Setting Up Termination Versions

To define termination versions, use the Terminations (GPAR_TERM_ACTN_RSN) component.

This topic provides an overview of termination versions and discusses how to define termination versions.

Page Name

Definition Name

Usage

Termination Versions Page

GPAR_TERM_ACTN_RSN

Define termination versions and the qualifying actions and reasons for triggering termination pay.

Earnings/Deductions Page

GPAR_TERM_VERSION

Associate earnings and deductions with a corresponding termination version.

Global Payroll for Argentina groups the qualifying actions and reasons for making termination payments into termination versions. Different termination action and reason combinations trigger different sets of special termination earnings and deductions. To define termination versions and then trigger the payments associated with a termination version, you must do the following:

  1. Define your termination versions on the Termination Versions page.

  2. On the same page, define the associated actions/reasons that will trigger payment.

    Termination versions are the combinations of actions/reasons that cause a group of termination earnings or deductions to be processed.

  3. On the Earning/Deductions page, associate each earning or deduction with a corresponding termination version.

  4. On the Job Data pages in PeopleSoft HR, specify termination actions such as Termination, Completion, or Layoff as the action and enter a corresponding reason.

    When you specify a termination action as the action in combination with a qualifying reason, termination pay will be processed for the terminated or laid off employees—as long as the termination or layoff action/reason combination is recognized, by generation control, as valid for triggering termination payments.

Use the Termination Versions page (GPAR_TERM_ACTN_RSN) to define termination versions and the qualifying actions and reasons for triggering termination pay.
