Balance Types for Bahrain

Balance types predefined by Bahrain localization are listed in the Balances Spreadsheet: Oracle_Fusion_HRMS_BH_Payroll_Balances.xlsx on My Oracle Support (MOS).

These are the balances that affect payroll calculation and that are likely to be fed by elements created in the implementation phase.

Gross Earnings

Balance Gross Earnings collects all the gross earnings applicable for Bahrain and is fed by 3 primary classifications:
  • Standard Earnings
  • Supplemental Earnings
  • Absences

    All elements created at the implementation level with these primary classifications feed this balance.

Social Insurance

The balance Subject to Social Insurance collects all the earnings that are liable to Social Insurance and fed by the subclassification Subject to Social Insurance.

This subclassification is associated by default to earnings with primary classification Standard Earnings and Information and so all elements created in the implement phase with these primary classifications feeds this balance.

The value of this balance is used as contributory salary if the same is not overridden.

Balance Contributory Salary is used as a base in the contributions calculations. Subject to Social Insurance is designed to store the earnings that make up the contributory base, but for private sector the base can be overridden or adjusted so, eventually, if there is no override or adjustment balance, contributory salary balance is equal to balance Subject to Social Insurance, otherwise it will account for the override or adjustment.

Net Pay

During the payment process, the net pay balance is used to store the amount to be transferred as remuneration for the payee. A net pay balance, named Net Pay, is predefined for BH, and no additional setup is required during the implementation phase.
