Overview of Loading Payroll Details

Use HCM Data Loader to load payroll information at the payroll relationship, payroll assignment records, and assigned payroll levels. For example, you can update the overtime period for employees either at their payroll relationship or assignment level.

A time period you specify at a lower level, such as assignment level, overrides a period at a higher level, such as payroll relationship.

This figure shows the payroll information for a person at the Payroll Relationship, Assignment, and Assigned Payroll levels.

Consider these examples that explain the various actions you can take using HCM Data Loader.

• You manage Carrie Smith who's a part-time temporary employee and is on weekly payroll. Starting one month from now, Carrie accepted an offer to become a full-time permanent employee in the same position. You can update Carrie's assignment record and transfer her to a payroll appropriate for a full-time permanent employee, such as monthly or semimonthly.

• Anthony has two assignment records, one on a weekly payroll and one on a monthly payroll. On 10-Jun-18, you terminated Anthony's assignment record on the weekly payroll. The termination process automatically set the last standard process date to the end date of the payroll period. Anthony's termination package specifies that he should receive compensation payments through the month of June. To ensure that he's paid on both weekly and monthly payroll through June, you change the LSPD on weekly payroll to 30-Jun-18.

• You wrongly assigned Sophie, who's a new hire, to weekly payroll instead of monthly payroll. Now, you can delete her weekly payroll record and add the monthly payroll record.
