Legislative Data Groups for the US

You use legislative data groups (LDGs) to partition your payroll and related data. You need to have one LDG for each country where your enterprise operates, including the US.

You associate each LDG with one or more payroll statutory units (PSUs). Each PSU can belong to only one LDG.

Payroll-related info, such as elements, is organized by LDG. Each LDG:

• Marks a legislation in which payroll is processed.

• Is associated with a legislative code, currency, and its own cost allocation key flexfield structure.

• Is a boundary that can share the same setup and still comply with the local laws.

• Can span many jurisdictions as long as they're within the same country.

• Can contain many legal entities that act as PSUs.
