Generate HCM Rates Process

The Generate HCM Rates Process must be run before each payroll run.

Before each payroll run, you must run the Generate HCM Rates Process (ideally, combined with a process flow) in “Full” mode once to create entries in the Rates Values table for regular earnings that use rate definitions. The process interprets events such as salary increase and will calculate accurately the rate values for each proration. The MCR uses some of the proration calculatins performed by the HCM Rate process.

Note: Don’t run the HCM Rates prior to generating the MCR without also running the payroll. It’s very likely your MCR calculations and reporting will be incorrect as they will not reflect your payroll results.

For more information see Generating HCM Rates under Setting Up Pay Calculation Components in Implementing Payroll for the United Kingdom on the Oracle Help Center.

Generate the MCR

The Monthly Contributions Reconciliation or MCR report will consider:

  • Work relationships that start on, or before, the effective date, and
  • Assignments and calculation cards that partially or wholly overlap the period being reported. That is, they are active at some point between the first and last day of period in which the effective date occurs.

An assignment will be considered for inclusion only if both of the following exist:

  • A Role Identifier (assignment)
  • A Teacher Reference Number (person)
