Understanding the View Payslip Self-Service Transaction

PeopleSoft Global Payroll enables employees to view their payslips online using View Payslip in ePay. The files used to view payslips are created when you run the Generate/Regenerate Payslip process. As part of the Generate/Regenerate Payslip process, the system launches a series of Application Engines that:

  • Gather information and create a temporary file to store payees' payslip data.

  • Create a PDF file from this data on which the payslip view is based.

If ePay is licensed, this process uses a utility to split the PDF file into individual PDF files for each employee. These individual PDF files are stored on a secure server.

Before you can set up the View Payslips transaction, you must:

  1. Set up a secure server and FTP to store the individual PDF payslip files.

  2. Identify the URL address for the server.

  3. Set up payslips.
