Process
These processing options specify values for processes related to benefits, intercompany settlements, components, and premiums.
- 1. Benefits
Specify how the system processes benefits and accruals when it posts journal entries for timecards. Values are:
0: Do not calculate any benefits or accruals.
1: Calculate only non-monthly benefits and accruals.
2: Calculate monthly and non-monthly benefits and accruals.
Enter this value only when you are processing the last timecards for calendar month. The system uses the month that corresponds to the general ledger date.
Non-monthly benefits and accruals are those for which you entered M in the fifth Pay Period of the Month processing option on the Basic DBA Information form (W059116E). An M in this processing option indicates that the system calculates the benefit or accrual during daily timecard post.
Monthly benefits and accruals are calendar-month DBAs, including those that are non-monthly, that have these characteristics:
They are set up to calculate for the employee for an entire calendar month.
They have a value of 2 or blank in the Limit Method field on the Advanced DBA Information form (W059117A).
- 2. Intercompany Settlements
Specify whether you want to process intercompany settlements when you post timecard journal entries. Values are:
1: Process intercompany settlements.
When processing intercompany settlements, the system uses the general accounting constants and the company number on the timecard.
0: Do not process intercompany settlements.
This processing option applies only when the journal type IC is set up in the Debit/Credit-Accruals Clearing table (P069041).
- 3. Components
Specify how to post timecard journal entries for equipment time when the equipment is used to build an item that comprises multiple components. Values are:
1: Distribute equipment time billed from the parent item to its components.
0: Bill equipment time to parent item only.
In the Asset Master table (F1201), you define the parent/child relationship between parent items and their components. You enter billing rates for the components in the Equipment Rates table (F1301).
- 4. Premiums
Specify how you want to update the F0911 table for premium labor entries. Premium labor entries are entries for pay types that have a pay type multiplier greater than 1. Values are:
1: Update.
Select this option when you want journal type PR to include labor hours in the Units field.
0: Do not update.
Select this option when you want only journal type LD to include labor hours in the Units field.
This processing option applies only when the Debit Burden/Premium Labor Distribution table setup (P069042) includes these characteristics:
The journal type PR has been added to the table.
The company burden rules are set up to separate the premium portion of a pay type from the regular portion.
- 5. Summarization Rules
Specify how journal entries are created and printed. Each account number has a summarization rule defined for it in the Journal Summarization Rules program (P06914). This processing option enables you to override the summarization code to a type 6 so that you can see the journal entries in the highest level of detail possible. Values are:
1: This option overrides any summarization rules, making the summarization code a type 6. Select this option when you want the journal entries to be created and printed in full detail.
0: This option is the default value, so the system uses the predefined summarization rule.
- 6. Hours Only Timecards
Specify which effect on general ledger codes (set up in a PDBA) create T2 and T4 entries for timecards that include hours worked, but do not include a recharge amount. Values are:
0: Effect on general ledger codes must be H.
1: Effect on general ledger codes can be H or N.
T2 entries are created for all record type 1 or 2 timecards with hours worked. T4 entries are created for all record type 2 or 3 timecards with hours worked.
- 7. Equipment Asset Number on T5 Debit Entry
Specify whether to include the equipment worked asset number (EQCG) on the debit entry (ED) of the equipment distribution journal entries (T5). This processing option is valid only when an asset ID exists in the Equipment Worked field and when no value exists in the Equipment Worked On field on the employee's time card. Values are:
Blank: Do not use asset number.
1: Use asset number.
