Year-End Processing Features

Payroll year-end processing includes the following features:

• Processing control. The system controls processing for year-end forms through procedures that are very similar to the payroll cycle. The first step in the processing cycle, processing the year-end workfile, creates the information that the system uses in each of the subsequent steps.

• Error checking. You specify parameters, which the system uses to perform integrity tests and to audit your data for errors. To minimize errors, JD Edwards World intentionally limits your responsibilities.

• Flexibility. You specify your own reporting rules and decide how to manage information at the company and tax-identification level using special handling codes.

• Control reporting. You can verify how the system derives the numbers that it uses through the use of online reviews and summary reports.
