Create Balance Definitions for Net-to-Gross Element

To set up the taxable benefits element for calculating the gross amount of benefit, appropriate balances must be visible during the element creation step.

You need to set up balance feeds for these balances:

  • Notional Pay
  • Notional Pay subject to PAYE for Gross Up
  • Notional Pay subject to PRSI for Gross Up
  • Notional Pay subject to USC for Gross Up
Navigation: My Client Groups > Compensation > Balance Definitions
  1. Search for and select Notional Pay balance in the appropriate LDG.
  2. Enter the effective date.
  3. Select balance feeds. Search for and select the gross up element.
  4. Select Pay Value for input value.
  5. Select Add for add or subtract.
  6. Repeat the steps to set up input values for the other balances listed above for your gross up element:
    • Notional Pay subject to PAYE for Gross Up
    • Notional Pay subject to PRSI for Gross Up
    • Notional Pay subject to USC for Gross Up
      Note: You can add any applicable feed to benefit balance, for example, voucher benefit balances or staff discounts based on your requirement.
  7. Go to Person Information > Element Entries. Search for and select the employee that requires the gross-up.
  8. Create the element entries.
  9. Enter the relevant amount in the Net field and save your changes.
  10. Run payroll.

Results:

The net pay remains the same as this is not affected by the gross up process. Check these balances where the grossed-up element will be added:
  • Notional Pay subject to PRSI
  • Gross Taxable Pay
  • USC Pay
