Overview of Loading Payroll Relationship Details

Use HCM Data Loader to update payroll details for employees at the payroll relationship level.

Payroll relationships group a person's employment assignment records based on the payroll statutory calculation and reporting requirements. For example, you can update the overtime period for employees at their payroll relationship.

When an employee is hired, the application automatically creates the payroll relationship details. A person could have multiple payroll relationships if they're associated with more than one PSU or more than one payroll relationship type.

Element Duration Dates

The element duration dates at the payroll relationship level control the start and end date of earnings and deductions assigned to the employee's payroll relationship. Examples of payroll relationship elements include tax and social insurance entries.

See this table for various element duration dates.

Date	Description
First Standard Earnings Date	The date when standard earnings start accumulating. For example, the start date of the employee's record for the payroll statutory unit.
Last Standard Earnings Date	The date when standard earnings stop accumulating. For example, the termination date of the employee's record for the payroll statutory unit.
Last Standard Process Date	The last date of the payroll period in which the termination of the payroll relationship occurs.
Final Close Date	The last date the payroll run will include elements (which are set to use final close) for processing. This includes regular and supplemental payroll runs

You can't edit these element duration dates at the payroll relationship level. These dates are populated based on the date information at the assignment level.

For example, when Joe is terminated on 1-Mar-19, the application sets the last standard earnings date on his assignment record with this date.

As the figure shows, the same date cascades up to the last standard earnings date field at the payroll relationship level.
