Finalizing allowance payouts

Pending allowance payout records must be finalized before they can be interfaced to the payroll system. The Calculate Payouts action can create records in either Pending or Finalized status.

  1. Select Compensation > Pay Rate Processing > Allowances > Maintain Payouts.
  2. On the Pending tab, review, and optionally update the allowance records.
  3. To finalize any records, select the records, and select Finalized Payout.
    The records are moved to the Finalized tab where they can be picked up by the payroll interface action.

    When the payout record is finalized and the payment schedule for the employee’s primary work assignment has HR Payroll enabled, a time record is created in Approved status. The payout record is updated to Submitted To Payroll status. The time record can be accessed from the payout record.

    • If errors are displayed, the time record is not created and the payout record is set to Finalized With Error. After the error is corrected, the Submit To Payroll action can be taken to finalize the payout and create the time record.
    • For time records to be processed correctly, the pay code for the payout record must be set up with a calculation type of Do Not Calculate.
  4. After the payroll interface has been run, select the records and select Actions > Update To Submitted To Payroll to move the records to the Submitted tab.
