Concept: Pay Component Aggregation for Payslips (FRA)

Concept: Pay Component Aggregation for Payslips (FRA)

You can aggregate several pay components on 1 line in a payslip using Report Designer by defining a print layout based on the
Payslip to Print - FRA
 standard report.
When pay components from the same payslip group share a
Default Payslip Name
 or
Override Payslip Name
 with characters in square brackets, Workday:
  • Aggregates the amounts from each pay component on 1 line.
  • Uses the text between the square brackets as the display name on the payslip.
Workday doesn't aggregate pay components in the
Summary
 tab on the
View Payroll Results
 report. You can view the payslip display name in the
Grouping
 column.

Related Calculations on the Payslip

On the
Maintain Payroll Payslip Configuration
 task, you can define 2 sets of related calculations in a payslip group:
  • Related Calculation(s) 1
  • Related Calculation(s) 2
Workday only displays related calculations when the pay result for the calculation defined in the
Related Calculation(s) 1
 prompt is identical for each pay component. Example: The
Taxable Wages
 amount is the same for each pay component.
When displaying related calculations for aggregated pay components, Workday displays the:
  • Shared value for calculations defined in the
    Related Calculation(s) 1
     prompt.
  • Sum of all values for the calculations defined in the
    Related Calculation(s) 2
     prompt.

Employer and Employee Deductions

When aggregating pay components, Workday still displays values from:
  • Pay components with a
    Code
     ending in
    _ER
     in the
    Employer
     column of the payslip.
  • All other pay components in the
    Employee
     column of the payslip.

Example

You define these deductions in the same payslip group:
Pay Component
Code
Default payslip Name
Calculation
Taxable Wages
(Related Calculations 1)
Rate
(Related Calculations 2)
Pay Component 1 - ER
PC_1_ER
[Group]
Taxable Wages * Rate
(120)
3000
4%
Pay Component 1 - EE
PC_1_EE
[Group]
Taxable Wages * Rate
(90)
3000
3%
Pay Component 2 - ER
PC_2_ER
[Group]
Taxable Wages * Rate
(60)
3000
2%
Pay Component 2 - EE
PC_2_EE
[Group]
Taxable Wages * Rate
(30)
3000
1%
Workday displays 1 line on the payslip:
Description
Taxable Wages
Employee - Rate
Employee - Amount
Employer -Rate
Employer Amount
Group
3000
4
-120
6
-180
Workday:
  • Groups together all 4 deductions, but separates employee from employer deduction amounts.
  • Displays the value of taxable wages, defined as
    Related Calculations 1
    , because the calculated value is identical for all pay components.
  • Displays the sum of employee rates, defined as
    Related Calculations 2
    .
