Payroll Salaried Employee Vacation Filter

We have 100+ salary employees and need to pay end of the year vacation cash out for 20 employees on a separate check run.

We have vacation code linked to salary pay code.

I am able to enter the 20 employees in the timesheets with the paycode vacation and hours to be paid out.

The problem I am running into is - when building the batch if I do not select Automatic Pay Salary/ Include Pay Periods (biweekly) - I get a critical error.

But if I include Salary and Pay period then it builds a payroll for all 100 salaried employees.

I need the build to include only the 20 employees that I entered for vacation cash out.

Please advise.

Make sure PSTL is installed.

In the Alternate/Modified Forms and Reports setup assigned to the user, make sure the option for Payroll Transaction Entry is set to Technical Services Tools.

Make sure you're using a pay code based on a salary pay code.

Good, I am glad to hear setting security to the PSTL version of the window allowed you to mark the 'in addition to salary' checkbox. I assume you were able to now process the cash pay out successfully, showing that it worked.

No, the PSTL version of the window should not have any impact on how payroll works. As long as you are able to set security to the PSTL version of the window and can see the checkbox, then it should be fine to use. Just note that the new copy/paste feature for payroll does not work with the PSTL version of the window. So after finishing the cash payout, you can set the security back to the core window, and the copy/paste feature should work with that window. This should all be fixed in the January 2022 hot fix, so once you are past that version, then it should all be fixed and the core window will have the checkbox again and the new copy/paste feature will also work in the same window.

Ok I changed the Alternate Security for Payroll Transactions to Technical Services Tools and it did work.

Will this have any impact on how payroll works? Also what if a user does not have PSTL installed? Is this required for this feature to work?

Thanks

Try to change security to the PSTL version of the window, and then check again. (And click the NEXT/PREVIOUS buttons again if needed.) The checkbox should be right above the Reason/type fields on the right.

I do not see the "in addition to salary". NEXT or PREVIOUS did not work either.

I am entering VACN paycode which is based on SALY (salary paycode) See below screenshot.

Hello,

Remove the payroll build, and then go back to the payroll batch in the Payroll Transaction entry window and expand the line, mark the 'in addition to salary' checkbox on the bottom right corner. (If you don't see this checkbox, then, click the NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons at the bottom to see if it pops ni then.) With this option marked, you do not need to include the salaried paycode in the batch with it. Save and rebuild the batch again.

(If you are on version 18.4, you may need to set security to the Payroll transaction entry window to the 'Technical Service Tools' option to see/mark this checkbox. But the new copy/paste feature to payroll may not work in this PSTL version of the window. This issue will be addressed in a future update.)

I hope that helps. Please mark this post as 'answer' if you are able to mark that checkbox on each payroll transaction and this works for you to build now without having to mark the 'salary' automatic pay type.

Cheryl
