If you have specified the employee citizenship in the Person Information during the new hire process, then this value is defaulted in the automatically created card. If you haven't specified the citizenship, you must create the calculation card manually and update the citizenship information.

Association and Association Details

The calculation card is automatically associated with the default tax reporting unit (TRU) of the employee payroll relationship's payroll statutory unit (PSU). You can associate the calculation card and all the employment terms with only one TRU.

Autoindirect Elements, Element Eligibility, Element Entries

Autoindirect elements are predefined for triggering social insurance and gratuity calculations. The element eligibility for these Autoindirect elements must be defined during implementation. This is a one-time activity.

An element entry for the Social Insurance component is automatically created when the card is created, provided that eligibility has been defined for those elements and the employee meets the eligibility criteria.

Edit the Calculation Card

Once the card has been created, you can view and update the card as needed. You can create the following calculation components using the Create Calculation Component Details option:

  • Setup GOSI Reference Range: Use the override amount to specify a social insurance contribution amount that's different from the social insurance balance, or the amount derived from the reference formula at the legislative level.

  • GOSI Reference Salary Adjustment: Use the adjustment amount to make any changes to the social insurance contributory salary amount.
