The country extension setting ensures that certain payroll-related
features work correctly in your implementation, such as element templates.
Use the Manage Features by Country or Territory
task to select the correct product for each of your legislations and
ensure that the appropriate features work correctly in your implementation.
To view and set the product extension:
-
Search for and start the Manage
Features by Country or Territory task.
-
Ensure the Selected Extension value is correct for the United States
legislation.
Valid values for the selected extension
parameter are:
-
Payroll
-
Payroll Interface
-
Human Resources or None
By default, the extension is set to Human Resources or None, which means no
payroll product is selected. If you plan to use payroll, you must
set the extension to the appropriate payroll setting.

Country Extension Settings
Here's what the different the country extension settings do for you.
Country extension |
What it does |
Payroll |
-
When creating elements, the element
templates generate formulas and other associated items that are required
for costing or payment processing when you process payroll.
-
The New Hire process performs automatic
actions, such as:
-
Creates a Tax Withholding card
for the new employee
-
Associates them with a tax reporting
unit (TRU) if the TRU was specified at time of hire
-
Validates address formats
-
Payroll definitions require associated
organization payment methods. You must select payment methods that
include a payment source.
-
Defining payment sources requires
source banks in Oracle Cloud Financials.
|
Payroll Interface |
-
The element templates for creating
regular and supplemental earnings elements generate associated objects,
such as input values, formulas, and balances. The Calculate Gross
Earnings process requires these objects to include employee data.
For all other elements, the simplified element templates
create only the element and no associated objects.
-
The New Hire process includes country-specific
validation.
-
Validations on payroll objects
are less restrictive to support sending employee bank info as follows:
-
No requirement for organization
payment methods in payroll definitions
-
No requirement for payment sources
in organization payment methods
-
No dependency on source banks in
Oracle Cloud Financials
|
Human Resources or None |
-
The element templates for creating
earnings and deductions elements generate only the elements and no
associated objects, such as input values, formulas, or balances.
You can configure these elements to meet your specific
business requirements, such as adding input values and formulas to
a compensation element.
-
Certain countries or territories
have additional country-specific validation.
-
Validations on payroll objects
are less restrictive, as with the Payroll
Interface setting.
