  • Advance Pay element is assigned to employees who have requested an advance and serves as the key driver for processing the advance payment.
  • Advance Pay Calculator element.

  • Advance Adjustment element is used to offset any additional amounts to ensure net pay remains at zero.

    FieldDescription
    Calculation Method

    The default is Current Period. The current period’s net pay amount is treated as the advance value.

    You can set or change the default, minimum, and maximum values based on your requirements.

    If you use User Defined, create a custom fast formula named IRELAND_ADVANCE_PAY_CALC with the advance pay amount returned to PERIOD_ADVANCE_VALUE to capture customer specific logic to calculate the advance amount and recovered in the leave periods.

    Defer Other Payments

    The default is No indicating that additional elements (such as retro values or bonus) within the leave period will not be deferred.

    Select Yes to defer other earnings and deductions during the leave period and ensure net pay is zero.

    Periods to Advance

    The number of periods to advance pay, used for calculations. You can set the default, minimum, and maximum values based on your requirements.

    This will be displayed as an editable field on the Element Entries page in the Entry Values.

    Override Payment

    Enter an override payment amount rather than use calculated value.

    Create and use a validation fast formula to limit the usage for this payment. This will be displayed as an editable field on the Element Entries page in the Entry Values.

    Deduction Reference

    Application generated unique reference value. This will be displayed on the Element Entries page in the Entry Values as read only.
