Understanding Piece Rate Item Masters Setup

Before you can process piece rate information in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll system, you must enter the pieces or items into the system. You use the Item Master program (P07916) to enter a record for each item or piece into the F06916 table. This table stores information that is specific to each item that is used for piece rate processing.

You can enter an item into the system multiple times if that item is measured or quantified using more than one unit of measure. For example, if some employees are paid according to the number of pieces of an item that they produce, and other employees are paid according to the number of pounds that they produce of the same item, you can enter multiple piece rate records for the item.
