Sections

Sections are groups of elements that you add to a process list. Sections tell the system what elements to resolve when processing a payroll or absence run and the order in which to resolve them.

There are five types of sections:

• Standard, which is used for regular processing.

• Generate Positive Input, which is used to create positive input for a different calendar pay period.

• Payee, which is used to specify which elements should be processed and in what sequence, at the payee level.

  For example, you can create a payee section to process garnishments for a payee.

• Sub-Process, which is used for net-to-gross calculations and other iterative processes.

• Absence Take, which is used to process absences according to date order.
