!!!DEFINE PAY POINTS
Pay Points are the entry points within the pay calculation process where different items of processing logic occur.

A collection of pay points are gathered together by the Pay Point Set. Each pay header will be assigned to a pay point set to carry out the processing in the sequential order assigned within the pay point set.

Pay points may be created and maintained through the Define Pay Points (IPPP) form.

!Pay Point Types and Pay Point Tasks
Pay Point Types are used to classify specific groups for entry points which the Payroll Calculation process has special logic.

Pay Point Tasks are assigned to pay point types. A task may be an Personality logic routine (Legislative Calculations) or may be a user assigned routine (User Calculations, Benefit Plans,or Attendance Policies).

When choosing a pay point type and pay point task combination, use the description to indicate the combination of the two. Sequencing should be the sequence of the pay point task within the pay point type.
