Gross Payroll Outsourcing Process

Purpose

When you run your payroll for outsourcing, you must use two procedures. The first procedure creates the gross payroll file to be used to export data to the third-party payroll service provider.

The second procedure prepares the export file, called IDoc, to send to the third-party payroll service provider. It also allows you to assign the export IDoc to the appropriate service port for transport to the payroll server on which the payroll software resides.

Prerequisites

Make sure that all required information has been configured. You must establish:

  • Tax authorities

  • Payroll areas

  • Calendars associated with each payroll area

  • Wage types

  • Deduction frequencies

  • Payroll control records for each payroll area

Note Note

Make sure that you run the gross payroll schema before you run the outsourcing options.
