Assigning DBAs to Employees

To assign DBAs to employees, you can:

  • Set up a DBA for all employees.

  • Assign DBAs to benefit plans and then enroll an employee in those benefit plans.

    The system automatically assigns to the employee the DBAs that are associated with those benefit plans.

  • Assign DBAs to a group of employees, such as the members of a union.

  • Assign specific DBAs to a single employee.

  • For single transactions, enter a one-time override DBA using time entry, one-time overrides, or from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne menu.

The system does not limit the number of DBAs that you can assign to each employee.

You can define the amount of a DBA:

  • When you set up the DBA.

  • At the group level.

  • At the employee level.

  • During one-time override entry.

You can override the amount at any level for any given payroll. The system uses the most specific amount to calculate the DBA for the employee. For example, the amount at the group level overrides the DBA setup, the amount at the employee level overrides the group setup, and the amount specified in a one-time override is used over all other amounts.
