Personal Calculation Cards for Bahrain

A calculation card captures values required for calculating and processing payroll deductions.

To support the Payroll Interface, you must create a Social Insurance calculation card for each person for whom payroll deductions are processed.

For payroll interface users, the calculation cards can be used to capture a set of data that they want to record in the HR system and then pass over to the third party payroll. Data to be recorded in the calculation cards is determined in each implementation, depending on customer needs. For payroll license customers instead, data to be recorded is driven by Fusion Payroll requirements since that data is the only source of information for payroll calculation.

Social Insurance Details Calculation Card

The social insurance calculation card is automatically created when the new hire process for an employee is completed, provided the employee citizenship information is specified. If the citizenship information isn't specified, then the social insurance calculation card must be created manually.
Note: The Employee Social Insurance Details calculation card component creates an element entry for the Social Insurance element. You have to create the element eligibility for this element before the calculation card is created.

Use the Calculation Cards task to review the automatically created card for a person:
  1. Log in to the application using payroll administrator or payroll manager user.
  2. Navigate to the Person Management work area, then search for an employee.
  3. Select Manage Payroll Calculation Information from the Actions menu (you can also navigate to the calculation card from the person record using the Calculation Cards task).

  4. Search for the cards available for this person. Check that the Effective As-of-Date is no earlier than the employee hire date.
