Segmentation

You can segment components of pay based on events such as changes to compensation, employee status, or a job during a pay period. For example, you can set up the system to trigger segmentation of earnings results on the payslip when a change occurs to an employee's job data in PeopleSoft HR.

PeopleSoft Global Payroll provides two types of segmentation:

• Period segmentation (full segmentation).

• Element segmentation (slice segmentation).

Period segmentation occurs when more than one gross-to-net calculation is required. Element segmentation occurs when employee data changes in midperiod, requiring the affected elements to be calculated on either side of the date of change.

In Global Payroll for China, period segmentation occurs as a result of:

• Company changes.

• Pay group changes.

• Pay system changes.

• Employee actions, such as hires, terminations, transfers, and additional jobs.

Element segmentation occurs as a result of:

• Pay rate changes.

• Standard hours changes.

• Department changes.
