Payroll Management

The Payroll Management module is a key component within the Civil Service Management core.  It enables governments to process the entire government's payroll using sophisticated algorithms.  These algorithms address in totality the wide variety of payroll situations and scenarios.

It utilizes common data from the GRP's CSM and Financial core.  Users need only to enter information once within another CSM or Financial module, for Payroll to leverage that information.

Payroll Management provides key operational and managerial reports needed for ensuring transparency and immediate accountability. 

The server side calculation engine can process hundreds of thousands of payroll records, in a batch process manner, within a single day at a high performance level.  Complex payment management needs utilized, such as Pay Agents, direct cash, grouped payments and such, are supported by default via configuration.

Due to the nature and sensitivity of payroll, the system provides for key notifications to the authorized user who initiated the payroll calculation.  These key notifications occur during and after the payroll engine is running and provide for appropriate monitoring by the government over the payroll process.

Cost Item Management

Cost Item

Overview

A cost item is any element that can be used to predict and calculate future developments of organizational departments such as basic salary, vacation pay and full-time salaries at the assignment level. There are four information tabs at the bottom that further expand the capabilities of a cost item. The deductions tab lists the deduction and cost item relationship for a deduction calculation. A deduction can be viewed, added or deleted in this tab. The dependant tab represents cost items calculated on other cost items. For example, another expense can appear from producing an employee's salary. Each cost item, by law, may be associated with an income tax which will be recorded in the Income Tax tab within the Cost Item function. The last tab is Effective Date which manages all the different dates that document when the cost item will become effective. This screen performs many functions that are key to the payroll management.

Deduction Management

Overview 

This section deals with the Deductions that are applied to an employee’s earnings.  There can be many types of Deductions that must be taken into account when processing an employee’s pay. Deduction Management consists of actions that serve to attribute one or multiple deductions to an employee for specified periods of time. Deductions can be created by Payroll Management and assigned to an employee through the screen 'Automatic Deductions Screen' or 'Deductions Per Period'.

 

Benefits

Deductions Management establishes a deductions database that serves for organizational processes. This allows upper management to conduct monitoring and analysis of all earnings that have any type of deduction coded in this section. Third party payments, such as Provincial and Federal Income Tax, can be processed more effectively and in a timelier manner with this database that monitors all deductions activity. The payments can be delivered with a higher degree of confidence that can help guarantee compliance to the payment schedule.

 

Workflow

The Deductions screen stores all deductions within an organization by code.  The user can type a deduction code in the appropriate field and then the Deduction function will display all available details regarding that particular deduction. The screen also allows the user to search deductions with a linked cost item, which is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Refer to Deduction for more information. 

The Income Tax Destination screen deals with the location each income tax deducted off an employee's earnings will be transferred to. This function ensures that third parties are paid on time on a regular schedule.

The Income Tax Type function is available for the user to view all the different income taxes that could be applied to payroll calculations. Management can select certain income tax types that are only applicable to certain employee earnings and assignments. All income tax types are coded for ease of access so they can be searched and modified without difficulty. Refer to Income Tax Type for more details.

The Pension Fund function deals with pension fund types available to employees. Each pension fund will have unique specifications which can be viewed in the Pension Fund screen. Pension Funds play a very important part in payroll management. Pension funds provide financial security for employees when they retire, that is why deductions from employee earnings must be managed effectively. Refer to Pension Fund for more details.

Deductions

Overview

Deductions are another key factor part of the Payroll Management Section. It reduces the total gross amount computed in employee earnings applicable in a given pay period. Earning codes can be searched, added, modified and deleted in this function. Each deduction can contain many details pertaining to calculation methods, activity status, minimum and maximum deduction amounts, pension administration etc.  The earnings minus deductions defined for an employee gives payroll management the net pay to be applied. As earnings and pay are affected by Deductions, this function is another calculation aspect that directly relates to cost items mentioned in the Cost Item Management section. A separate section in this function deals with the cost item and deduction relationship for deduction calculations.

Pay Period Management

Overview

Pay period management allows the user to accommodate to the numerous pay structures and monitor them effectively.

Use the Pay Code function when dealing with the different types of pay and their associated pay periods. Pay Code allows the user to make managerial decision when all required data is available in an organized fashion within one user screen. A new pay code can be created here and existing pay codes can be modified and deleted. This function is a key feature when dealing with payroll management amongst many employees in an organization. Every pay implemented has an assigned code which will then display information about that pay. For example, working hours of the employee, works days per week and other additional information is displayed when a pay code is searched. This information can also be added when creating a new pay code. Refer to Pay Code  for more details.

Payment schedules may vary from one employee to the next. Organizations can have numerous pay schedules in which each employee is linked to.  In order to accommodate for these schedules, Pay Period Management outlines this information. Once the information on the schedules is defined, the implementation and payment procedure will be carried out more effectively and accurately.

