Payroll

Global Payroll

Oracle Global Payroll is a high-performance, graphical, rules-based payroll management application. It’s designed to keep pace with the changing needs of your enterprise and workforce in order to reduce setup costs, administration, and processing time. It operates globally and consistently in every country supported by Oracle. It uses a highly scalable processing engine that takes advantage of the features of the Oracle database for parallel processing, resulting in optimal performance. In countries with payroll extensions delivered and supported by Oracle, the application delivers the calculations, tax reporting, and regulatory rules required to accurately process payroll and remain in compliance.

Payslip Performance Enhancement

You can now generate your payslips more quickly. During the payslip process, payslip template files get downloaded, including files for multiple installed languages. The method of retrieving the payslip templates has been enhanced to better support customers with large payslip templates or multiple templates for different languages.

The enhanced payslip process ensures better performance and quick generation of the payslips.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Offset Costs Allocation in Distributed Costing

You can now view employee assignment details for offset account of distributed costing. The offset cost results are distributed to all the applicable assignments and the corresponding assignment details are displayed for each record. These details are displayed in Run Payroll Cost Results report and Costing Results page.

For example, an employee has 2 assignments, Manager and Analyst. The Manager assignment has an earnings element entry of VV Appliances Base Salary Earnings Results ($5000), and the Analyst assignment has an earnings element entry of VV VOl Ded1 Results ($200). The employee also has a relationship level element entry VV Employee Club Contribution Results ($100) with distributed costing. With this feature, the offset cost results of VV Employee Club Contribution Results are now distributed in the ratio of both assignment earnings and the assignment details are displayed.

The assignment details on offset side for distributed costing gets displayed even in single assignment scenario.

Distributed costing now allocates offset cost results to all the available assignments in the applicable ratio. The payroll costing results page displays the respective assignment detail for the offset side costs in distributed costing and these details are displayed in the Costing Result Report.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

If you don't want to split the offset cost results in multiple assignments for distributed costing, set the process configuration parameter Date used to split the distributed cost in offset account to a later date.

NOTE: All new costing processes submitted after this date will split the offset cost results for distributed costing. The default date is: 2023/01/01. The offset will always split when the cost account is different.

This feature does not affect the existing costing results.
The assignment_id is now stored in pay_costs table using the below logic:
- Assignment level element costing results are populated with the respective pay_assignment_id
- Relationship Level elements with distributed costing uses the assignment_id of distribution group member.
- Assignment_ID will be NULL for Relationship level elements with Costed or Fixed Costing type.

Key Resources

For more information see the Administering Global Payroll Costing guide located in the Oracle Help Center.

Update Existing Absence Entitlement Records in Payroll

Load only the updated absence entitlement information into the Payroll application, when you update an absence entitlement record.

For example: An employee submits an absence entitlement record for 05/01, 05/02, and 05/03, with 8 hours per day. The absence is loaded into the Payroll application. Subsequently, the employee updates the existing entitlement record by another hour to 9 hours per day. When the absence is next loaded to Payroll, only the 3 hours update will be included for the absence. If the absence has already been paid, the additional 3 hours will be identified by the Retropay process and paid in the next payroll period.

This enhancement is currently available only for the new absence elements created from the 23C update onwards. It's recommended that all customers who are creating absence elements for a payroll implementation should enable this feature.

NOTE:

An upgrade for absence elements created before 23C will be available in 23D.

The absence update feature is currently available only for updates to absence entitlements. This feature will be expanded to also support updates to final disbursement and discretionary disbursement absences in a later release.

When you change the absence start date, it's considered as a new absence. The original absence records are deleted, and a new absence is created.

This enhancement reduces the number of absence and element entries created when an absence is updated. As a result, it also reduces the volume and complexity of retropay processing for absence changes.

Steps to Enable

Set the profile option ORA_PAY_INTFC_ABSENCE_IN_PLACE_UPDATE to Yes. By default, the profile option is set to No, which means that absence records are deleted and recreated when updated absence information is loaded. To disable this action, set the profile option to Yes. so that only the updated absence information is passed to Payroll.
When absence information is loaded into the Payroll application, the details including costing, are held in the calculation information tables. Expand the retropay event group to include changes to these absence details.
1. Navigate to My Client Groups and select the Event Group task.
2. Add the Calculation Range Item entity to the Entry Change for Retro event group for each type of update such as correction, insert, remove.
Take the same action if you have defined your own event group for retropay purposes.

Tips And Considerations

As a prerequisite, calculation range item should be added to the retro event group with the ORA_PAY_INTFC_ABSENCE_IN_PLACE_UPDATE profile option set to Yes.

Key Resources

For more information, see the "Calculation Entries" chapter in the Administering Global Payroll guide.

Payroll Archive Reports Translation

You can now configure the Payroll Archiver to store the archived payroll information in multiple languages such as English (by default), French and Spanish. You can then generate these archive-based reports in the language of the user's preference.

Payroll Register Report
Payroll Register Report for the Latest Process
Periodic Payroll Register Report

Configuration and Processes

Before you run the Archive Periodic Payroll Results process, complete the following tasks.

Add the process configuration parameter, Support for Archive Translation, to your default process configuration group or a user-defined process configuration group. If you had already run the payroll archive before adding this parameter, you must roll back the existing process, and rerun the payroll archive process using a process configuration group having this action parameter.
Set the parameter values with the Oracle National Language Support (NLS) Codes as required. Enter NLS codes of the additional languages you require other than the application default language. The default language is generally English, but it can be any other language depending on your implementation.

Follow these steps to add the translation parameter and set the NLS Codes as Override Values:

Navigate to My Client Groups > Show More > Payroll > Payroll Process Configuration.
Search for the default configuration group or click Add and create a configuration group.
Click the Add icon and add the Support for Archive Translation parameter to the group.

In the Override Value field, enter the NLS codes for the additional languages you require other than the application default language. Use separators if you enter multiple languages.

For example, this image shows NLS Codes for FRC (Canadian French) and E (Spanish) in the Override Value field as additional languages to archive the payroll information. Apart from the additional languages, the payroll archive data is always archived and stored in the application default language.

Click Save and Close.

For example, with the configuration as shown in this image, when you run the Archive Periodic Payroll Results process, the archived payroll data is stored in English (default language), FRC (Canadian French) and E (Spanish).

Update User Profile Language Preference

Any user who wants to submit the archive-based payroll reports and view the report output in their preferred language must update their default language settings.

To check the user's language setting, navigate to User Preference > Language > Default Language.

You must also add the NLS Code of the preferred language of the submitting user to the Override Value field of the configuration group of the report task or flow.

Submitting User Language

Each user has a language preference code configured within his or her user profile. If the submitting user doesn’t have a language preference code, the report is generated in the application default language. To generate the three archive-based reports in the user’s preferred language, follow these steps.

Navigate to My Client Groups > Payroll > Payroll Flow Patterns.
Select the Legislative Data Group and search for the report task name, for example, Run Payroll Register Report. You can also search for a flow that has the Run Payroll Register Report task.
Click Edit.
Under the Tasks tab, select the report task, and click the Edit icon.
Select the Submitting User check box on the Flow Pattern page. Complete the steps to save and submit the flow.

After you have updated the flow or report task under a particular Legislative Data Group, you can submit the flow or report task for that Legislative Data Group. The application takes the submitting user’s default language setting and generates the report output in that language. The report output meets all the translation requirements in the standard output formats of the report, such as MS Excel, PDF, and Text. The MS Excel output displays the data as text.

You can now generate the archive-based payroll reports in a language of your preference.

Steps to Enable

Add the Support for Archive Translation actions parameter in the configuration group of the report task and add the Oracle NLS codes in the Override Value field, so that the report is translated in the language of your preference when you submit the flow.
Select the Submitting User check box on the flow setup page to ensure that the report is translated in the language preference of the person submitting the report or flow.

Key Resources

For more information on translations, refer to the following topics On the Oracle Help Center:

Generate Check Payment Task Positive Number Validation

When you use the Generate Check Payment task, you can only enter positive whole numbers in the Start Check Number and End Check Number parameters. The new validation ensures that these two parameters only take positive numbers without any decimals, alpha characters, special characters, or comma separators. This validation takes place when the parameters are submitted.

