Concept: Earning and Deduction Limits

You can define 1 or more limits for an earning or deduction.

To set multiple limits on pay components, create a pay accumulation that sums the limited pay components.

For position-based earnings or deductions (when

Position

populates the

Calculation Worktag

field), the limits apply to each position.

When you use the current period as the balance period, Workday applies all amounts towards the period limit. Example: You configure a limit on the employer match percentage for retirement plans. When you run payroll, some workers reach that limit in on-cycle payroll. Then, if you run on-demand bonus payments for those workers, Workday doesn't process further employer contributions. Conversely, if you run on-demand payments first for the workers, Workday applies the limit on those payments before on-cycle payroll.
