How Terminations Affect Payroll Processing

Initiating a termination automatically sets dates that control when the person's element entries end. The effect date of a termination on payroll relationships and assignments depends on the type of termination and country or territory payroll relationship rules.

Entry Dates That Affect Processing

Element setup determines which element duration date is significant for a specific element. The termination process sets the end dates automatically.

Note: If a person has multiple assigned payrolls, the termination process sets the last standard process date for all active payroll records for each assignment to the latest date.

How Terminations Are Processed

When you terminate an assignment or entire work relationship, the application terminates the appropriate payroll records. The type of termination and the payroll relationship rule for the country or territory determines which payroll objects the process terminates.

Update Personal Payroll Information for a Termination

When you receive notification of a termination, perform these tasks either manually or as part of a payroll termination flow:

  • Update element entries, for example, enter severance payment details on the Element Entries page.

  • Verify termination dates and element duration dates on the Payroll Relationships page.

  • Update personal calculation cards to discontinue contributions to social security items on the Calculation Cards page.
