Example of Converting Sundry Lines#
Sundry Lines are payroll transactions for a specific employee that re-occur on a set frequency. Since they are payroll transactions, they can be deductions, earnings or any other type of transactions that can be entered through the payroll transaction screen IPSN. One requirement of Sundry Lines is that the pay component that is being loaded and converted must have the Enter Sundry toggle in the PC Rules section of the IPPC screen turned on.Sundry Lines are stored in the database as a header/detail set of records. The tables that the converted records are converted into are actually P2K_PR_SUNDRY_LINES and P2K_PR_SUNDRY_LINE_DETAILS. The interface table where the records are loaded into combines these two records together in order to group them more easily. Since each Sundry Line can have several Sundry Line Details, it is best to build the interface records following this grouping. As a minimum, each Sundry Line needs one Sundry Line Detail.
The following table is a list of the columns in the INF_CV_SUNDRYLINES:
