Calculations may make use of Qualifiers and/or Functions, and are able to modify values of pay components. Calculations are used exclusively by the Payroll application. ;CMD: Command ;Commands: Used to perform operations within a UserCalc. ;Comparison Operators: Allows the UserCalc to compare two values \\ !![D|#4] ---- ;Database Fields: Allow the user to access a large amount of information about the employee from within a UserCalc. ;Date OT: A string that should be interpreted as a date by the program. ;Disbursement Messages: The lines of information that will print on the employee’s payroll stub/deposit stub. \\ !![E|#5] ---- ;Elements: A group of pay components that, for convenience in calculations, are added together and named, and may be referenced by Calculations, and in some instances, Functions and Qualifiers. \\ !![F|#6] ---- ;Function: May return a Boolean, Char(acter), Date, or Number value. Functions may be part of a Calculation UserCalc as a CALL, or may be a stand alone UserCalc for the Attendance or Benefits modules. \\ !![G|#6] ---- ;Global Values: Used to hold information between UserCalcs for one employee. ;Global Variables: Variables that hold their value beyond the existing UserCalc. !![H|#7] ---- ''No Terminology' \\ !![I|#9] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![J|#10] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![K|#11] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![L|#12] ---- ;Lexicon: Provide a controlled set of values, which a particular field may contain. ;Lists: Used in order to simplify the number of UserCalc lines it would take to eliminate employees from the selection. '\\ !![M|#13] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![N|#14] ---- ;Number OT: Any numeric amount. \\ !![O|#15] ---- ;Operand Types: Used to declare what value the Operand will have, and how to process it within the UserCalc. ;Operator: Defines the action that is to be applied to the Operands indicated. ;OT: Operand Type \\ !![P|#16] ---- ;Parameters: These are number amounts, character strings, Boolean values, or date values that are passed automatically to Functions and Qualifications UserCalcs. ;Processing Frequencies: Define the timely manner under which a payroll item (deduction, benefit, etc) is processed. \\ !![Q|#17] ---- ;Qualifier: Returns a Boolean value of either True or False. It is used to either eliminate or include employees in a calculation. Qualifiers may be part of a Calculation UserCalc as a CALL. \\ !![R|#18] ---- ;Relative Date Operators: Allows the UserCalc to return the value of a date relative to another date. ;Round Nearest: Defines the level of rounding within a UserCalc. \\ !![S|#19] ---- ;Statistics: Used to hold information for each employee that is not easily accessed with Pay Components. ;System Constants: Provided to allow the user access to typically required dates ;System Variables: The amounts calculated by the FLSA process ONLY. \\ !![T|#20] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![U|#21] ---- ;User Variables: A type of variable whose value is defined by the user. ;UserCalc: A set of user-defined instructions that tells the execution program (UPCALC, UFCALC, etc.) to perform an action or operation. \\ !![V|#22] ---- ;Variables: Used as temporary working storage to hold values required by the UserCalc. \\ !![W|#23] ---- ;Wage Basis: A Wage Basis type is used with the WAGE operator \\ !![X|#24] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![Y|#25] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !![Z|#26] ---- ''No Terminology''\\ !!Command Glossary \\ %%center %%small GO TO ||[A|1] [B|2] [C|3] [D|4] [E|5] [F|6] [G|7] [H|8] [I|9] [J|10] [K|11] [L|12] [M|13] [N|14] [O|15] [P|16] [Q|17] [R|18] [S|19] [T|20] [U|21] [V|22] [W|23] [X|24] [Y|25] [Z|26] %% %% !![A|#1] ----
