Run the Festive Advance Posting/Unposting process.

After you have reviewed the festive advance payment amounts in HR, you can post the festive advances to Global Payroll. The GPSG_FA_POST AE (festive advance) posting process enables you nominate the calendar to which the payments are to be posted, and to copy the festive advances from the FA Payments table into the Global Payroll Positive Input tables. After payments are posted to Positive Input, the status of the festive advance payments is updated to prevent reposting. An unpost option included in the festive advance posting process also enables you to delete the posted advances from specified calendars on the Positive Input tables, provided the pay has not already been finalized.

Note: Only calendars that have not already been finalized are allowed. If the calendar is already calculated, iterative triggers are created.

On the Post/Unpost FA page, when the processing type is post, and the status is Approved, the GPSG_FA_POST AE (festive advance) posting process enables you to copy the festive advances from the FA_PAYMENT table into the Global Payroll Positive Input tables. If the calendar is open, and a trigger doesn't already exist, an iterative trigger (GP_ ITER_TRGR) row is created and the FA_PAYMENT row status is updated to Posted.

When the processing type is Unpost, and the status is Posted, the unposting process changes the row status of the FA_PAYMENT table to Approved.
