Processing Special Situations

This topic discusses how to:

  • Process payees in two open calendar groups.

  • Run off-cycle calendar runs.

Processing Payees in Two Open Calendar Groups

If a payee is on more than one open calendar run, the payee is selected and processed in the first calendar group ID in which that payee is picked up. When the system processes the second calendar group ID, it puts the payee in an error status. To process that payee in the second calendar group ID, do one of the following:

  • Finalize the first calendar group ID and then run the second calendar group ID.

  • Suspend the payee in the first calendar group ID and recalculate the first calendar group ID (to invoke the suspend action). Rerun and finalize the second calendar group ID. Recalculate the first calendar group ID. This might be appropriate, for example, if the payee changes pay groups mid-period and the calendars for the previous and current pay groups are linked to different calendar group.

Running Off-Cycle Calendar Runs

Sometimes you need to run off-cycle absence calculations. For example, you may need to run absence calculations soon after a payee has been terminated. Instructions for performing off-cycle processing are covered elsewhere in this book.