For user-defined flows, use the Positive Number display type for these two parameters to enable positive number validation.

If you enter an alpha-numeric Start Check Number and submit the flow, an error message displays asking you to enter a positive whole number in the Start Check Number or End Check Number field.

You can now only enter positive whole numbers in the Start Check Number and End Check Number parameters when you use the Generate Check Payment task. The positive number validation ensures only correct check numbers are used when you submit the Generate Check Payment task.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Redwood Experience

These pages or flows have been recreated in the Redwood tool set Visual Builder Studio (VBS) to improve your user experience. The pages or flows look and act like Redwood pages or flows, to help create cohesiveness through the application.

Redwood Experience For Payslips

The Payslips page has been moved to the Redwood toolkit, giving the page the look of Redwood, along with the backend functionality that Redwood has to offer. With this new page you can quickly view and manage your payslips. Access this page from the Ask Oracle page, include it in a journey, or enable page nudges.

The redesigned payslip page is available by default when the ORA_HCM_VBCS_PWA_ENABLED profile is enabled. However, if you want to disable the redesigned Redwood payslip page and want to view the earlier version of the payslip pages, use the ORA_PAY_PAYSLIPS_REDWOOD_ENABLED profile option to disable the redesigned Redwood payslips page.

You can now view summary payslip information, such as earnings and deduction amounts, using the new payslip page. You can also preview your full payslip document, held in the document of records, and embedded on the page.

The redesigned page offers you the following:

View at any given time, 25 payslips listed in date order; payslips with the latest available date are displayed at the top of the page. If you select multiple payslips, details of the payslip you select last is displayed.
View all available payslips, but those pending payments, are highlighted with a Pending badge.
Select a payslip and the payslip page displays a Summary region and these tabs:
- Earnings
- Deductions
- Net Pay Distribution
- Payroll Preview
Click on the Earnings tab to view a summary of the amounts paid on your payslip. Click on the Deductions tab to view a summary of the amounts deducted on your payslip. These tabs also includes an analytics region that break down the payslip amounts in a pie chart and provides a bar chart to compare payslips.
- The pie chart displays the percentage of each earnings or deduction. Select an earning or deduction to view the amount.

By default, the bar chart includes the selected payslip and two previous payslips. You can use the chart to compare the details across the payslips.

Select the Net Pay Distribution tab to view the net pay distribution information such as the bank account details.
Use the Payroll Preview tab to view the payslip, held in the Document of Records, and embedded within the Payslips page. You also have the option to download the document from this page.
Select the check boxes against the payslips and use the export option at the top of the page to export one or more payslip documents.
Hide or display the tabs and analytics to meet your business requirements. You can even configure the page to simply display your payslip document embedded within the page.

Redwood Experience for Payroll Relationships

Use the new Redwood Payroll Relationships page that was moved to the Redwood toolkit, to manage employee assignment records for payroll statutory calculation and reporting purposes. You can also include this page in a journey.

A payroll relationship record is automatically created when a person is hired. Use the redesigned Payroll Relationships page to manage employee payroll information captured in the different sections of the page:

Basic Information
Assignment
Payroll Association
Payroll Assignment Details

Use the redesigned Payroll Relationships page to manage the following:

