The UBRETRO facility was designed to calculate retro on benefit deductions when an employee receives a pay increase.
When an employee receives a retroactive pay increase, their benefit deductions may need to be recalculated to include the retro earnings.The standard retroactive pay program UPRETRO will calculate the difference between the old and new wage rates and insert a pay line into the current period's pay header for each pay line that was evaluated.

The program will only process for pay components attached to benefit plans that have a 'Retro' pay component attached to the 'Retro Pay' tab on IPPC. It is important to update the appropriate element if new 'retro' pay components are created In order to ensure that retro wages are used in the benefit calculation and are picked up in the correct period a UserCalc (as shown below) is required to capture the retro earnings.
