Defining Fixed SDI

To define parameters for the fixed SDI process, use the Pay Groups MEX (GPMX_PARM_PYGRP) component.

GPMX_FIXSDI_PARM

Select the elements that contribute to fixed SDI and how they integrate for the fixed SDI calculation.

There are some minimum elements established by law that must contribute to fixed SDI. However, you can also select additional elements that contribute to fixed SDI. Examples of additional elements include those that are related to job data events, such as hiring and salary changes.

To define and run the fixed SDI process:

  1. Select additional elements that contribute to fixed SDI and define the integration parameters for these elements on the Fixed SDI page.

  2. When a new job data event occurs (hiring or salary changes, for example), a new payee SDI data row will be inserted automatically updating the payee fixed SDI data.

    It's also possible to run the fixed SDI calculation due to a minimum salary change or anniversary by running the mass SDI data update. For mass SDI updates, run the fixed SDI process on the Process SDI MEX page.

See Running the SDI Batch Processes.

See Running Social Security Reports.

Use the Fixed SDI page (GPMX_FIXSDI_PARM) to select the elements that contribute to fixed SDI and how they integrate for the fixed SDI calculation.

Field or Control

Description

Integrable Base

Select the integrable base for the element. Each element integrable base can be based on the whole base or a certain percentage of the daily rate, minimum wage, or SDI. Values are All, Daily Rate, Min Wage, and SDI. Depending on the integrable base selected, some of the following fields will appear or not, and should be filled out accordingly.

Lower Limit % (lower limit percentage)

Indicate the lower limit percentage of integration for the element.

Wage Zone

Select the wage zone for the lower limit percentage. Values are A Zone, B Zone, C Zone, and Payee Zone.

Upper Limit % (upper limit percentage)

Indicate the upper limit percentage of integration for the element.

Wage Zone

Select the wage zone for the upper limit. Values are A Zone, B Zone, C Zone, and Payee Zone.
