User Defined Codes for Payroll

Many fields throughout the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Human Capital Management systems accept only user defined codes (UDCs). You can customize fields in the system by setting up UDCs to meet the needs of the business environment.

UDCs are stored in tables that relate to a specific system and code type. For example, 07/PY represents system 07 (Payroll) and UDC type PY (Pay Cycle Codes). UDC tables define which codes are valid for the individual fields in the system. If you enter a code that is not valid for a field, the system displays an error message. For example, in the Pay Cycle field, you can enter only those codes that are included in UDC table 07/PY.

You can access all of the UDC tables through a single UDC form. After you select a UDC form from a menu, you can change the system code and UDC type to access another UDC table. The system stores UDCs in the User Defined Codes table (F0005). You can also print a list of all UDC tables to review.

You might need to set up some additional UDCs that are specific to the countries in which you conduct business.

Important: UDCs are central to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems. You must be thoroughly familiar with UDCs before you change them.

The following UDCs are used to track and process information in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll system.
