Add Adjustment

Use the Add Adjustments employee action to make an adjustment to an employee's pay information. Adjustments are paid in the current or future pay periods, even if the date of the adjustment was in a past pay period.

Note: Two indicator settings determine whether this adjustment will pass to the payroll interface. (The following information assumes that you have authorization access to the Indicator tab on the adjustment entry and pay code screens.)

If the adjustment will pass to the payroll interface, the adjustment icon appears in green.

If the adjustment will not pass to the payroll interface, the adjustment icon appears in red.

If the adjustment is a new request , it will not pass to the payroll interface until it is approved and the two indicators are set to Y, as noted above.

If the adjustment request is edited, the edit request record does not pass to the payroll interface. However, the original transaction that the edit is associated with will pass when it is approved and the two indicators are set to Y, as noted above.

These icons appear on the following screens: Employee Monthly View, Employee Request TCS List, Employee Transaction Grid, Employee Transaction List, Transaction Requests (Home Page), Employee Requests (Home Page).

For step-by-step directions for adding adjustments, see the following:
