Employee Errors

These situations do not prevent pre-payroll from processing. However, you should investigate their causes and make any necessary corrections:

Situation

Description

Autopay Timecard in Error

The Master Business Function for time entry encountered an error when it created an autopay timecard for an employee.

Employee Locked to Another Payroll

An employee record that is included in pre-payroll processing is locked in another payroll cycle. To remove the lock, process the other payroll cycle through final update. If the employee's record is locked because of an error, reset the employee's record.

Employee Has Gross-to-Net Error

When the system calculated the payment for an employee, the gross wages minus the taxes and deductions did not equal the net wages. Use the Work With Employee Payment Review form or the Payroll Register report (R073012) to review detailed information about the error.

Employee Has Deductions Not Taken

When the system calculated the payment for an employee, insufficient gross wages were available to pay for all of the employee's deductions. Therefore, the system reduced or omitted one or more of the deductions.

Employee Has Deductions in Arrears

When the system calculated the payment for an employee, gross wages were insufficient to pay for all of the employee's deductions. Therefore, the system placed in arrears one or more of the deductions.

Employee Has Unprocessed Interim Payments

The system encountered an interim payment for an employee that had not been processed. The Interim Calculations program (R07280) might have terminated during processing. To process the interim payment, resubmit the interim payment for processing.

Job Does Not Qualify

One of these conditions occurred:

  • The pay start date that was entered for the employee is after the pay period ending date for the payroll cycle.

  • A pay stop date has been entered for the employee and this date is before the beginning date of the payroll cycle.

Terminated Employee Has Been Paid

One of the employees included in the payroll cycle has a pay status of Terminated. In some cases, this is a valid condition. Review the employee's record to determine whether the employee is supposed to receive a payment.
