The Generate Pay Transaction (UPTG) program will generate transactions for a specified payroll, a set of employees within the payroll that matches the report parameters, a specified pay period or a date range within a specified pay period or a specified pay category. All transactions generated will be written to the Enter Pay Transaction (IPTR) form.

The UPTG program has been changed as of the 30503A release of software. Below are the highlights of the changes made in the program. \\
UPTG predicts a person's upcoming timesheet by taking into consideration the period of employment, the current employment status, standard hours worked, predefined holidays from IDHC and planned leaves entered/generated on IAAL.\\
Holidays that fall within the pay period may or may not reduce regular time. The rules for holidays are detailed out in the UPTG - Holiday Processing section of this document.\\
Leaves that fall within the pay period automatically reduce regular time. The rules for leaves are detailed out in the Leave Processing section of this document.\\
Prior leaves will not be processed by UPTG. The UPPAL process must be run to pick up prior leaves. The prior leave date prompt has been removed from the UPTG program.\\

New parameter added to UPTG ‘Rate Method for Salary’. This is an option on UPTG for salary generation to allow clients to choose which way they want to compute the hourly rate that will be used for special situations. A special situation may be an employee starts or terminates part way through the pay period or has a pay increase part way through the pay period and their salary needs to be calculated. The options available for the parameter ‘Rate Method for Salary’ are:
*Standard Hours (default value if not selected)\\
Compute the hourly rate from Annualized Salary:
Hourly Rate = Annualized Salary / (Std hours/wk * 52)
Using this method, employees would always have the same hourly rate no matter what pay period they are in. This method is not very precise.

Compute the hourly rate from the Pay Period:
Hourly Rate = Pay Period Salary * (Hours worked in PP/Scheduled Hours in PP)

The ‘Holiday OT Factor’ on the IDHC is now respected.
If you are receiving unexplained results when UPTG is run, for example, no salary generated but you requested it to be, then check that on the Work Rule – Status Rules tab, the “TIME GEN. DESTINATION” = “PR-Calendar”.
New rule has been added to the “Observed On” field in the Holiday Calendar (IDHC). The new rule is “Holiday Date”. This rule is explained in detail in the HOLIDAY PROCESSING chapter of this document.
UPTG now has a 'Rerun Selected Employees' toggle parameter. The user must enter a list of People to 'Rerun'. NOTE that there can NOT be anything in Payroll for the Period selected or the re-run will be done.

Standard Hours - this method will use the ‘Hours Per Pay” from the IEAS if setup, if not, from the Work Rule. It will then calculate the wage rate (Hourly rate) as follows:
Employee’s Salary / Hours per Pay = Hourly Rate
- the hours worked will be from the standard “Hours Per Day” from the IEAS if setup, if not from the Work Rule
Scheduled Hours - this method will use the total hours that employee is scheduled to work for the period according to the work rule. It will then calculate the wage rate (Hourly rate) as follows:
Employee’s Salary / Total Scheduled Hours = Hourly Rate
- the hours worked will be from the actual work schedule for the employee
