Reposting Tax Area Information

You repost tax area information to create a table of PDBAs by province and tax ID. It is important to repost to this table before you begin the year-end processing cycle. You use this table to cross-reference payroll amounts to specific boxes on year-end forms. When you repost, you also ensure that the system posts all PDBAs properly and that no PDBAs were missing during the year.

The repost program reads data from the Deduction, Benefit, and Accrual Detail History File table (F0619) and reposts the amounts to the Tax Area Transaction Summary History table (F06148). The F0618 table contains all of the time entry records for the year. The F0619 table contains all of the deduction, benefit, and accrual information.

To repost, you must set up the following two DREAM Writer programs:

  • Repost Tax Area Transaction History (P07148)

  • Repost Tax Area Transaction History (P07148A)

These two programs have identical names. Their unique program numbers differentiates them. You must set up the programs with identical DREAM Writer version names. The version names must begin with an alpha character.

Using two programs enables you to use data selection for both the F0618 and F0619 tables. You must submit Repost Tax Area Transaction History (P07148), and the system automatically runs Repost Tax Area Transaction History (P07148A).

Caution:

Depending on the size of the history tables, processing time for the repost programs can range from a few minutes to several hours. JD Edwards World software recommends you to run these programs during off-peak hours. In addition, you must not run any other payroll functions while the system is processing these programs.

The repost programs do not produce reports. You should check system messages to verify that jobs finished normally.
