Usage

Create Recipient File HKG Page

GPHK_RCP_RUNCTL

Generate your recipient payment file. This process stores recipient IDs that should be included during the EFT process for the recipient payment.

Recipient Payment Report HKG Page

GPHK_RCP_RUNCTL

Generate the Recipient Payment report, which contains details of amounts collected from employees on behalf of a recipient. The report lists the same details that are written to the electronic file (generated for recipients).

It is common for organizations to transmit a file to a recipient so that they can update their records. For example an organization might pay a recipient weekly and, at the end of the month, deliver a file with all of the payment details. Recipients generally specify the information that they want and the report file layout. After you create the file layout, link it to the recipient on the Deduction Recipients HKG page.

You can select the appropriate file layout from those that you created in PeopleSoft Application Designer for the electronic data (report) files that you submit to your recipients. When you run the creation process, the system creates the file in the layout that you specify here.

PeopleSoft supplies a sample file layout for the recipient file template, GPHK_RCPNT_FILE.

Important! The Application Engine program GPHK_RCPFILE is written to process only the GPHK_RCPNT_FILE recipient schedule file. You can make minor changes to that file, for example field order, but if you make major file layout changes you will need to create additional Application Engine programs to process them.

Use the Create Recipient File HKG page (GPHK_RCP_RUNCTL) to generate your recipient payment file.

This process stores recipient IDs that should be included during the EFT process for the recipient payment.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Create Recipient File HKG page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Create Recipient File HKG page

Field or Control

Description

Debit Date

Enter a date to initiate the process. The process retrieves all recipient payments for which the debit date in the GP_PAYMENT result table equals the debit date that you entered on the Create EFT Payment File HKG page.

The system extracts payment data for which the deposit date equals the date that you enter here.

Recipients List

Field or Control

Description

Recipient ID

Enter one or more recipient IDs to restrict the number of recipients being processed and reported.

Note: This page should contain the same values that you entered for the generation of the file for bank transfer. A different set of values can lead to generating a file with a totally different set of information. For example, if you ran the bank transfer with a payment date of March 31, 2007 and the recipient payment file is generated for February 28, 2007, the results are not the same. You should use the same run time parameters.
