Concept: Retro Pay Group Change (CAN)
After you enable retro processing for multiple pay groups on the
Edit Tenant Setup - Payroll
task, you can process supported retro events for workers who change pay groups during a current or retro pay period.Example: You transfer a worker from an hourly pay group to a salaried pay group and enter time retroactively for the hourly pay group. You run retro to calculate the wages owed to the worker for the hours worked in the first pay group.
What Workday Processes
When you assign a worker to a new pay group that has a period start date for a completed pay period and then run the retro pay calculation, Workday calculates the worker's retro differences and forwards them to the current on-cycle pay period.
For midperiod pay group changes, Workday creates subperiods for the old pay group and the new pay group, and prorates the worker's pay component amounts.
