Setting Up Pay Type Assignment for Employee Groups

Access the Classification/Pay Cross Reference Revisions form.

To assign pay types to business units:

  1. Click Add.

  2. On Classification/Pay Cross Reference Revisions, complete any of these fields to define the employee group to which you want to assign pay types:

    • Job Type

    • Job Step

    • Union Code

    • Business Unit

    • Shift Code

      Note: To create a default set of pay types, leave all of these fields blank.
  3. In the detail area of the form, enter the beginning pay type code in a range of pay types in the From Trans field.

  4. Enter the ending pay type code in a range of pay types in the Thru Trans field.

    Note: When you are entering a range of pay types to assign to an employee group, both the pay type in the From Trans field and the pay type in the Thru Trans field are included in the range and assigned to the specified group. If you do not want to enter a pay type range, you can enter the same pay type code in the From Trans and Thru Trans fields.
  5. Select a blank row in the detail area and repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have assigned all of the pay types for the specified business unit.

  6. Click OK.

    • Shift Code

      Enter a user-defined code (00/SH) that identifies daily work shifts.

      In payroll systems, you can use a shift code to add a percentage or amount to the hourly rate on a timecard.

      For payroll and time entry, if an employee always works a shift for which a shift rate differential is applicable, enter that shift code on the employee's master record. When you enter the shift code on the employee's master record, you do not need to enter the code on the timecard when you enter time. If an employee occasionally works a different shift, you enter the shift code on each applicable timecard to override the default value.

    • From Transaction (Trans)

      Enter the number and description of the PDBA that you want the system to use to calculate the corresponding PDBA. This number is the beginning number in the range that is the basis of the calculation.

    • Thru Transaction (Trans)

      Enter the number and description of the PDBA that you want the system to use to calculate the corresponding PDBA. This number is the ending number in the range that is the basis of the calculation.
