PeopleSoft Global Payroll Documentation Structure

Like the application, the documentation for PeopleSoft Global Payroll consists of two parts: a core book and separate country extension books.

Core Documentation

Like the core portion of the application, which applies to all countries and enables you to develop rules and process a payroll regardless of location, the core book is country neutral. Thus, while it describes the core set of tools that you can use to develop a payroll, it doesn't discuss the local country rules that have been set up for you. For information about how PeopleSoft has extended core capabilities to meet local requirements, refer to the country extension documentation.

Country Extension Documentation

Just as country extensions in the application address local needs, the country extensions in the documentation cover local functionality. This includes:

  • Any core feature with local extensions.

  • Country-specific rule setup.

  • PeopleSoft-delivered rules and tables.

  • Country-specific pages.

  • Country-specific reports.

  • PeopleSoft Human Resources (HR) setup, such as bank definitions, that varies by country.

  • Implementation information that varies by country.
