Verifying Payroll History

Before you create payment summaries, you should verify your payroll history. You use the AU Payroll History Audit Report (R75A7703) to verify that the payroll tax history that has been generated by the payroll cycle is valid and that it does not contain any errors. This report can be run for a specific calendar year and month, or you can run the report without specifying a date to verify all existing payroll history. You can verify payroll tax history, payroll payment history, or both types of history when you run the report. You can also choose to run the report for a specific company.

When you verify tax history, the report compares data from summary tax history tables to the corresponding detail tax history tables and determines whether any discrepancies are in the data. The report compares data in these tax tables:

  • Data in the F06136 is compared to data in the F06166.

  • Data in the F06145 is compared to data in the F0719.

  • Data in the F06146 is compared to data in the F0618 and F0719.

When you verify payment history, the report compares data from summary payment history tables to the corresponding detail payment history tables and determines whether any discrepancies are in the data. The report compares data in these payment tables:

  • Data in the F06156 is compared to data in the F06166.

  • Data in the F06156 is compared to data in the F0618.

  • Data in the F06156 is compared to data in the F0719.

Note: Oracle recommends that you run this report frequently to verify that all payroll history data is accurate and valid. Oracle also strongly suggests that you run this report and correct all errors before submitting any payroll or tax data to government reporting agencies.
