The Process Pay Transactions (UPTR) form allows you to process pay transactions according to selection criteria, from [IPTR] (Pay Transactions) and create pay headers and pay lines. These new pays are then audited ([UPAUDT]) to prepare them for calculation ([UPCALC]).
The Process Pay Transactions Report (UPTR) processes pay transactions according to the defined selection criteria on the Maintain Pay Transactions [IPTR] form and creates pay headers and pay lines. These pays are then audited through the ([UPAUDT]) process and prepares them for calculation for the ([UPCALC]) process.

This form creates one batch per run and creates pay headers within that batch or adds to existing pay headers with matching EE, Pay Period and Pay Category.
The UPTR processes one batch of pay transactions at a time and conditionally updates the Batch Status to 'Processed by UPTR' at the end of the batch.
* Transactions within a batch will be bypassed if the Time Code does not have an associated Pay Component in [IDTC] and also when the Associated Pay Component is not valid (Based on PCRULES) for the Employee Entity, Unit and Group.
* By defining the [UPTR CLEANUP(System_Preference)] Preference, users can force UPTR to mark the batch as ‘Processed by UPTR’.
** When this Preference is set to YES, UPTR will mark the batch as 'Processed', regardless of any errors located on Transactions in the batch.
* In addition, ANY Time codes that do NOT have an associated PC must have the 'Bypass UPTR' toggle set to ON (in [IDTC]) to allow the preference to work properly.

The UPTR processes one batch of pay transactions at a time and conditionally updates the Batch Status to 'Processed by UPTR' at the end of the batch.
* Transactions within a batch will be bypassed if the Time Code does not have an associated Pay Component in [IDTC] and also when the Associated Pay Component is not valid (Based on PCRULES) for the Employee Entity, Unit and Group.
* With the introduction of this Preference [UPTR CLEANUP(System_Preference)], the User can force UPTR to mark the Batch as ‘Processed by UPTR’.
* If UPTR locates this Preference with a value of ‘Y’, then it will mark the Batch as Processed regardless of any errors located on Transactions in the Batch.
* In addition, ANY Time codes that do NOT have an associated PC need to have the 'Bypass UPTR' toggle turned on (in [IDTC]) to allow the preference to work properly.
What are the conditions when a UPTR will create a new pay header even if the employee has an existing pay header for the same payroll already?

* Wether or not a new Pay Header is created is determined by comparing the values in all of the columns and they all must match for the Employee Pay to be considered ‘Existing’.
* This determination is done one transaction at a time as the records are processed from IPTR. Theoretically, a separate Pay Header could be created for each Transaction.
* The information that must be identical are
** Employment Pay Category Pay Period Group School District Work State/Province Home State/Province Work Jurisdiction Home Jurisdiction
** It also depends on the ‘Prior Period Separate’ Toggle in UPTR
** To get more complicated the determination of the ‘Group Code’ depends on the setting in the GROUP_SOURCE column in IDWR
* Whether or not a new Pay Header is generated is determined by comparing the values in all of the columns and they all must match for the Employee Pay to be considered ‘Existing’.
* The parameter ‘Demographics Source’ will be used to determine which date to use when comparing columns from the employee’s information, which will then determine if changes in the employee’s data will cause a new pay header to be generated.
* The ‘Prior Period Separate’ toggle setting in UPTR is also used to determine if a new pay header will be generated.
* This determination is done one transaction at a time, as the records are processed from IPTR. Theoretically, a separate Pay Header could be created from each Transaction.
* The information that must be identical are:
** Employment Pay Category
** Pay Period
** Group
** School District
** Work State/Province
** Home State/Province
** Work Jurisdiction
** Home Jurisdiction
* The determination of the ‘Group Code’ also depends on the setting in the [GROUP_SOURCE] column in [IDWR]
