Entering a New Cycle Change - What to enter for the Amount, Cost Code Lookup/Other, Alternate Rate and Batch No. fields? (copied)

Navigation: Payroll >>Process Payroll>>Cycle Changes

Amount

If the cycle change record is to change/enter an amount (e.g. for allowances, deductions, other income) then enter it in this field.

Cost Code Lookup/ Other

  • The list of default cost centers will be displayed for selection.
  • Use N/A  Not Applicable if cost centres are not used in the organization.  
  • Depending on the default location of the employee and the Account Segment Order the payroll will automatically generate a default cost centre code comprising the account segment codes linked to the organization levels and the earning, allowance or deduction code.  This field can be overwritten if required.

Payee Lookup

  • You can also enter a bank account number or bank name etc. depending on the change to be made (e.g. if P Pay Profile and BC Bank Change are selected, then enter the new bank (branch) code or enter zero (0) and press Tab to access the list of Branches for selection.

Alternate Rate

Enter a temporary override amount of the unit rate e.g. if an employee is to be paid an acting amount, enter it here to override the normal unit rate.  

The Alternate Rate field does not apply to ‘A ALLOWANCES, ‘D DEDUCTIONS’, ‘O OTHER INCOME or ‘P PAY PROFILE’ entries - enter 0.00 for these entries.

Batch No.

The batch number allows you to split the data entry process according to easily-identifiable batches i.e. you can have multiple persons entering and checking the data based on batches.

Enter a user-defined batch number (e.g. 01, 05, 67 etc.).  Maximum 2 numeric or alpha characters. e.g. This could be the initials of the person doing the data entry or the pay cycle number can also be entered.
