In the Element window, query the element you are modifying. Click in the Further Information field (in the lower right-hand corner of the window). This opens the Further Element Information window.
The fields that appear in this window depend on the primary classification of the element. Use these fields to make the entries described below.
Note: The names of certain balances that the system can accumulate for an earnings type or deduction appear in fields of the Further Element Information window. Whether a balance actually does accumulate depends on the selections made in the Earnings or Deduction window.
For example, the Toward Bond Purchase balance accumulates only for deductions for which you have checked the Series EE Bond box in the Processing region of the Deduction window.
To include the amount of the earnings in the calculation of the FLSA overtime base rate, select Yes in the field Include in OT Base. To exclude the amount of this earnings type, select No.
To include the hours worked for this earnings type in the calculation of the FLSA overtime base rate, select Yes in the field FLSA Hours. To exclude the hours worked for this earnings, select No.
See: Identifying the Earnings or Payment
Note: The application defaults the date in the fields based on if you check the FLSA Overtime Earnings and FLSA Overtime Hours on the Earnings window.
If you have defined an external organization with the classification Benefits Carrier, you can select the carrier name in the field Benefits Carrier.
Select a processing period in the field Period Type. For example, for a benefit deduction that should be taken once each month, select the period type Calendar Month.
Note: When a benefit deduction does not have the same processing frequency as a payroll, give the deduction a frequency rule for the payroll using the Frequency Rules window.
For example, if a benefit deduction taken monthly should process in the second period of the month for the semi-monthly payroll, check 2 as this deduction's regular processing period for this payroll. You can enter or change deduction frequency rules for payrolls at any time.
See: Defining Frequency Rules.
Change the selection in the Processing Run Type field. The choices are:
Regular (process only in Regular runs)
All (process in both Regular and Supplemental runs).
Change the selection in the Partial EE Contributions field. The choices are:
Yes (The payroll run should take partial amounts for the deduction if employee funds are insufficient to take the full amount.)
No (The run should never take partial amounts for the deduction.)
If the element is nonrecurring, you can select how the element entry affects Regular Salary and Regular Wages. Notice that the Regular Salary or Wages entry is processed unchanged when there is no entry of this element.
Select a value in the Regular Earnings Adjustment field to specify whether the element entry replaces (T), adds to (A), or reduces (R) the Regular Salary or Regular Wages entry.
