View and Edit Archive Results

Because payslips and the Periodic Payroll Register Report use archived data, it's critical that the archive process completes successfully and includes complete and accurate info.

You can view the results of the Archive Periodic Payroll Results process on the Person Results task. You can also edit archived data, if your user privileges and the restrictions are in place.

View the Archive Results

Use the Archive Results section on the Person Results task to view a summary of archived results and drill down to view individual archived records.

Archive results include prepayment information used to generate payslips as well as prepayment information for external payments. Use archive results to determine errors, unprocessed assignments, or missing records. If errors are found, review the employee's HR or payroll data, determine the cause and correct. After you have resolved the errors, roll back the affected processes and rerun them.

Edit the Archive Results

By default, the extract definition for the payroll archive doesn't allow editing of the output. However, if your environment and your security privileges enable this task, you can use the Edit button in the Archive Results section of the Person Results task. The task stores any changes to the archived results in the archive table, which the Periodic Payroll Register Report and payment processes then use.

Note: Updates you make to the archive results would no longer match the original archive. For this reason, avoid manually updating the archive unless necessary. For any change you make to your archive, you must also update your payroll information. Your payroll information must be your source of truth.
