Geographies, Address Styles, and Country Extensions

To implement payroll, you must first understand payroll feature choices and concepts. You can then plan your payroll implementation using the Functional Setup Manager. Functional Setup Manager enables rapid and efficient planning, configuration, implementation, deployment, and ongoing maintenance of the application through administration.

Payroll Feature Choices

As part of feature choices for payroll processing you:

• Select the correct country extension setting for each of your countries and territories on the Features by Country or Territory page. The country extension setting ensures that certain payroll-related features, such as element templates, work correctly in your implementation.

• Select the Payroll Costing Options to cost your payroll and the appropriate subledger accounting rules.

• Select the appropriate precision for the currency of each country or territory where you're processing payroll.

• Set the currency of each country or territory where you're sending payroll data to a third-party payroll provider. However, don't select that country or territory as a feature choice. Select the Payroll Interface extension on the Features by Country or Territory page.
