Concept: Pay Component Related Calculations
You can configure Workday to automatically calculate related calculations as part of an earning or deduction. When you add a related calculation to an earning or deduction definition, Workday creates a pay component related calculation (PCRC).
Example: The
Hourly Pay
earning uses a calculation of Hours (unprorated) * Rate
, where Hours (unprorated)
and Rate
are related calculations. When you assign the related calculations to the earning, Workday forms 2 new PCRCs:- Hourly Pay - Hours (unprorated)
- Hourly Pay - Rate
To display hours on the
Actuals
tab of a worker's pay result, add the General Ledger: Hours
pay component group to any Hours
related calculation.When the pay component uses
Position
as a calculation worktag, Workday resolves the pay component separately for each valid position. To include positions the worker no longer holds, Workday recommends using a pay accumulation as the related calculation.
While pay component groups always filter by worktag, you can configure pay accumulations not to filter by worktag.
You can also use non-numeric related calculations in pay component calculations. You can choose from:
- Date type related calculations that return dates.
- Numeric, Boolean, and Text type related calculations that return numeric values.
You can’t change the input value type of a related calculation once the related calculation has been used in a pay component.
For Payroll for the U.S., you can’t use non-numeric related calculations for FLSA earning amounts.