Use the Assignment picker to switch between active assignments for a person with multiple assignments. Select an active assignment and view the assigned payroll and relationship information for the selected assignment.
Use the Date picker to switch the date and view the assignment, assigned payroll and payroll relationship information as of the date selected. You can select a date between the start and end date of the assignment.
Use the Transfer button to transfer the payroll of an employee due to changes in the employee's terms and conditions such as a promotion, demotion, new position, new job, and so on. The employee is assigned a new primary payroll association effective the transfer date, and the current payroll association gets terminated as of a day prior to the transfer date.
The element duration dates on the assignment record control when element entries for an employee start or end. For example, a sales employee is terminated, and the Last Standard Process Date is automatically set to the last date of the employee’s payroll, say 25 Aug 2022. However, a commission payment is due to be paid after the termination date, so you want to keep the employee's payroll record open until 31Dec 2022. To ensure that the employee is paid the commission, you can set the Final Close date on the assignment record to 31 Dec 2022.
When you delete a payroll, the payroll association including the element and CIR entries associated with the payroll association is purged. However, you can’t remove a payroll that’s invalid as of the start date.
Hide or display fields to meet your business requirements. However, you can’t hide fields based on specific legislative requirements.
Use the Journey option to include the VBS version of the page in a Journey. Refer to the Extensibility Limitations mentioned in the Steps to Enable section.
Add the PER_ENABLE_WORKER_SEARCHES_USING_EFFECTIVE_DATES_PRIV functional privilege to a user-defined role, so that a person with the role can have access to date effective changes to the assignment.

The Payroll Admin user can access the page using the ‘Payroll Relationships’ task.

The new Redwood Payroll Relationships page allows you to take advantage of the Redwood look and feel as well as the Redwood toolkit to manage employee assignment records for payroll statutory calculation and reporting purposes. You can also include this page in a journey.

Steps to Enable

Use these steps to enable the redesigned Redwood VBS Payroll Relationships page.

Navigate to the Setup and Maintenance area and search for the Manage Administrator Profile Values task.
On the Manage Administrator Profile Values page, search for and select the ORA_PAYROLL_RELATIONSHIPS_REDWOOD_ENABLED profile option.

Payroll for Canada

Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine

Oracle is now delivering its Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine (CAOPTE). With this feature you will get the following deliverables:

Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine
Period-to-Date Aggregation
Tax Calculation Report

Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine

Overview

Use the new Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine to calculate federal and provincial taxes. This new Oracle Payroll Tax Engine replaces the Vertex tax engine.

With the new tax engine, all tax calculation information will now be held in Oracle Fusion. This means that all legislative updates to tax calculation information will come from one source, Oracle, rather than Oracle and Vertex.

IMPORTANT:

This only applies to Canada, not US tax calculations.
There is NO IMPACT on:
- Workers’ Compensation, Provincial Medical, and sales tax calculations
- Configuration of tax elements and balances
- GL and costing
- Year-end processing or reporting
There is NO change to existing setup, processes, or reports

High-Level Structure

The diagram below highlights the components that are changing and those that are not. As noted, the only change is the engine that is performing the tax calculations.

Timeline for Adoption for the Canada Oracle Payroll Tax Engine (CAOPTE)

Update 23A – the solution was delivered to Early Adopters
Update 23B – the solution wad delivered to a Controlled Availability group
Update 23C – CAOPTE is Generally Available for ALL Customers
In Update 23D – All newly provisioned environments will have CAOPTE enabled by default
In Update 24B - All customers will be switched over to CAOPTE as the default (no option to switch back)

NOTE: The Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine is not enabled by default in Update 23C. To perform tax calculations using CAOPTE, you must enable it. The Manage Tax Engine flow allows the user to select which tax engine to use for Canadian Payroll processing. For details, refer to the Steps to Enable section.

Transitioning Customers

The feature is Generally Available in Update 23C for customers to start reviewing and testing, with the final cutover in Update 24B. For additional details, please see the Transition Plan document located on the Canada Information Center. Refer to the Key References section for navigation.

Period-to-Date (PTD) Aggregation

Overview

Period-to-date aggregation provides the functionality to tax multiple payments of regular earnings in the same pay period, with the resulting taxes as if the payments were combined as one.

Within a pay period, CAOPTE aggregates regular earnings (including previous payments in the current period) and calculates the full pay period taxes on the aggregated earnings. From the resulting tax amount, it subtracts the taxes previously deducted for regular earnings in the current period.

The benefit is that multiple payments of regular salary, in the same pay period, are taxed as if they were paid in a single payment, thereby not under deducting taxes.

Vertex does not have functionality related to PTD aggregation. Multiple payments of regular earnings in the same pay period are taxed independently of each other.

NOTE: Both Federal and Quebec taxes are impacted by PTD aggregation.

