Implementing Payroll for India

To implement payroll, you must first understand payroll feature choices and concepts.

You can then plan your payroll implementation using the Oracle Functional Setup Manager. Functional Setup Manager enables rapid and efficient planning, configuration, implementation, deployment, and ongoing maintenance of the application through administration.

Payroll Feature Choices

As part of feature choices for payroll processing you need to:

  1. Select the correct country extension setting for India on the Features by Country or Territory page. The country extension setting ensures that certain payroll-related features, such as element templates, work correctly in your implementation. Select the Payroll extension.

  2. Select the appropriate precision for the currency of India where you're processing payroll.

  3. Set the currency of each country or territory where you're sending payroll data to a third-party payroll provider. However, don't select that country or territory as a feature choice.

Create an Implementation Project

You must create an implementation project for India to perform the setup tasks. Create a new project for India under Implementation Projects in the Setup and Maintenance work area. Select Workforce Deployment as the offering to get the relevant tasks for setting up enterprise structures.
