Example: FLSA Adjustment (USA)
This example demonstrates how to use Workday to make an FLSA
adjustment.
During the payroll run for the work week 11/08 - 11/14, the payroll administrator realizes Robert
should have received a 600 USD bonus, but he received 500 USD. She
needs to pay Robert the 100 USD and apply it to the 11/01 - 11/07 pay period.
- Access theAdd Payroll Input by Workertask.
- Select the worker.
- Select theStart DateandEnd Dateof the pay period. (In this case, select the work week 11/08 - 11/14.)
- Select thePay Component. (In this case,Bonus.)
- Select theProcessing Defaults. (In this case,One-time, Adjustment, andRegular Run Category.)
- EnterCoverage Dates11/01 - 11/07.
- After clickingOK, enterInput Details:
- Type. (In this case,Amount.)
- Value. (In this case100.00.)
When the payroll administrator processes payroll for 11/08 - 11/14, Workday automatically
adjusts the overtime rate for the previous period 11/01 - 11/07. The on
demand adjustment displays the 100.00 USD gross for the FLSA bonus and the FLSA rate
difference:
FLSA Work Week | Hours | Rate (USD) |
|---|---|---|
11/01/15 - 11/07/15 | 3 | 54.95 without 100 bonus. |
11/01/15 - 11/07/15 | 3 | 58.43 with 100 bonus; a rate increase of 3.48. |
In some cases, the net of an FLSA adjustment could
be negative.
