Why do payroll costing results differ for employees with the same position in the same department?

Results can vary if you allocate costs to different accounts at the person costing or element entry level.

Use these steps to resolve your question:

  1. Identify which costing results vary for employees holding the same position in the department.

  2. Review the costing setup information for these employees on the Costing of Persons page to determine if costing setups exist for the elements whose costing results vary by employee. Confirm the setup is accurate.

  3. Review the costing information you entered for the element entries for the employees for that payroll run. Confirm the information is accurate.
