Element Processing Sequence

You can set a predefined sequence in which a payroll run processes elements.

An element's primary classification defines a default processing priority for the element in payroll runs.

Most classifications also have a priority range. You can override the default processing priority. To set the priority, edit the element on the Element Summary page. Setting a specific priority establishes the order in which the element processes compared to other elements in the classification.

Sometimes you might need to prioritize the processing of certain element entries for an individual person.
