Assigning and Viewing Print Classes

For multiple reports the layout and contents is determined by a print class. You can select a specific print class on the run control page before running a report. Print Classes are defined using the GP Core List Set feature. You can use the delivered list sets or build your own print classes.

See Understanding Applications and List Sets.

This table displays that delivered list sets that work best with the reports displayed in the right hand column:

List Set

Report

CH_GPCHDM12

Payslip (GPCHAL10)

CH_GPCHDM21

Pay Balance (GPCHTX06)

Pay Element Summary (GPCHAL08)

Element Contribution (GPCHAL07)

CH_GPCHSI03

Personal Statement (GCHPSI03)

To make changes to the delivered print class, access the Element Group Attributes page (select Set Up HCM, Product Related, Global Payroll & Absence Mgmt, Elements, Define List Set. Then click the Element Group Details icon).

This table describes how to use the fields on the Element Group Attributes page for the CH_GPCHDM12 and CH_GPCHDM21 list set:

Print Class

Notation of Print Class

Element Name

Displays the element for which print properties get setup here.

Default Sort

Displays the default as assigned in the element group. This has no impact for the Swiss payroll reports.

Override the assignment of earnings and deductions for mobile payslips. If you select Override, the system shows an earning under deductions and a deduction under earnings.

For more information, see the documentation for the Payment Summary Page.

Print Group

Assign the group in which the type of salary should be printed on the report.

Print Sequence

Assign the sequence in which the type of salary should be printed on the report.

Print Calc

Print Rate

Select this check box if you want the rate value printed.

Print Units

Select this check box if you want the unit value printed.

Print Percent

Print Sum Amount

Override Value

If you want to reverse the algebraic sign of the salary type, enter –1.

Note: Not all columns are used for every report. For the payslip report the system defines all components in one line. Thus, under element names only earnings and deductions and the selected columns correspond to the required component. For legal reports a dedicated line is required. This means that you will only see one column checked. This selection needs to match the defining component.

For example, if the Auto Assignment component base (CH_AH_D11_Base) is selected, then Print Base needs to be selected as well. For the Personal Statement report the system supports only Print Group 1 and Print Group 2. In Print Group 1, assignments appear under the Base Salary chapter. In Print Group 2, assignments appear under the Insurance Deductions chapter.

To use components for legal reports you need to first allow assignment of components in the list set by selecting GP_ENT_EGELN_VW in the Entry Prompt ID field on the Entry Type Prompts page (select Set Up HCM, Product Related, Global Payroll & Absence Mgmt, System Settings, Entry Type Prompts).
