When you initiate the earnings, non-payroll payments, and non-tax deductions your enterprise requires, Oracle Payroll generates:
Elements
Balances and balance feeds
Formulas for payroll calculations and element skip rules
Formula processing and result rules
You can modify these generated components to enhance their suitability or efficiency for use at your installation. Some modifications can be made even after processing has occurred, but most should be made before processing the element in a payroll run.
Important: If a generated element requires changes because of mistaken entries made when initiating the earnings or deduction, it is best to delete the results and re-initiate.
For example, if you select the wrong processing rule or amount rule when initiating an earnings or deduction, simply delete the generated components and begin again.
