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.
  1. Access the
    Add Payroll Input by Worker
    task.
  2. Select the worker.
  3. Select the
    Start Date
    and
    End Date
    of the pay period. (In this case, select the work week 11/08 - 11/14.)
  4. Select the
    Pay Component
    . (In this case,
    Bonus
    .)
  5. Select the
    Processing Defaults
    . (In this case,
    One-time, Adjustment
    , and
    Regular Run Category
    .)
  6. Enter
    Coverage Dates
    11/01 - 11/07.
  7. After clicking
    OK
    , enter
    Input Details
    :
    1. Type
      . (In this case,
      Amount
      .)
    2. Value
      . (In this case
      100.00
      .)
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.
