After the GL interface setup is complete, these are the ongoing steps for each payroll cycle:

  1. Verify that the payroll is confirmed.

  2. Run the GL Interface process.

    You can run the GL Interface Application Engine process (PAYGL01) in one step or two separate steps:

    1. (Optional) Prepare the distribution without generating the HR accounting lines, then review and update the distribution in online pages.

    2. (Required) Generate the HR accounting lines.

  3. Publish the contents of the HR Accounting Line table to PeopleSoft General Ledger.

Note:

Payroll for North America does not subscribe to any post-processing messages that are published by PeopleSoft General Ledger.

The Review Distribution Option

You can view and update the distribution data in the Review Payroll Distribution component after running the GL Interface process with the Review Distribution before GL option selected.

Understanding the GL Reset Run Flag SQR Report Process (GLXRESET)

The system allows you to process only confirmed payrolls that have not yet had the GL Interface process run on them. When you run the GL Interface process, the system selects the GL Interface Run check box on the Pay Calendar table. If you must rerun the GL Interface process, you must first run the GL Reset Run Flag process. You can run the process only for payrolls that you haven't published to PeopleSoft General Ledger.

This process:

  • Deletes all rows on the HR Accounting Line table for the pay run ID that is specified on the reset process run control.

  • Deselects the GL Interface Run and GL Distribution Runcheck boxes on the Pay Calendar table for the pay run ID that you specified on the reset process run control page.

Note:

Running this process is necessary only if you have made a change that requires rerunning the GL Interface process. If you do not have to rerun the GL Interface process for the pay run ID, then you do not run this reset process.

The system processes both on-cycle and off-cycle information.

  2. Select the Run button to display the Process Scheduler page.

  3. Select the GL Interface (general ledger interface) check box and select the OK button to complete the process.