Example

A semi-monthly paid employee in Ontario receives $3,000 per pay. As a result of that single payment, the employee pays $561.83 in Federal/Provincial taxes (based on 2022 rates using CRA PDOC tool).

Without PTD aggregation, if that same employee receives two payments of $1,500.00 regular salary in the same pay period, each of those payments have approximately $171.55 in Federal/Provincial taxes deducted for a total pay period tax contribution of $343.11.

The reason for the under deduction of taxes is that the individual tax calculations of $1,500.00 income ‘expect’ an annual salary of $36,000.00 ($1,500.00 * 24), which is in a lower tax bracket than an annual salary of $72,000.00 ($3,000.00 * 24).

With PTD aggregation, the first payment of $1,500.00 results in a tax deduction of $171.55, however the second payment deducts $390.28 ($561.83 – $171.55) thereby treating the aggregation of the two payments as if they were a single payment.

NOTE: The CRA PDOC tool assumes each payment is the only one in the pay period, so PDOC results will not match CAOPTE results in this case.

Enabling and Disabling PTD Aggregation

By default, the PTD aggregation is disabled. You may choose to keep the feature disabled. If PTD aggregation is enabled, and the employee exceeds earnings limits, they are taxed more. Even though this is more accurate, it may not be desirable in all cases.

You can configure the feature at the PSU or TRU levels, on the organization calculation card. If you set PTD aggregation at the PSU level, it applies to all TRUs associated with the PSU. You may also set the feature at the TRU level to override the setting at the PSU and have different settings for different TRUs.

To enable or disable PTD aggregation at the PSU level:

Navigate to Legal Entity Calculation Cards and enter the Effective As-of Date.
Select the Calculation Rules for Tax Reporting and Payroll Statutory Unit calculation card.
Select the Federal component group and select the Federal Tax calculation component.
In the Federal Tax > Calculation Component Details, click Actions > Edit > Update
In the Enable Period to Date Tax Calculation field, select Yes or No.

To enable or disable PTD aggregation at the TRU level:

Navigate to Legal Reporting Unit Calculation Cards and enter the Effective As-of Date.
Select the Calculation Rules for Tax Reporting and Payroll Statutory Unit calculation card.
Select the Federal component group and select the Federal Tax calculation component.
In the Federal Tax > Calculation Component Details, click Actions > Edit > Update
In the Enable Period to Date Tax Calculation field, select Yes or No.

The illustration below highlights the setting at the PSU calculation card level.

Tax Calculation Report

Overview

As part of this feature, you may run a report as a troubleshooting mechanism, to get a detailed statement of how the tax was calculated for an employee. This report provides a detailed breakdown of the calculations used in the Oracle Payroll Tax Engine for a payroll or a Quickpay. The report is provided as a tool for you to understand what factors were used in the calculations, as well as a detailed description of the calculation steps that produced the taxes.

The report is generated manually after the payroll process completes. It is a separate process called the Canadian Tax Calculation Report. The report can be generated for a payroll or a Quickpay process, that has a minimum logging parameter of 'F'.

Report Requirements

The following is required to run the report:

The minimum logging level must be set to F.
The submitting user must have the following role assigned to them (most users probably already have this role to access information from the UCM server):
- Role Name: Attachments Administrator
- Role Code : AttachmentsAdmin

How to Use

To generate the output:

Navigate to My Client Groups > Payroll > Submit a Payroll Flow.
Select a Canadian LDG.
Search and select the flow Canadian Tax Calculation Report.
Select a payroll flow name.
Select the Canadian Tax Calculation.pdf.

Output

The excerpt below shows the employee information and the factors, formulas, and results for the EI tax calculations.

IMPORTANT:

To remain performant, the report will only provide output for a maximum of 20 people.
If the logging level is set at a more granular level (>F), the report will only provide output for one person.
The report is only applicable when the Oracle Payroll Tax Engine is enabled.

