Simulating the Regular SHOYO Payroll Run

Use

A payroll simulation mimics the actual results of a payroll run without locking records or effecting actual data.

Procedure

  1. Choose Start of the navigation path Human resources Next navigation step Payroll accounting Next navigation step Asia/Pacific Next navigation step Japan End of the navigation path . You see the payroll options screen.

Note Note

You must specify the personnel country grouping and payroll accounting area for which the simulated payroll run will be performed.

End of the note.

  1. Specify the personnel country grouping and payroll accounting area. You can preset the personnel country grouping and payroll accounting area when entering your user parameters, in which case you are no longer required to specify the personnel country grouping.

  2. Choose Start of the navigation path Off-cycle Next navigation step SHOYO End of the navigation path . You see the SHOYO payroll options screen.

  3. Choose Start of the navigation path SHOYO Next navigation step Simulation End of the navigation path . You see the payroll options screen.

Note Note

The Pay period fields ( payroll accounting area/PP/YYYY ) are not used in the SHOYO payroll. In the Off-cycle payroll, specifying the payroll accounting area, which indicates the accounting period, does not have any meaning. Field Payment day should be used instead.

End of the note.

  1. Specify an individual personnel number or range of personnel numbers in the field Personnel number .

  2. Specify an individual payroll area or range of payroll areas in the field Payroll accounting area .

Note Note

If you use both the Personnel number and the Payroll accounting area fields, only the employees that match the values in both fields are selected. Enhanced selection options are available for the fields Personnel number and Payroll accounting area . Please see the description of the standard selection screen.

End of the note.

  1. Field Special Run should be used only with Off-Cycle payroll accounting. For the rightmost field specify A (any other value is not currently supported). For the second field specify S , which indicates regular SHOYO. These two fields are normally preset, when SHOYO processing is selected from the SHOYO menu screen. For the third field, specify the Payment day .

Note Note

The field Retroactive accounting date is not used in SHOYO payroll accounting.

Setting parameter Test run which appears in the field Program options , ensures that the results of the payroll run are not saved. In other words, parameter Test run must always be set for a simulated payroll run.

End of the note.

  1. Choose Start of the navigation path Program Next navigation step Execute End of the navigation path . A log is displayed when the regular SHOYO payroll run is complete.

  2. Use the log to check that the results of the simulated regular SHOYO payroll run are correct and that employees were not rejected.

  3. If necessary, change master data entries for rejected employees and simulate the regular SHOYO payroll run again.

Note Note

The System stores employees rejected by the payroll run in a separate list (matchcode W). If you want to perform a second simulation run just for the employees rejected by the first simulation run, please start the payroll program using matchcode W. Enter ‘=W.1’ in the Personnel number field.

End of the note.

Result

The regular SHOYO payroll run is simulated.
