!!!CALCULATE PAYROLL

!!Processing Information
All batches and transactions that have been audited and prepared up to the pay period indicated will be calculated according to the rules that have been previously established during set up.


If transactions pass the audit stage through [UPAUDT] as ‘Audited’, then UPCALC (payroll calculation) may be run.

If this process is completed, the Audited, Balanced, and Eligible toggles in [IPBE] will be turned on. In addition, the system marks the pay headers ([IPPH]) in that batch so that the Stage field displays “Audit’ and that both the Audit and Preparation toggles are ON. After UPCALC, the pay stage is now ‘Calculated/Paid’ on the [IPPH] (Pay Header).

UPCALC generates a pay run for each run according to [IMCS] Code Sequencing for [PAY_RUN_NUMBER] for entity. Payrun information can be viewed through the Pay Run Information ([IPVP]) form.

Normally UPCALC will be executed according to the parameter setting 'Exception Level'. If a particular pay has been causing issues of some kind, it can be run at Utility Level by setting it in the [IPPH] screen, Trace Level field for the desired employee/pay.

Allows a user to generate trial amounts, to confirm that the employee will be paid the correct amount and that the correct deduction amounts are calculated.

If performance is an issue with UPCALC, the function may be configured to use multiple processing threads to speed up performance. For more information on this please see the page titled  [Multiple Processing Threads|MULTIPLE PROCESSING THREADS] and [TIMER LOGGING CAPABILITY].

Other topics pertaining to the UPCALC function are: 
* [ATTENDANCE IN PAYROLL]
* [BENEFITS IN PAYROLL]
* [UACALC VS.UPCALC]
* [CDN TAXATION]
* [U.S. TAXATION]
