\\In IDWR, the column 'Group Source' has two distinct purposes. It is used when ever a Pay Header is created, to determine the 'Demographics' in the Pay Header. The Payroll, Unit, Group, Tax Jurisdictions (Home and Work), State/Province (Home and Work), and School District are determined by evaluating the 'Group Source'. In turn, these columns are used when determining how many 'To Date' records are needed to house the ’todate’ information.
The Group Source is also used during 'Pay Line Generation', to obtain an Entity, Unit, and Group. These three values are then used to obtain the correct 'PC Rule' record from IPPC
Group Source can contain the values below. If it is NULL or 'Not Specified', then P2K will use the rule 'Match Assign/Posn' when locating a 'PC Rule' record. When locating a Pay Header, P2K will default to Prime Assignment. These choices provide the same behavior as in previous versions
!Prime Assignment
This method is certainly the most simple. It disregards the Pay Line entirely and uses the Group associated with the Prime Assignment
!Matching Assignment / Position
This method is the one that created the need for this field in the first place. It is need for clients who bring transaction in from Time Entry, where the Job Code prevails and is often overridden.
This method first attempts to locate a matching Assignment for the Position/Job combination on the Pay Line. If located, then the Group associated with the matching Assignment is used.
If not located, then the group associated with the position on the Pay Line is used.
If the Pay Line does not have a position, then the Unit associated with the Job on the Pay Line is used to locate the first assignment with the same Unit. The Group associated with that Assignment is used.
If a Group is not located at this point, then the group from the Prime Assignment is used.
!Job Only
This method is the one that created the need for this field in the first place. It is need for clients who bring transaction in from Time Entry, where the Job Code prevails and is often overridden.
The Job from the Pay Line is used to locate a matching assignment, and the Group from that assignment is used. If a match is not found, the group is taken from the first assignment where the unit is the same as the Unit associated with the Job on the Pay Line.
