
You can use the Pay Group field on the Job Data - Payroll page to identify whether the home or the host company is responsible for paying an employee on temporary intercompany transfer. If the home company is paying, put the employee in a standard pay group with other employees. If the host company is paying, put the employee in a designated dummy pay group that has no payroll processing implications for your (home) company.
Similarly, if you are the host for a temporary intercompany transfer, put the employee in a standard pay group if you are paying the employee, or into a designated dummy pay group if the home company is paying the employee.
Note: When the Payroll System field is set to Other on the Job Data - Payroll page, the Pay Group field is not a required field. You can use the field as described previously whether it is required or not.
