Triggers

Triggers are used to detect online changes to data that should result in some type of system action.

Global Payroll provides three types of triggers:

• Iterative

  Tells the system to process (or reprocess) an employee in the current period. In Global Payroll for China, an iterative trigger must be defined for each table containing retroactive or segmentation triggers.

• Segmentation

  Tells the system to segment a period or element. PeopleSoft Global Payroll delivers a full segmentation and an element segmentation event with Global Payroll for China.

• Retro

  Tells the system to perform retroactive processing. PeopleSoft delivers the forwarding processing retroactive event with Global Payroll for China.
