Payroll Definitions for UAE

Payroll definitions contain calendar and offset information that determine when payments are calculated and used.

Using payroll definitions, you can specify payment frequency, processing schedule, and other parameters for a particular payroll. Payroll period types, such as weekly or monthly, determine the interval at which you pay employees. UAE employees are typically paid monthly.

Each payroll definition can be associated with only one payroll period type, and you must set up at least one payroll definition for each payroll period type that you use to pay employees. When you create a payroll definition, the complete payroll schedule is automatically generated, based on the selected payroll period type, any offsets or calendar adjustments, and the number of years that you specify. Once you have saved a payroll definition, you can assign employees to it on the Payroll Relationships page from Person Management work area.
