Reference: Payroll and Object Transporter
Things to Consider
For pay component related calculations:
- You must migrate them either before you migrate or as you migrate generic calculations.
- You must migrate pay component related calculations name changes before you migrate the pay component or as part of a configuration package that includes that generic calculation.
- When you remove optional values in your calculations, then migrate those objects to a new tenant where that value already exists, the empty value doesn't migrate. Workday recommends you wait to remove the optional values until after you migrate to the new tenant.
- When you migrate Advanced Lookup tables, you must adjust the effective date of an existing snapshot in the new tenant after migration.
You can't migrate snapshots later than today's date, only the most recent snapshot that is today's date or earlier.
When migrating earnings and deductions, ensure their package effective date is later than the earliest snapshot date.
When migrating tax authority exception pay component groups, the process won’t generate new earnings, deductions, or pay component groups that don’t already exist in the target tenant.
