Payroll Processing

Before we start the Payroll Run. We need to assign the necessary element for the employee

For the normal payroll run we will include all the elements and process all the assignment
But under certain circumstance we may need

  • Include or exclude certain element or assignment
  • Include or exclude certain group of assignment
  • Include or Exclude certain classification of element

For the above conditions we may need to create an Assignment set or an Element set

Creating Assignment Set

Example for the use of assignment set is. We need to process the payroll for the night shift employees before the day shift employees as they need to receive the Pay advice the night before the rest
For complete details of setting up the Assignment set please refer the blog http://ramesh-oraclehrms.blogspot.com/2007/08/assignment-set.html
