Retroactive Entries Report

Run the Retroactive Entries Report to view the:

  • Element entries created by the Recalculate Payroll for Retroactive Changes process

  • Original calculations,

  • Retroactive entries generated by comparing the original result to the recalculated result

The report displays the number of payroll relationships and total retroactive result value by each element classification and by each element. The report also displays the number of payroll relationships and total retroactive result value by the original process that the recalculated results are compared with.

Submit the Run Retroactive Entries Report task from the Payroll Checklist or Submit a Flow page. You can also use the delivered Retroactive Payroll flow to automatically run the Retroactive Notification report, Recalculate Payroll for Retroactive Changes process, and the Retroactive Entries Report in that order.
