Overview of Global Payroll Interface Template
Use the Global Payroll Interface template to create and configure a ready-to-submit payroll interface that you can use to retrieve payroll information that a third-party payroll partner can use to process payroll.
-
Configure and implement the payroll interface easily
-
Select or deselect data elements to the interface and add additional information
-
Add filters to refine the data
Additional Information:
If you have additional data to be included in the interface then before using the template, use the Manage Global Payroll Interface Features Usage flow to configure additional data to the GPI interface. These are the information you can include:
-
Assignment Extra Information
-
Legislative Person Extra Information
-
Person Extra Information
-
Assignment Descriptive Flexfield
After you select any of these components, select the subcomponents for the component you have selected. The application makes available all the contexts that you have created under this subcomponent to the GPI template structure.
When you create and configure the payroll interface, this additional data is available under Business Objects. For example, if you have selected the Assignment Extra Information component and submitted the flow, all the contexts defined under Assignment Extra Information are listed under Business Objects, and the attributes defined for the selected component are listed under Attributes.
Extract Definitions
Use the Extract Definitions task in the Data Exchangearea to create and configure a payroll interface using the business objects and attributes configured into the GPI template and available for you to select. You can also use the additional information options included in the template. Select or deselect attributes as required by your payroll partner.
Use Filter Criteria to filter data as required. For example, you can choose your address format to include both or either of the home address and office address.
After you select the required business objects and corresponding attributes, and submit your configuration, the application generates a flow with the same name as the interface you have configured. The configured UI includes:
-
A valid structure
-
Compiled formulas

Refined parameters
-

Generated Flow
The generated flow retrieves the requisite data as per the business objects and the corresponding attributes you have configured and selected while creating the configured UI.
