Pay summary groups
A pay summary group combines one or more pay codes for these purposes:
- To store pay history
- To determine how taxes on pay are calculated
- To determine the description of pay that is displayed on payments and reports
- To define parameters for Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime calculation
- To define the tax reporting form associated with United States pay
- To define the type of tip pay for a tipped payment
To define the pay codes that belong to a pay summary group, you attach each pay code to a pay summary group. Each pay code can be attached to only one pay summary group, but a pay summary group can be attached to multiple pay codes.
