Allowances - T&A/RS(ii)

Use this tab page to instruct PayGlobal how to deal with an allowance from a Payroll viewpoint.

Field

Description

Period

The Action Clauses tab page needs to know which period to include as part of the clause that you construct. For example, an organisation needs to pay a maximum of 40 ordinary hours per week before overtime applies. The Period field will contain the weekly period code with the applicable maximum rule being specified on the Action Clauses tab page.

Consolidate transactions

This field is generally set to No. It shows how transactions are viewed in Time and Attendance. For example, if an employee is paid 8 hours per day over a 5 day period and the Consolidate transactions field is set to:
Yes: Transactions accumulate and are shown as one transaction in T&A. This would be displayed as 40.
No: Transactions are shown as daily values in T&A. This would be displayed as:
8 8 8 8 8

Payroll Allowance

The Payroll allowance that a T&A allowance is redirected to. This should be a different code to the T&A allowance. When an allowance is imported to Payroll, the code for the T&A allowance changes to the Payroll Allowance code selected in this field. However, Time and Attendance still uses the T&A allowance code.

Payroll type

This field classifies the allowance according to type. Select the appropriate Payroll type from the combo box, depending on the type of allowance.
Hours ordinary: All standard ordinary hours allowances.
Days worked: All days worked allowances.
Leave: All leave allowances.
Normal: Allowances such as 'Meal allowance' or 'Shoe allowance'.
Overtime: All overtime allowances.

Payroll export

Select 'Yes' to export this allowance from Time and Attendance to Payroll. Exceptions may be when recording times for Contractors or Temp Agencies when, although clocking times are used, these times should not be exported to Payroll but to the respective employer. Another exception could be for hidden counters.

Payroll consolidate transactions

This field is generally set to 'Yes' and controls how transactions are viewed in Payroll. For example, if an employee is paid 6 hours per day over a 6 day period and the Payroll consolidate transactions field is set to:
Yes: Transactions accumulate and are shown as one transaction in Payroll. This would be displayed as 30.
No: Transactions are shown as daily values in Payroll. This would be displayed as:
6 6 6 6 6 6

Payroll recalculate

Yes: Allows Payroll to recalculate the allowance.
No: Payroll does not recalculate the allowance.

Payroll class

This field is only used when the Company Settings | Rostering T&A | T&A | T&A Export Type field is set to 'MicroPay'.

Job costing export

Yes: T&A Jobs are exported to Payroll.
No: T&A Jobs are not exported to Payroll.
