Consolidation Groups
A consolidation group enables you to process the results of more than one payroll run in a single action. It's a grouping of payroll runs within the same period for the same payroll.
Use them to produce one set of:
-
Results
-
Reports
-
Costing groups
These are runs you make in addition to your regular payroll runs. For example, use a consolidation group to make supplemental payments to a group of employees who quit the organization.
When you use the Payroll Definitions task to create a payroll, you assign it a default consolidation group.
There are no predefined consolidation groups, so you must create them yourself.
