Accrual Limit is not being enforced



Description of Issue

The employee's accrual limit is not being enforced when the payroll is being processed.



Context
  • Munis

  • Accrual Tables

  • Employee Accruals

  • Payroll Processing

  • Employee Accrual History



Cause

The Earning Method on the Accrual Table is 09-Anniversary Date via Batch or 10-From Tables via Batch, but the Limit was set to B-Via Payroll/Transfer, which are not compatible.

When the Earning Method is a Via Batch option and a Limit is being enforced, the Limit setting needs to be Via Batch/Transfer or Via Batch/Lapse Excess.

If the Earning Method was 01-08 (Via Payroll earning methods) then the Limit could be B - Via Payroll Transfer.



Resolution

The Limit Option on the Limit Tab of the Accrual Table needs to be changed to A -Via Batch/Transfer

  1. Navigate to the Accrual Tables program (Payroll>Payroll Setup>Accrual Tables)

  2. Search for the Accrual Type and Table that is being reviewed

  3. Click Accept

  4. Click Update then TAB to the Limit tab 

  5. In the Options field, Select the Option to A-Via Batch/Transfer



Additional Information

If an adjustment needs to be made to an employee that has already been processed through payroll, an update can be done through the Employee Accrual History program.
