If you have specified the employee citizenship in the Person Information during the new hire process, then this value is defaulted in the automatically created card. If you haven't specified the citizenship, you must create the calculation card using HCM Data Loader and update the citizenship information.
If the employee isn't registered for Social Insurance, even though a Social Insurance Number is available, the card is created. You can manually amend this information on the card. You can create these additional calculation component details, if required:
-
Social Insurance Contributory Salary Override
-
Social Insurance Contributory Salary Adjustments
Associations and Association Details
The calculation card is automatically associated to the default tax reporting unit (TRU), for which the payroll relationship is created. Keep in mind that you can associate the calculation card and all the employment terms with only one TRU. If more than one TRU is associated with the payroll relationship, the one flagged as the main TRU is used.
Element Entries
An element entry for the Social Insurance component is created automatically when the card is created, provided you have defined the eligibility for those elements and the employee meets the eligibility criteria.
