Rollover Processing During the Payroll Cycle

To simplify rollover processing and to ensure that the system rolls over all DBA balances at the appropriate times, you might want to run rollovers during payroll processing. To run rollovers during the payroll cycle, you must set up pay cycle reports to include the Leave Balance Rollover program (R073910).

When you run the Leave Balance Rollover program during the payroll cycle, the system automatically runs the program in proof mode. The system processes all employees that are included in the current payroll ID, and writes a rollover record for employees whose anniversary date falls within the payroll cycle. You can run Leave Balance Rollover during any of these steps in the payroll cycle:

  • Process pre-payroll

  • Print payments

  • Process journal entries

  • Process payroll cycle reports

You specify the step during which to run Leave Balance Rollover when you set up payroll cycle reports. You cannot run Leave Balance Rollover during the final update step, because during that step the system updates the F06147 table using the workfile records that were created when you ran the report in proof mode.

You cannot process standard year-end rollovers during the payroll cycle. Standard year-end rollovers must be processed between payroll cycles at year-end.