Generate Pay Periods Based on Fiscal Year

Pay Code

Overview

Each employee will have a specified schedule that will outline their pay dates.  This selected schedule of pay depends of the pay details associated with the employee’s position and assignment as decided by the organization. The Pay Code screen is used to list and define the details pertaining to each schedule that an employee can belong to. The Pay Code maintains the detailed information such as Name, Description, and Pay Periods for each. The Pay Period is a crucial factor on this screen as it defines the exact dates and ranges of each pay.

Payroll Transaction Processing

Payroll Calculation

Calculate Regular Payroll

Overview

Payroll managers use the Calculate Regular Payroll application to determine the employees pay based on the Fiscal Year, Pay Code, Pay Period, and the chosen Institutions. Fiscal Year is a fundamental component of FreeBalance Accountability Platform. Budgets are created per fiscal year, transactions are posted for a particular fiscal year, reports are generated by fiscal year, analysis is performed comparing results from fiscal year to fiscal year and so on, etc. A fiscal year may not correspond to a calendar year. Pay Code allows every employee to have a specified time when he or she will get paid.  This selected schedule of pay depends on the pay details associated with the employee position and the institution where he/she works (i.e. Ministry of Transportation).

Calculate Cost Items

 

The CALCULATE Cost Items step is comprised of the following functions:

  • Generate an employee net pay number, after verification that the pay has not already been finalized.
  • Find the cost items previously calculated to determine if the pay was already calculated. If so, reverse the summary of accumulated benefits, reverse the cumulate hours, change status of the cost items per period to Not Processed, reduce the arrears and payments amounts, before the pay is re-calculated.
  • Check for retroactive transactions, and create the cost items and deductions per period, for these retroactive transactions.
  • Copy the automatic cost items in cost items per period. Most of the time, one (1) automatic cost item will create one (1) cost item per period. However if there is a new salary transition, certain cost items need to be split to reflect the new salary. Also, if a cost item has a new cost item effective date, this would mean that part of the month, the cost item is one amount and the other part it is another amount, so again the system will need to create multiple cost items per period to reflect this.
  • Calculation of Statutory Holidays. The system must verify if there were any statutory holidays during the pay period being calculated or any statutory holiday for the retroactive transactions, based on the Shift Schedule Definition of the employee assignment.
  • Check if manual or retroactive cost items per period need to be split.  For every record found in Cost Items Per Period with Frequency set to One time or Pay Period, and IsProRated set to True, the application will verify if any Salary Transition occurs between the Cost Item Start Date and End Date. If a Salary Transition occurs, the cost item per period will be split at the Salary Transition effective date.
  • Verify and assign Accumulated Benefit entitlements.  The application will verify the global variables associated to the Accumulated Benefits and verify if the employee for which the pay is calculated, is entitled to accumulated benefits as per Accumulated Benefit Entitlement.  If Entitlement credits have already been generated, under Cost Items Per Period (Cost Item Transaction Type is set to Entitlement and State is set to Approved), the Number of Hours/Day/Unit is set based on the number of days under Accumulated Benefit Entitlement Detail.
  • Find the Accumulated Benefit transfers balance, from Accumulated Benefits Summary .  If the Accumulated Benefit Type is Daily of Hourly, the Number of Hours/Day/Unit of Cost Item Per Period is set to Balance, otherwise if Accumulated Benefit Type is Paid, Amount for Frequency is set to Balance.
  • Calculate the value of the cost items per period. In cost items per period, there will be records coming from automatic cost items or cost items per period that were entered through the time and attendance module or cost items per period that were added manually through the cost items per period screen.  The application will scan these cost items per period in order of sequence Cost Items.  Only Cost Items Per Period that have a status not set to Cancelled nor Finalized, and a State set to Approved are calculated.  Calculated Amount and Amount Limiting Regular Cost Item, from Period are determined at this step, based on a detailed algorithm.
  • Apply the maximums.  At this step, the Maximum by Pay, Monthly Maximum and Annual Maximum, from Cost Items Per Period are applied, if any.
  • Apply penalties. At this step, the Employee Assignment Penalties are applied, if any.
  • Update Accumulated Benefits. Summary of Accumulated Benefits fields, including Accumulated, Credit, Debit, Taken, Paid and Balance are updated, based on the Effect on Accumulated Benefit, from Cost Item Per Period.
  • Set other attributes in cost items per period. If no error was generated during the previous steps, the fields Employee net Payment, Sequence Calculated, from Cost Items Per Period are set to the values determined, and the status is set to 'Calculated'.
  • Update the cumulated hours, based on the Number of Hours/Day/Unit, from Cost Item Per Period.
  • Check for remaining balances in accumulated benefits. If the global parameter Accumulated Benefit = TRUE and the global parameter Gregorian Calendar = TRUE, the application will verify if the pay period is the last pay period before the new year and if so, will verify that every Summary of Accumulated Benefit has a balance of zero.  If the balance is not zero, the following error will be generated: "The year end procedure for the Accumulated Benefits has not been done.  This employee cannot be calculated.  Please execute the year end procedure and recalculate".  The application also verified if any assignments ended and there are remaining balances. If so, the following error will be generated:"The employee's assignment has ended and has remaining balances.  Accumulated Benefit transfers need to be generated before pay can be calculated."

