Generation Control

Use generation control elements to control whether an element is resolved in the payroll process. To define a generation control element, you must specify the criteria that have to be met before the element is processed, based on such factors as an employee's HR Status, the Processing Frequency, Segment Status, and so on.

For example, let's say that a payee is paid weekly and has a monthly medical deduction of 100 that is to be deducted only once a month. You define the Generation Control - Frequency parameters so that this deduction is taken out only on the first pay period of the month.
