Concept: Payroll Input on Payroll Results

Workday enables you to add a payroll input directly on a worker's payroll result using the
Add Payroll Input
task (secured to the
Worker Data: Payroll (Payroll Input)
domain).
Workday:
  • Initially displays a simplified task with only the required and most commonly used fields. Examples: Pay component, run category, value.
  • Enables you to expand all details to access a full task view, which includes all payroll input fields.

Comparison of Payroll Input Tasks

Workday also enables you to add payroll inputs on the user interface using these tasks:
  • Add Payroll Input by Result
    .
  • Add Payroll Input by Worker
    .
  • Request Payroll Inputs
The 4 tasks contain the same fields, but they differ in terms of:
  • Access: How you find them in Workday.
  • Layout: Whether Workday displays all fields or an expandable selection of the most commonly used fields.
