Delivered Supporting Elements

This table lists the key supporting elements that are used to define the delivered earnings:

Element Type	Element Name	Used By	Where Used
Variable	TAX VR METHOD	This variable is a user field for all taxable earnings. It stores the tax method to use when an earning is calculated.	Supporting Element Override page. Values include: A - Annualized S - Supplemental C - Cumulative All delivered earnings except BONUS use the Annualized tax method (A). BONUS uses the Supplemental tax method (S).
Variable	TAX VR RPT TYPE	This variable is a user field for all taxable earnings.	Determines the year-end form—W2, W2PR, W2AS, and so on—on which an earning element is reported.
Variable	TAX VR STATE	This variable is a user field for all taxable earnings.	Determines the state or territory in which each earning is taxed.
Variable	ERN VR SHIFT GRP	ERN BR SHIFT DIFF ERN FM OVT RATE This variable is a user field for all earnings except SALARY, BONUS, COMPANY CAR, and HOLIDAY.	ERN VR SHIFT GRP is a search key in the bracket ERN BR SHIFT DIFF. Based on this key, the bracket returns the correct shift differential and percentage to the calculation rule of the earnings SHIFT - R and SHIFT PCT. ERN VR SHIFT GRP is used in the formula ERN FM OVT RATE to define the rate component for the earnings OVT 1.5, OVT 2.0, and PREMIUM.
Variable	ERN VR SHIFT ID	ERN BR SHIFT DIFF This variable is a user field for all earnings except SALARY, BONUS, COMPANY CAR, and HOLIDAY.	ERN VR SHIFT ID is a search key in the bracket ERN BR SHIFT DIFF. Based on this key, the bracket returns the correct shift differential and percentage to the calculation rule of the earnings SHIFT - R and SHIFT PCT.
Variable	ERN VR SHIFT D PCT	ERN BR SHIFT DIFF ERN FM OVT RATE	Bracket ERN BR SHIFT DIFF provides the value of the variable ERN VR SHIFT D PCT (this variable is the percent component in the calculation rule of the earning SHIFT PCT). Formula ERN FM OVT RATE uses the value of variable ERN VR SHIFT D PCT to calculate the Rate component for earnings OVT 1.5, OVT 2.0, and PREMIUM.
Formula	ERN FM RED SALARY	SALARY	Post process formula. Reduces SALARY earning by Absence and Holiday amounts.
Formula	ERN FM RED HRS/AMT	WAGES	Post-process formula. Reduces WAGE hours by Absence and Holiday hours.
Formula	ERN FM SALARY HOUR	WAGES	Unit component. Calculates standard hours.
Formula	ERN FM OVT RATE	OVT 1.5 OVT 2.0 PREMIUM	Formula calculates Rate components for the earnings OVT 1.5, OVT 2.0, and PREMIUM.
Formula	GEN FM SEG COUNT	WAGES	Counts the number of Units (hours) per segment
Formula	ERN FM SHIFT EXEC	ERN GC SHIFT EXC (generation Control) SHIFT - R SHIFT PCT	Controls whether to calculate shift pay.
Formula	ERN FM SHIFT D PCT	SHIFT PCT	Used to retrieve the shift differential percentage from the bracket table.
Formula	GP CHECK 1ST SEG	COMPANY CAR GP APPLY 1ST SEG (generation control)	Used by COMPANY CAR to restrict payment to the first segment of a period.
Bracket	ERN BR SHIFT DIFF	SHIFT - R SHIFT PCT ERN FM OVT RATE	Bracket provides Rate component to earning SHIFT - R. Bracket provides Percent component to earning SHIFT PCT by populating the value of the variable ERN VR SHIFT D PCT (this variable holds percent values returned by the bracket). Bracket provides shift differential to formula ERN FM OVT RATE, which calculates the Rate component for earnings OVT 1.5, OVT 2.0, and PREMIUM.
