Making Additional Payments

Use the additional payments functionality that is part of off-cycle processing to make one-time unscheduled payments that are processed outside of the normal on-cycle payroll. Examples include one-time bonuses, awards, and expense reimbursements. These transactions are similar to manual payments in many respects; however, the system calculates the amount for additional payments. This method uses period-to-date logic built into the Mexican delivered statutory rules when calculating.

The following areas need to be considered when entering additional payments:

  • All earnings and deductions need to have period-to-date logic applied.

  • When selecting the period paid, it is recommended that you select the previous finalized calendar or the current open calendar.

  • This method is used to record monetary values only. Absence accumulators will not be updated.

Global Payroll for Mexico delivers an off-cycle configuration for additional payment off-cycle requests that you can use for bonuses not paid out. Define configurations for off-cycle requests on the Off-Cycle Configuration page. See Configuring Off Cycle Requests.
