Paysheet Page Messages
Paysheet pages display messages that might appear for each pay earnings on the paysheet. The messages indicate either the status of the pay earnings, or what the pay earnings represent.
Normal Payroll Processing Messages
The following table lists typical payroll processing messages:
| Message | Explanation |
|---|---|

No Message |
The standard message indicates that nothing unusual has happened. |
|
Partial Period |
Indicates that the employee was not active for the entire pay period, or that the employee's Job record was updated with an effective date that falls between the pay period begin and end dates. |
|
Pay Data Change |
Indicates that one or more of the employee's records was updated since the last time you ran the Pay Calculation process. If you haven't already recalculated the employee's pay, the system recalculates it the next time you run the Pay Calculation process. To select all employees whose pay data changed and requires recalculating, select the Calculation Required value in the Job Pay Data Change field on the Payline Update/Display page. Entering Y in the same field selects all employees whose pay was recalculated due to a change in one of their pay-related records. |

Indicates, for employees who received a Pay Data Change message, that a change was made to their Job records with an effective date falling between the pay period begin and end dates, and they have already been recalculated. |
