Example of Loading Payroll Element Run Usage

Use the payroll element run usage object to identify how an element is used with the run type. Run types control the elements and payment types to process in a payroll run.

You can't change either the first effective start date or last effective end date for an existing payroll element run usage object. Create these objects with effective start dates on or before the start dates of other objects that refer to your payroll element run usage.