This feature provides the following benefits:

Removes the dependency on Vertex for Canada payroll tax data and calculations
Oracle retains complete control of tax data and calculations
- Simplifies architecture
- Removes need to run Load Payroll Tax Information for Canada for payroll tax data changes
Better visibility of tax calculation steps and factors
- Improves error logging
- Detailed breakdown provided by the Tax Calculation Statement
- Simplifies troubleshooting process
- Faster resolution
Oracle retains complete control of legislative updates
- Simplifies process
- Provides faster delivery, especially for late-breaking government updates
Improves legislative compliance by addressing known gaps
- Calculation of the dynamic Basic Personal Claim Amount for Federal, Nova Scotia, and Yukon

Steps to Enable

Enabling and Disabling the Oracle Payroll Tax Engine (Switch)

Overview

The Manage Tax Engine flow, allows the user to select which tax engine to use for Canadian Payroll processing. It also allows users to use both tax engines at the same, time to show both calculation results simultaneously.

The parameters of the Manage Tax Engine flow are:

Current Status: Displays the status of which tax engine is used to calculate taxes. Valid values are:
- Oracle: The new Oracle Payroll Tax Engine is used to calculate taxes.
- Vertex: The existing Vertex Tax Engine is used to calculate taxes.
- Both: Both the Vertex and Oracle Payroll Tax Engine are used to calculate taxes.
Change Status: Allows you to change the tax engine used for calculations.

When running payroll processing using the Both option, the results of both tax engine calculations are displayed in the run results for a person. The actual balance updates that are reflected in the Statement of Earnings and corresponding Payroll Reports are fed from the Vertex solution. When running payroll processing using either the Oracle or Vertex options, only one set of run results is displayed.

NOTE: The Manage Tax Engine flow will be removed once the Vertex Tax Engine is desupported in Update 24B.

The illustration below shows both sets of run results. The run results from the Oracle Payroll Tax Engine contain Oracle in the names. For example, Canada Pension Plan Employee Oracle Taxes run result and Canada Pension Plan Oracle Withheld balance.

NOTE: There is no impact on costing.

How to Use

To enable or disable the Oracle Payroll Tax Engine:

Navigate to My Client Groups > Payroll > Submit a Flow.
Select a Canadian LDG. Search for and select Manage Tax Engine.
Enter a flow name.
Select the desired change status.

Tips And Considerations

Note the following important considerations for this feature:

The Canadian Oracle Payroll Tax Engine replaces the Canadian Vertex Payroll Tax Engine.
This only applies to Canada, not US tax calculations.
NO IMPACT on:
- Workers’ Compensation, Provincial Medical, and sales tax calculations
- Configuration of tax elements and balances
- GL and costing
- Year-end processing or reporting
NO change to existing setup, processes, or reports
You no longer need to run the Load Payroll Tax Information for Canada flow. All tax information will now be delivered by Oracle.
For those customers that are transitioning from Vertex to Oracle, please see the Transition Plan document located on the Canada Information Center. Refer to the Key References section for navigation.

Record of Employment (ROE) Override Dates

When there is a gap between the employee's last payroll run and a future termination date, you can now report all earnings and hours on the Record of Employment Worksheet by entering the Override Last Day for Which Paid date in the ROE Data Component of the Reporting Information card.

The example below highlights the functionality, using the following details.

Payroll: Semi-monthly
Hire Date: Jan 1, 2023
Employee’s last payroll run: Feb 28, 2023
Termination date (in future): Jun 30, 2023
Reporting Information card created as of Jun 30, 2023 (termination date)
- ROE Data component’s Override Last Day for Which Paid: Feb 28, 2023
ROE archive run Jun 30, 2023 (employee’s termination date)

Using the details above, the Record of Employment Worksheet reports all earnings and hours based on the employee’s final payroll run of Feb 28, 2023 even though there was a future termination date.

This feature allows employees to generate the ROE Worksheet according to their business requirements.

Mass Data Loading to Match on Previous HMRC Payroll ID

You can use the enhanced process to load the data received from HMRC to match on previous HMRC Payroll ID, if there is no match on HMRC Payroll ID for these inbound processes:

P6 : PAYE Tax Code / Tax Basis / Previous Taxable Pay & Paid
SL1 : Student Loan start
SL2 : Student Loan stop
PGL1 : Post Graduate Loan start

The HCM Data Loader file is generated for records that are successfully validated.
