Run the Salary Packaging Enrollment PSJob process (HRAU_SPE) to enroll an employee or pay group in a salary package.

The Salary Packaging Enrollment process creates compensation rates on the Job Data - Compensation page for all employees with a confirmed package. This process saves you the administrative overhead of updating each of the employee's records after a package has been confirmed.

You can run the package enrollment process for individual employees or for a pay group. Regardless of the selection criteria, enrollments are only completed for confirmed packages with a status of proposed.

When enrolling employees, the system identifies the relevant payroll information from the component definitions. Each component and additional component has a compensation rate code attached. The system uses this information to enroll employees.

Enrolling Employees in Salary Packages

When enrolling an employee through salary packaging for the first time, the rate codes on the employee's Job Data - Compensation page are replaced with all of the salary packaging rate codes (unless the original rate code is not flagged as Maintained by Salary Packaging).

If the employee has been packaged before, and you are enrolling a package because of review or an amendment, then the enrollment process treats the package as a new package. All salary packaged flagged compensation rate codes are deleted and new codes inserted.

Note: Regardless of the selection criteria, the package enrollment process is completed for only confirmed packages.

You can see the result of the package enrollment process by viewing the impacted employee's job data record before and after running the enrollment process.

The Job Data - Compensation page displays the employee's compensation rate. It also indicates the source of the record with the Salary Packaged check box. If the record was not created by the package enrollment process, theSalary Packaged check box clears.

After you have run the package enrollment process, both the action/reason code and the Salary Packaged check box indicate that a salary packaging process inserted this record.

Use the Enroll Salary Package page (RUNCTL_PKG001) to run the Salary Packaging Enrollment PSJob process (HRAU_SPE) to enroll an employee or pay group in a salary package.
