An entry is created for the selected fiscal period as well as the corresponding reversal entry in the subsequent fiscal period. These transactions will be captured in two separate files, one for each fiscal period and will appear under Human Capital ► Payroll and Financial ► Monthly Accruals Generation ► Monthly Accruals Export window. The authorized users generate the transactions at the end of each month. These entries are subsequently transferred to the general ledger for posting in their respective fiscal period.

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.

Fiscal Period

Overview

The Fiscal Period information is another key component of Human Capital to determine and calculate appropriate forecast information.
 
The Fiscal Period values are used across the application to determine the adequate amount for month-end accruals when performing the accruals generation and export functionality, or when running HC reports on the last day of a specific fiscal period.
 
These values are also used in the exporting functionality to ensure that expense transactions are exported to the financial system based on this concept to ensure and facilitate constant reconciliation between the General Ledger (the financial system) and the salary expenses Sub- Ledger (HC).
 
The Fiscal Period may be segregated quarterly, monthly or every six months. Fiscal period goes from the beginning of each Fiscal year (e.g. April 1st.) to the end of the fiscal year, e.g. March 31th).
 
The fiscal period values must be created on a fiscal year basis by the HC System Administrator.

Statutory Holiday Catalogue

Overview

An accurate configuration of the statutory holidays is key for forecasting salary costs correctly. This function allows the ability to specify whether employees will be paid or not on a particular Statutory Holiday. Statutory holidays and associated Cost Items are used by payroll calculation and financial planning and forecasting. Depending on the conditions of employment, holidays may or may not be remunerated.

The set-up of the holidays is usually done when setting up a new fiscal year.

Note: The difference between an employee’s forecast with paid or non-paid holidays can represent on average 11 days of salary. When multiplied by the number of employees in the organization, the impact on the total salary forecast can be significant. The appropriate configuration of holidays is therefore crucial.

At the same time, the employees with a Shift Schedule non-paid holiday will be underestimated by one day also.

Year End Rollover

Overview

In the Human Capital, most information can be shared across multiple fiscal years. Since some of the information is fiscal year-dependent, it needs to be carried over from one year to another. The Year End Rollover process is designed to handle this process, which is explained below.

The year-end rollover process is usually executed at the end of the fiscal year. In some organizations changes to the financial coding block (FCB), the chart of accounts or the accounting practices often coincide with the beginning of the new fiscal year.
 
Note: This document is intended for system administrators and experienced users who are required to perform a fiscal year transition or FCB updates.

Generate Pay Periods

Overview:

At the end of the year, the user needs to create new pay periods in Human Capital Pay Period for each pay code in the system.  Some pay codes have 52 pay periods because employees get paid on a weekly basis, this means that we need to make 52 new entries for that one pay code every year.  This procedure would generate the same pay periods for the new fiscal year based on the ones from last year. It will only generate pay periods for the pay codes where isActive=TRUE.

The batch Update process is used in the following windows:​

  • Assignment
