Pay Element Group Configurations

Pay element groupings provide a common pay element description which enables global reporting across multiple payrolls. Pay element groups have to be set-up for a client tenancy before they can be assigned to a pay element. The system supports two levels of reporting, pay element group and sub-group, in addition each pay element is given payment type, e.g. employer to employee. 

1. The payroll action menu select pay element codes > Pay element group configurations

Pay element group assignment

The system lists all of the post-processing pay elements for the payroll, by assigning a pay element sub-group to a pay element, this automatically assigns the pay element group and payment type. When using the multi-period and multi-payroll transaction report, each employee transaction will include the pay element grouping. 

1. Export pay element group table to Excel.
2. Reset the changes made to the last save.
3. Set all remaining un-group pay elements to no grouping.
4. Click on drop down sub-group list to select the one for that pay element.
5. All pay elements require an assignment or no grouping, so when a new pay element is produced for a payroll it will appear in red, showing it needs to be assigned to a pay element group.
