Concept: Company-Specific Contributions (FRA)

Concept: Company-Specific Contributions (FRA)

You can create deductions for contributions with calculations that are specific to your company. To ensure that Workday includes your company's contributions in statutory calculations and DSN reporting, consider these recommendations.

Deduction Codes

Workday uses the code ending to determine where to display employer and employee deductions on the payslip and payroll results. Workday displays:
  • Deductions ending in
    _EE
    in the Employee column.
  • Deductions ending in
    _ER
    in the Employer column.
To display employer and employee deductions on the same line in the payslip, use the same code for both deductions, except for the _ER and _EE ending.

Contingency Contributions

When creating contingency contributions, use these pay component groups to ensure that Workday correctly calculates and reports contributions for:
  • Contingency funds.
  • Health care funds.
  • Supplementary retirement funds.
Type of Contribution
Pay Component Groups
Health care fund - EE
FRA Contributions to Health Care Funds EE - [FRA]
Health care fund - ER
FRA Contributions to Health Care Funds ER - [FRA]
Contingency fund - EE
FRA Contributions to Contingency Funds EE - [FRA]
Contingency fund - ER
FRA Contributions to Contingency Funds ER - [FRA]
Supplementary retirement - EE
FRA Contributions to Supplementary Retirement Funds EE - [FRA]
Supplementary retirement - ER
FRA Contributions to Supplementary Retirement Funds ER - [FRA]
For some replacement incomes, you can use these pay component groups to configure the taxable wages used in the contribution in excess calculations for supplementary retirement contributions:
  • FRA Adds to Reference Taxable Wages – Supplementary Retirement Contributions (FRA)
  • FRA Subtracts from Reference Taxable Wages – Supplementary Retirement Contributions (FRA)

Other Contributions

For all contributions that aren't in a contingency contribution pay component group, add them to the
FRA Employee Statutory Contribution
pay component group.

Tax and Contribution Bases

When creating company-specific contributions, use Workday-delivered pay component groups to ensure that Workday includes them in the appropriate taxable bases:
Examples:
  • FRA Adds to CSG/CRDS Base without Exemption [FRA]
  • FRA Adds to Salary Tax Taxable Base [FRA]
  • FRA Adds to Social Lump Sum Taxable Base at 8%
  • FRA Adds to Social Lump Sum Taxable Base at 20%
  • FRA Payslip - Health Insurance [FRA]
  • FRA Statutory Taxes ER [FRA]
Add any statutory taxes that are deductible from tax to the
FRA Statutory Taxes EE - Deductible from Tax - Excluded from Gross Up
pay component group. Workday excludes these taxes from gross-up calculations. Workday recommends that you subtract the
FRA Statutory Taxes EE - Deductible from Tax - Excluded from Gross Up
pay component group from all net pay accumulations. This ensures that the payroll calculation resolves all applicable employee statutory taxes that are deductible from tax.

Statutory Taxes

Ensure that you include any company-specific contributions in the pay component groups configured for your run category. Example:
FRA Statutory Taxes ER [FRA]
