  • Select the absence types that appear.

  • Use standard or customized element descriptions.

  • Set delivery options.

  • Exclude departments or locations from printing at the setup level, but override those exclusions at run time.

Use the Templates THA - Accumulators page (GPTH_PSLP) to set up delivery and print exclusion options, column headings (labels), and column contents (rows of accumulators).

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Templates THA - Accumulators page.

Templates THA - Accumulators page

Note: Select the tabs in the Accumulator Elements scroll area to access additional views of this page. Fields that are common to all views are documented first.

Field or Control

Description

Payslip ID

Select an ID to attach a single template to multiple pay groups. Only one template can be attached to a pay group at any one time.

Payslip Template Definition

Field or Control

Description

Delivery Option

Determines where the hardcopy payslips are sent. Select from a list of internal type addresses, such as department or location, or external addresses, such as home address or mail address, which are recorded in the payee's personal data record.

Use the Payee Payslip Overrides page to override the delivery destination of the printed payslip from the default delivery option that you select here. The Payee Payslip Overrides page is effective-dated to enable you to override the delivery option for a period of time.

Exclude Printing

Select Location or Department to exclude the printing of specific departments or locations on your payslips. The corresponding links then become available and enable you to select the specific departments or locations that you don't want to display on the payslips during the print process. You can select multiple locations or departments.

If you want to print a location or department that you previously excluded, you can override this on the Create/Print Payslips THA page before you run the print process.

Note: If you enter a pay entity as the reprint option on the Create/Print Payslips THA page and you exclude a location that is part of that pay entity, it is not printed.

Accumulator Labels

Enter the column heading labels for the accumulators that appear across the page on the printed payslip.

Accumulator 1 to 3 tab

Access the Accumulators 1 to 3 tab.

Field or Control

Description

Sequence

Enter a sequence number to set the order in which the accumulators appear. They appear in ascending order.

Description

Enter a description of each accumulator row.

Accumulator 1,Accumulator 2, and Accumulator 3

Select the accumulators to display for the corresponding column. Accumulator 1 values appear under the column 1 label, accumulator 2 values appear under the column 2 label, and so on.

For example, you might have already have entered a description of sequence 1 and 2 as current and year to date. If you also want to display quarter-to-date accumulated amounts, you must create a new row, give the new row the description value of QTD, and select the accumulators that correspond to the column headings (labels).

Accumulators 4 to 6 Tab

Access the Accumulators 4 to 6 tab.

Set up accumulators 4 to 6 on this tab. This is the same as the Accumulators 1 to 3 tab, except that it does not have sequence or description fields because the same sequence number and description apply to all six accumulators in the row.

Use the Templates THA - Earnings and Deductions page (GPTH_PSLP1) to create sections of earnings and deductions, select from three description options, and set the element components (from the calculation rule) that the payslip displays.

If the component is not in the calculation, the check box is deselected and not available for selection.

Note: The amount always appears, so it is not an option here.
