Paycheck Distribution - Inactive Department

Posted September 24, 2001.
Paycheck Distribution:

At the Payroll Users Group Conference we discussed how Paycheck Distribution does not distribute earnings for an employee in an inactive department. We mentioned that this occurs when off-cycle items processed before financials conversion are attached to an on-cycle Pay Calendar processed after financials conversion.

Please be aware of another common practice that may cause earnings not to be distributed. Anytime you add a paysheet, whether off-cycle or on-cycle, please make sure the information in the Addl Data table on the paysheet references an active department. If the department is an inactive department, go to Define Business Rules>Manage Human Resources (U.S.)>Setup>Department Table>Department Profile>Correction and set the status to "Active" until Paycheck Distribution is processed.

A case has been filed with PeopleSoft and hopefully we will have a permanent resolution to this problem soon.
