PC_DETAIL_TYPE is used to determine the nature of the' Pay Line Details' that will eventually be created. The two main types are 'Entered Value', and 'Computed Value'. The other types are maximums and declining balance, which are not as common.

• The 'Entered Value' is populated (during save) with the value entered on the Pay Line.
• The ‘Computed Values’ are calculated based on the 'Calculation Method'. Only one ‘Computed Value’ is allowed per pay component detail.
