To enter processing rules for the deduction:Processing rules enable you to define with precision how Oracle Payroll processes a deduction.
To enter processing rules for the deduction:Choose the Processing tabbed region of the Deduction window.
Select Recurring or Nonrecurring as the processing type.
Select Recurring if entries to this deduction should process until you change or end them. Select Nonrecurring if the deduction should process only when it receives one or more new entries in a period.
Select On Entry or Earnings Threshold as the rule determining when this deduction starts for an employee:
On Entry, if the deduction should start as of the effective date you enter it for an employee
Earnings Threshold, if this deduction should start when the employee's Gross Earnings balance reaches or surpasses a threshold amount. Enter this amount in the input value Threshold Amount.
Specify a default value for all eligible employees in the Threshold Amount Default field of the Entry Values window of the Element Link window.
Specify a value for an individual employee in the Threshold Amount field of the Entry Values window of the Element Entries window.
You can modify the deduction formula to reference a different earnings balance.
Check the appropriate boxes in the Deferred Compensation Rule region:
Employer Match tells the application to generate an ER Match element that you can use for employees who are eligible for employer matching (or partial matching). This element has the same name as the element you are creating, plus the letters ER.
After-Tax Component tells the application to generate an AT element that you can use for employees who elect to contribute after-tax money. This element has the same name as the element you are creating, plus the letters AT.
Note: You cannot select After-Tax Component for your own categories of pretax deductions.
Select a run type of Regular or All.
Select Regular for the deduction to process only in Regular runs, that is, the runs that produce employees' regular pay in each period. Select All to process the deduction in both Regular and Supplemental runs.
Select a termination rule to determine how the application processes the element after termination of the employee:
Actual Termination, if you want recurring entries to close down on the date the employee leaves. For a nonrecurring element, select Actual Termination if you want the entries to close down at the end of the pay period in which the employee leaves, or on the date the assignment ends (the final process date) if this is earlier.
Final Close, if you want the entries to stay open beyond the employee's leaving date so that you can continue to pay the employee.
Last Standard Process, for all recurring and nonrecurring elements if you want their entries to close down on the Last Standard Process date or on the date the assignment ends (the final process date) if this is earlier. The Last Standard Process date defaults to the last day of the pay period in which the employee is terminated, but you can set it to a later period when you terminate an employee.
Check the Standard Link box only if you want automatic entry of the deduction and its default input value entries for all eligible employees.
Check the Total Reached stop rule box if the deduction should stop when the total sum taken from an employee for this deduction reaches a specified total. You enter this total in the entry value Total Owed:
Specify a Total Reached default value for all eligible employees in the Total Owed Default field of the Input Values window of the Element Link window.
Specify a Total Reached value for an individual employee in the Total Owed field of the Entry Values window of the Element Entries window.
Uncheck the Total Reached box if the deduction should stop on the effective date you delete it for an employee. (This is the On Entry stop rule.)
For more information about start and stop rules, see Deduction Start and Stop Rules.
If this is a deduction for the purchase of Series EE Bonds, check the Series EE Bond box. All deductions for Series EE Bond purchase require the processing type Recurring.
