Steps: Generate DSNs (FRA)

Steps: Generate DSNs (FRA)

Run a payroll calculation for the company of the declared establishments.
After each payroll calculation, you can generate a DSN with information on social contributions and payments to workers to report to French authorities.
Workday compares reported data against the standards from the government for data submission, and raises errors for any exceptions. You can also check for errors on nil declarations, replacements, or cancellations created as a manual DSN.
When generating DSNs, Workday only considers events or worker changes that occur after a worker's first payroll results in Workday. A worker's first payroll results are the first results for a regular run category for France, excluding payroll history results. Example: Workday only creates absence DSNs for time offs with a begin date after the worker's first payroll results.
  1. Access 1 of these tasks to generate DSNs:
    • Run DSN Preparation
      to generate DSNs immediately.
    • DSN Scheduler
      to schedule DSN generation either once in the future or on a recurring basis.
    Security:
    Process: DSN (Run) - FRA
    and
    Process: DSN (Submission) - FRA
    domains in the FRA Payroll functional area.
    Workday generates a DSN for each declared establishment of the selected DSN issuer that has a reportable event. Workday generates DSNs with the payroll results from the last regular run category. Workday also includes results from any run categories that share the same period schedule as the regular run category, regardless of the pay group.
  2. Access the
    DSN Contributions by Establishment
    report.
    Compare the payroll contribution calculations to the URSSAF amounts declared in the DSN. For AGIRC-ARRCO, compare calculated amounts by population type to the aggregated payroll amount declared in the DSN.
    Security:
    Process: DSN (Run) - FRA
    or
    Process: DSN for Pay Group (Run) - FRA
    domain in the FRA Payroll functional area.
  3. Access the
    DSN Benefits Contributions by Establishment
    report.
    Compare the declared benefit amounts by benefit plan and population with the aggregated payroll amounts.
    Security:
    Process: DSN (Run) - FRA
    or
    Process: DSN for Pay Group (Run) - FRA
    domain in the FRA Payroll functional area.
  4. To view raised exceptions, select
    DSN
    View Exceptions
    from the related actions menu of the DSN.
    You can view the source of errors in the
    Description
    or
    Worker
    columns.
    Workday verifies the basic data requirements such as length, regular expression, or required fields. Workday recommends that you use the DSN-val tool for other data controls.
    To view DSN exceptions for multiple DSNs, access the
    All DSN Exceptions
    report.
    Security:
    Process: DSN (Run) - FRA
    or
    Process: DSN for Pay Group (Run) - FRA
    domain in the FRA Payroll functional area.
  5. To view comptes rendus métiers (CRMs), access the
    View DSN Responses (CRM)
    report. The CRM 11 – Certificat de conformité /Bilan d'anomalies provides the same verifications as DSN-val.
    Security:
    Process: DSN (Run) - FRA
    or
    Process: DSN for Pay Group (Run) - FRA
    domain in the FRA Payroll functional area.
  6. Correct any missing or incorrect data in Workday.
  7. (Optional) When you can't correct the data or payroll result, you can manually override the generated value for most DSN blocks.
    1. In a DSN, click
      Preview
      or
      Preview Header
      to access the DSN block with the exception.
    2. Click
      Add Manual Entry for [DSN Block]
      .
      When you create a manual entry to modify a reportable value in certain blocks, you must also manually report the change. Example: You create a manual entry for block 40, then from block
      S21.G00.40
      , click
      Create S21.G00.41 - Changements Contrat
      to create the block that reports changes in contract information. You create a manual entry for block 30, then from block
      S21.G00.30
      , click
      Create S21.G00.31
      to create the block that reports worker information.

    domain in the FRA Payroll functional area.
  8. Access the
    Run Pay Calculation
    task to rerun the payroll calculation for the reported period.
    Security:
    Process: Run Batch Calculations (Pay Calculation)
    domain in the Core Payroll functional area.
  9. To set the status of monthly or termination DSNs to
    Ready for Submission
    , access the
    Run Pay Complete
    task before regenerating the DSN.
    Security:
    Process: Run Batch Complete (Pay Complete)
    domain in the Core Payroll functional area.
  10. Access the
    Run DSN Preparation
    task to regenerate the DSN.
    You can select the
    Only verify exceptions for workers with changes
    check box to limit the DSN verifications Workday does during the DSN preparation. When selected, Workday only verifies the generated data against DSN data requirements for workers:
    • Reported with exceptions during the previous DSN preparation.
    • With DSN manual entries.
    • With recalculated payroll results.
    • With new payroll-impacting events since the previous DSN preparation such as time off, collective agreements, and benefits.
    Security:
    Process: DSN (Run) - FRA
    and
    Process: DSN (Submission) - FRA