Calculate Deduction Items

To CALCULATE Deductions, the following actions must be performed:

The deductions have to be calculated in the order of sequence, specified under Deductions . This step includes the calculation of Period DeductionsCalculated Amount based on other deductions previously calculated, with a smaller sequence order, less any exemption specified under Deductions per Period.

There are 4 reasons why transactions go in arrears:

1) For an extended period of time, the employee is on leave and does not have any cost item to cover the mandatory deduction.

2) For a specific pay period, the employee does not have sufficient cost items to cover the mandatory deduction.

3) The calculated deductions that affect the pay have a greater value than the maximum allowed.

4) The employee is paying back the arrears through automatic deductions.

All transactions in Arrears will be included in the Arrears form.

  • Check for penalties.  The application will apply the penalties specified under Employee Assignment Penalties , if applicable.
  • Validate and apply the rules.  The application will apply the Maximum Per Pay, Monthly Maximum Amount and Annual Maximum, from Employee Deduction Rules, as well as the Maximum Cumulative Deductions.
  • Set other attributes in deductions per period.  The application will set the Employee Net Payment, Sequence Calculated and the Status to Calculated, under Deductions Per Period.

Calculate GL Distribution

 

The calculation of the GL Distribution is comprised of the following steps:

  • Validate that the distribution can be done.  The application will validate, for each Employee, that Is Finalized is false (un-checked), Is Valid is true (checked), and there is no Cancel Date, under View Pay Cheque.

 

  • Erase the previous GL distribution. If the GL distribution has already been calculated, the application deletes the employees GL distribution for the pay period for which the pay is calculated, so it can be re-generated properly. The distribution is saved under Cost Items and Deductions.

 

  • Generate the cost item distribution,for the Debit and Credit transactions.  If a partial or full line of coding is specified under Cost Item Per Period, it has precedence.  For the segments not specified under Cost Items Per Period, the application then looks at the Automatic Cost Items partial or full line of coding.  For the segments not specified under Automatic Cost Items, the application then looks at the Cost Items partial or full line of coding.  For the segments not specified under Cost Items, the application looks at the Assignment Financial Coding Block.  Code splitting is performed, at the Assignment Financial Coding Block level, if a Percentage different than 100% is specified.  Finally, for the segments not specified under Assignment Financial Coding Block, the application retrieves the coding from Position Financial Coding Block.  Code splitting is performed, at the Position Financial Coding Block level, based on the Percentage specified under Position Financial Coding Block.

 

  • Generate the deduction distribution, for the Debit and Credit transactions.  If a partial or full line of coding is specified under Deductions Per Period, it has precedence.  For the segments not specified under Deductions Per Period, the application then looks at the Automatic Deductions partial or full line of coding.  For the segments not specified under Automatic Deductions, the application then looks at the Deductions partial or full line of coding.  For the segments not specified under Deductions, the application looks at the Assignment Financial Coding Block.  Code splitting is performed, at the Assignment Financial Coding Block level, if a Percentage different than 100% is specified.  Finally, for the segments not specified under Assignment Financial Coding Block, the application retrieves the coding from Position Financial Coding Block.  Code splitting is performed, at the Position Financial Coding Block level, based on the Percentage specified under Position Financial Coding Block.

Retroactive Pay Calculation

There are two (2) kinds of retroactive pays:

1) A delay occurs for approval of a new employee or a new promotion.  This is directly linked to a new assignment.

The application will create cost items per period and deductions per period marked as retroactive, for each pay period for which retroactive payments are made.

2) A delay occurs for signature of an increase.  This is not linked to a new assignment.

The Retroactive Summary screen is used to enter employee assignment filters, Cost Items to consider and percentage of increase.  A list of employee assignments meeting the filter criteria will be presented to the user.  Retroactive amounts will be calculated by multiplying the sum of cost items per period, associated to each selected cost item and for each assignment, by the percentage of increase.  Once the retroactive details are approved, pre-approved records are created in the employee assignments change requests and cost items per period.

Process Unapplied Payments (Salaries)

Overview

Upon the completion of payroll, a payment file is generated and sent to the bank, where the direct deposit is performed.  If there are any mistakes that the bank realizes (i.e. the bank account number is entered wrong), the bank will send a file back to the organization. The organization must then update the information and resubmit the payment file with the new information for the employees who had mistakes in their payment files.  However, in order to regenerate the information on a payment file, the employee’s pay must be reversed to be marked as "not paid". Upon uploading an unapplied payment file, all of the payments will be automatically marked as not paid so that the user can update the information and regenerate a payment file for all employees with payment file corrections.
