Off Cycle Batch Processing
With off cycle processing, the system automatically suspends affected payees from other runs in which they are active so that they can be included in the off cycle process. (A payee can only be active in one run at a time.)
Here's what the system does when you submit an off cycle request:
-
Checks whether the payee is associated with an open calendar group.
-
If yes, suspends the payee in the calendar group so that the payee can be calculated immediately in the off cycle group.
Note:
If the Calculation status is set to Frozen, the system suspends the payee in the off cycle calendar group.
Transaction processing varies depending on the type of off cycle request being processed.
Corrections
Off cycle corrections are based on retroactive processing similar to the retroactive corrections that take place during on cycle runs.
-
A trigger must exist on or before the period end date for the calendar being corrected or reversed.
-
The type of correction is replacement which replaces an existing absence run.
-
The type of retroactive method is Forced Corrective.
-
New calendars are created and will be processed. :
Advances
For advances, calendar groups are processed with the applicable calendars. Batch processing follows the same logic as on cycle processing.
