Override the definition of a bracket, date, duration, formula, or variable element associated with an earning, deduction, absence take, or absence entitlement element.

With element overrides, you can override certain supporting elements that are associated with a primary element. The supporting element can be part of the primary element's definition.

You use the Element Definition - Supporting Element Overrides page to override the definition of elements associated with primary elements. This page is similar to the Pay Entities - Supporting Element Overrides page.

The processing rules for (primary) element overrides are the same as those for pay entity overrides, but element overrides are resolved in the earning, deduction, or absence module of the batch process. Accordingly, the supporting element that's being overridden reverts to its prior value after being resolved.
