Personality provides for the ability to compute an hourly rate for salaried employees so that when hours are entered into the system from any of the various sources, the rate of pay is computed in such a way that the proper wages are generated.
P2K provides for the ability to compute an hourly rate for salaried employees so that when hours are entered into the system from any of the various sources, the rate of pay is computed (Formula explained in this document) in such a way that the proper wages are generated.

In releases prior to 30502, generating hours and dollars for salaried employees required that the dollars be generated separate from the earnings since they did not necessarily balance with each other. It is not recommended that Personality be configured to pay salaried employees by generating earnings from the hours keyed, accomplished by varying the wage rate.

Since earnings are generated from the hours which are generated daily, it is likely that generated earnings will be off by pennies from the employee semi-monthly or monthly wage. This is handled by ‘Force Balance’ logic, invoked when the transactions are brought into payroll ([UPTR]).

In most situations only salary would be required at a variable rate. For those clients using Cell Points pay line premiums, there may be a need to compute these premiums at a variable rate of pay based on the number of hours worked in the monthly or semi-monthly pay period. __The setup requirement for these premiums is described at the end of this document.__

There is also a new Pay Line Based premium that can be used in place of the UPTG Period $$$ premium. The problem with the [UPTG] premium is that it creates ‘Dollars Only’ into the [IPTR] screen, which means that the premium dollars from the hours worked in the period are not naturally generated into payroll. If not generated from hours, the [UPRETRO] would not be able to create the retro in the past. The correct way to handle a Pay Period premium is to use this new type. It will be generated from the hours worked (which may vary), and the dollars assigned to each hour will be computed by Personality correctly so that the total will equal the Period Premium amount. To account for any penny difference, the premium is force balanced when the transaction is brought into payroll during the execution of [UPTR].

On the [IPPC] form in the PC Details Rules tab, a new salary rate method is added to point individual pay components to the Variable Rate or Variable Time. This will allow you to select a different rate calculation for different types of time (i.e. Regular or LWOP).

For Variable Rate Hours, the number of work days in the pay period is determined from the employee work calendar. Since these are salaried employees, these work days are full days using ‘Standard Hours Per Day’. These hours are obtained from the work calendar if present.

The Salary Rate Method column on [IPPC] in the ‘PC Detail’ level controls the manner in which the wage rate is computed. The column has two values that invoke logic. It is IMPORTANT to use this set up ONLY for employees that are salaried and paid either monthly or semi-monthly. If you are using the same pay component for both hourly and salaried employees, then you will require separate PC Rules Sets for each.

!!Variable Rate (Element)
The key to computation of the variable rate is to divide the semi monthly wage by a number of hours. The hours will be determined by the creation of an element which will hold the pay components to be used in determination of the number of hours worked in this pay period. The Variable Hours element may be a simple or compound element, defined on IPPE.

If Variable Rate Method is used but NOT using UPTG, the IDCL ‘DAILY CALENDAR’ should be extended annually
NOTE: it is ‘hard-coded’ that you cannot manually update the DAILY CALENDAR’, you must re-name it, extend it and re-name it back.%%

The Variable Hours (Element) method requires that an element be set up in [IPPE] to hold the pay components to be considered when calculating the number of hours worked in a pay period. It can have any element code, but must be one of the ‘group elements’ in [IDGR]. The Group Element type MUST be set to ‘Variable Rate’.

__{need screen shot}__\\
The calculations used to derive the rate are stored for future reference in a USER FIELD ATTACHED TO THE PAY LINE DETAIL as shown below. This example is slightly misrepresenting since it indicates that the text is on the pay line. This was changed in November, 2008 to be recorded on the Pay Line details since it can vary at that level.\\

These earnings should contain anything that is generated from [UPTG] and as well as anything that may be entered as exceptions in [IPTR] that would be considered part of the employee’s regular earnings.

!!Pay Period Premiums
Pay Period premiums are a new feature as of September, 2005 and are designed to replace [UPTG] premiums. This type of premium is generated naturally from the hours worked in the pay period and is also ‘Force Balanced’ to ensure that the employee gets the exact premium amount when working a full pay period. Pay Period premiums are computed using a variable rate per hour depending on the number of hours that the employee is scheduled to work. If the employee is scheduled to work the entire pay period, the total of premium generated (by day) must equal the value of the Pay Period premium.
