Steps: Ignore ROE Events

Steps: Ignore ROE Events

Security:
Process: ROE (Create Data) - CAN
domain in the CAN Payroll functional area.
You can ignore ROE-triggering events when you determine an ROE isn't required. When you update an ROE event to be ignored, Workday automatically deletes the associated ROE. Ignoring an ROE event:
  • Eliminates the need to manually delete the ROE or guessing which ROEs to delete.
  • Prevents accidentally issuing the ROE.
  • Prevents Workday from creating the ROE again.
  1. Access the
    Ignore ROE Events
    task.
  2. As you complete the task, consider:
    Option Description
    ROE Event Initiated On Date (From) / (To)
    The date the business process for the ROE event initiated.
    If you only enter a date in the
    ROE Event Initiated On Date (From)
    field, Workday returns all initiated events as of that date and forward. If you only enter a date in the
    ROE Event Initiated On Date (To)
    field, Workday returns all initiated events as of that date and backwards. For the best performance, add dates in the
    ROE Event Initiated On Date
    fields and restrict the date range to 6 months or less.
    Example: A worker’s last day worked is August 8. Their manager initiated the business process for their leave August 21 (the business process is still
    In Progress
    ). You enter
    August 8
    and
    August 18
    in the
    From
    and
    To
    fields. The ROE leave event doesn't display in the
    Ignore ROE Events
    report since the business process was initiated after the
    To
    date (August 18).
    For performance purposes, Workday populates the dates in these fields to a 1 week period of time as of the current date. You can change these dates as needed.
    Exclude ROE Event
    Workday excludes this event as an interruption of earnings.
    If the worker experiences another interruption of earnings, the next ROE that Workday creates includes earnings as the first day insurable earnings were paid to the worker or after the last interruption of earnings.
    Block 15C (Insurable Earnings Detail) includes earnings paid during the employment period of the ignored event.
    Include ROE Event
    Workday includes this event as an interruption of earnings.
    If the worker experiences another interruption of earnings, the next ROE Workday creates will include earnings paid after the last interruption of earnings.
    Select if you completed the ROE event but issued the ROE directly with Service Canada.
    Block 15C (Insurable Earnings Detail) doesn't include the earnings paid during the employment period of the ignored event.
    Comments
    You can enter comments when you ignore an event if you want to record the reason for ignoring the event. Limited to 1,000 characters. If you ignored an event but want to correct the comments, access the
    Ignore ROE Events
    task again to change the comments.
  3. Review the rows in the grid, and remove any rows for the ROE events you don't want Workday to ignore.
  4. Review the ROEs in each grid:
    Option Description
    ROEs to be Deleted
    By ignoring these ROE events, Workday deletes the In Progress, In Error, and Not Required (No EI Earnings) ROEs.
    ROEs to be Reviewed
    ROEs with Approved, Issued, or Amend status. Before ignoring these ROEs, review them to determine if you need to correct them. Workday won’t delete these ROEs.
Workday deletes the associated ROEs and marks the event as Ignored. Workday won't create an ROE for the ignored event.
If you ignore an event but determine later that you need to create and issue an ROE, use the
Cancel Ignore ROE Events
task. After you run the
Cancel Ignore ROE Events
, Workday puts the ROE event back into ROE processing.
