Workday doesn't recommend aborting the
Run Pay Complete
task. But if you do, Workday resets the status of any Completed
results back to In Progress
. Depending on the number of results, the reset could take a significant amount of time. Workday uses the currency rate type (or the company override) as of the pay period end date for currency conversions during the pay calculation.
When you use the
Run Pay Complete
task, Workday evaluates which bank accounts the settlement process routes payments through based on the bank routing rules you define. Workday recommends that you:
- Complete payroll in advance of Workday updates, to avoid midperiod changes in tax calculations or gross-to-net pay.
- Ensure that all payroll results with their corresponding accounting journals are up to date before completing payroll. You can use thePayroll Results with Outdated Accountingreport to identify results that's out of sync.
If you can't complete payroll, you can run the
Pay Calculation Results for Group of Workers
report before the update and download the results. After the update, compare the latest results and make any necessary adjustments.- Access theRun Pay Completetask.
