Prerequisites

Before you complete the tasks in this section, perform the following setup:

• If you are defining accruals for a Federal contract job, set up the business unit as a Federal Contract Job. You can do this in one of these ways:

  Use the Business Unit Constants program (P059051A) and select the Federal Contract Job check box for the business unit that you want to specify as a federal contract job.

  Use the Work With Business Units program (P0006) to set up a category code designated with a user-defined value that represents a federal contract job in the Business Unit Master table (F0006).

• If you are using the table calculation method for any of your rollup accruals, you need to define a calculation table corresponding to each sick pay accrual rate you will use. For example, if you have a sick pay accrual legislated rate of 1 hour per 30, you will need a table using Table Method OH (Hours Worked/Basis=Months) that defines a lower limit of zero, an upper limit of 999999999, and an Amt/Rate of .0333 (equals 1/30).
