Set up GL ChartField parameters that enable you to remap ChartFields after you run the initial Calculate process. You can configure and maintain GL remapping data. Enables you to set up different levels of ChartFields based on GL groupings codes or accounts.

Global Payroll for Mexico enables you to define ChartField remapping data used during the General Ledger (GL) interface process and post payroll costs to differing levels of ChartFields based on GL groupings codes or accounts. You set up GL ChartField parameters that enable you to remap default ChartFields after you run the initial Calculate process. For example, you might require that a higher level of ChartFields be attached to each of your cost centers. Instead of using multiple departments for each cost center, you may require one department at a global ChartField level, which covers all departments. By remapping the departments to the one global department you are able to roll costs from the various cost centers into this one department. For instance, perhaps you want to charge parking to facilities independently of an employee's department.

Use the GL Chartfield Remapping MEX page (GPMX_GL_MAP) to set up GL ChartField parameters that enable you to remap ChartFields after you run the initial Calculate process.

You can configure and maintain GL remapping data. Enables you to set up different levels of ChartFields based on GL groupings codes or accounts.

Chartfields

ChartFields represent attributes of a payee, such as department, pay group, company, employee ID, etcetera. When you send a payee's earnings, deductions, or accumulator amounts to General Ledger, you can also transmit the values that are associated with your specific combination of ChartFields for the payee.

Field or Control

Description

Chartfields to be passed to GL

A field appears for each ChartField that you set up on the Mapping page in Global Payroll. Use the specific ChartFields check boxes to prevent the system from sending particular ChartFields to the GL. During mapping, ChartFields can be used to cost to different account codes. You can then elect not to send the ChartFields to the GL and only send the values to the accounts. When integrating Global Payroll with General Ledger, you can remap ChartField values to a business unit's GL account numbers. To enter the new, remapped ChartField value, use the Transformed Values tab.

Chartfield Transformations

The default ChartFields values appear in the fields on the ChartFields tab. To remap the default settings, select the new values on the Transformed Values tab.

Chartfields and Transformed Values

Field or Control

Description

Account

Displays the GL account number to which your ChartFields and grouping codes will map.

Grouping Code

Select the code to map to the GL account. This is the grouping code for the elements that are included in the GL transfer. A grouping comprises entry types of earnings, deductions, or segment accumulators. Elements must be in groups before they can be processed by General Ledger. Instead of entering earnings individually, you bundle them into one accumulator and create a grouping code for that accumulator.
