Select the assignment to receive the payment and navigate to the Advance Pay window.
The arrears check box appears checked if the assignment is linked to an arrears payroll.
In the From field, select the start date of the holiday or other event for which you are making the advance payment. Oracle Payroll replaces the date you enter by the first date of the pay period in which it falls.
At the same time the Payment Date field displays the date for making the advance payment to the employee. This date defaults to the last day of the pay period immediately preceding the start of the advance pay period. You can manually alter this date to the last day of the preceding pay period if you require.
Do one of the following:
In the Periods field, enter the number of pay periods covering the advance pay period.
In the To field, select the end date of the advance. The system automatically replaces the date you enter by the last date of the pay period in which it falls.
Check the Defer check box if you want any net payment amounts to be deferred to the pay period following the recovery of the advance. If you do not check Defer, such payments will be made in the pay period they are earned according to the normal payment method for the assignment.
Save the entries you have made.
The Advance region now displays the period for which the Advance Payment element is entered for the assignment. For arrears payrolls this is one period later than the event period. For other payrolls this period is the same as the event period.
