Proration Setup
When you prorate an amount, you distribute the payment proportionally over a set period. Rent,
utilities and other kinds of payments can be prorated. Suppose if Salary of an employee is changed in
the mid of the month then he should get the pay of first 15 days on the basis of old salary and should
get remaining days salary on the basis of new salary within a period.
Lets say we have hired an employee from 01-JAN-2000.
Create an Element like Monthly Basic Pay

Note : Element is a basic structure for the payment or deductions related to employee.
Page 2 - 58
Click on the Input Values button to add the input values as shown. Add M_Basic_Pay and
check the Database item
Then Click on Save Icon to save the record
Create Link for the Element Monthly Basic Pay to make element available. We can set
eligibility criteria for a employee and check Standard check box for Recurring Type elements
to attached automatically with employees as per criteria.
Page 3 - 58
Now Query the Employees record and go to the assignment screen

Click on the Entries Button to attach the element.
Attach the Monthly Basic Pay Element from 01-Jan-2000. If effective date is current date
then track the date to 01-Jan-2000
Page 4 - 58
Then Click on the Entry Values Button to enter the Salary the Employee
Enter the Salary 20000 and save
Now go to the Fast Formula and write the Fast formula as below. Type will be Payroll Run

Amount = ROUND(BASIC_PAY * RATE_PER_DAY,0)
Return Amount
Move to the Formula results screen and find the element Monthly Basic Pay
Page 7 - 58
Add the Formula results as below screen and save
Now Query the Seeded Event Group and check the tables and columns. We can create our
own event group if required
Page 8 - 58
Now Query the Element and move to the Proration Tab and set the Proration Group (Event
Group Name) and Formula and save.
Page 9 - 58

Proration Testing
Query the Employee and change the date to 15-Jan-2000
Page 10 - 58

Update the Salary value from 20000 to 30000 and save. A window will appear Click on Update
Save
Record is saved with new value which means employees salary from 01-Jan-2000 to 14-Jan2000 was 20000 and 30000 from 15-Jan-2000 onwards.
Page 11 - 58
Now Run the Quick Pay (Change the date to the last of the Month i,e 31-Jan-2000
Query employees record, go to assignments screen and click on Others button to run quick
pay.
Page 12 - 58
Select Standard as Run Type

Accrual Plan Setup
Accrual plans permit eligible employees to accrue / accumulate / gain PTO (paid time off) each
year as they work, to use for vacation or sick leave. Oracle HRMS has no restrictions on the
number of plans you can set up, each with its own units of accrued time (hours or days) and
its own rules.
First we create two lookup values (ABSENCE_CATEGORY and ABSENCE_REASON)
See the Navigation
Define Absence Reason
Page 16 - 58
Now go to the Element Description screen and Define new element as Annual Leave
Add input values as Day and Check the Database Item Box
Save
Create Element Link to make sure that element is available (We can set Eligibility Criteria to
restrict the element for organization , job , grade , people group , position etc ) and we can
make element as Standard to be attached automatically with employees as per criteria
Page 17 - 58
Now Define the Absence Types

In Which
We attach the Category (Lookup Values we created above)
We attach the Element used for Accrual.(We create above)
We attach Reasons (Lookup Values we created above)
In the next step we will define Accrual Plan

We use the seeded formulas for accrual and we can set Accrual Start as Hire Date when
employee joins the organization.
Enter Annual Leave in absence information (we created above).
Page 18 - 58

See the Navigation
See the screen to select Hire Date
See the screen to select formulas
Page 19 - 58
Formula for Carry Over
Click on the Accrual Band button and enter

Year of Service
Annual Rate
Maximum Carryover
= Total Service (up to the retirement or can break in rows)

= Annual leaves employee can avail in a year
= Employee can carry remaining leaves in next year if not availed
(if value is less than annual rate and
not availed then leaves will be lost)
Page 20 - 58

Ceiling
= The maximum amount of unused paid time off an employee
can have in an accrual plan. When an employee reaches this maximum, he or she must
use some accrued time before any more time will accrue.
Save
When we save the Accrual Plan then automatically five elements are created with the starting
name of our element
Elements created
- Annual Leave Plan
- Annual Leave Plan Carried Over
- Annual Leave Plan Residual
- Annual Leave Plan Tagging
- Annual Leave Plan Payroll Balance
Page 21 - 58
Second Element Created
It holds unused accrual/leaves to be carried over to next year/payroll year.

Third Element Created
Page 22 - 58
It holds unused accrual/leaves that cannot be carried over to next year/payroll year due to
accrual rules/bands.
Fourth Element Created
The payroll run uses a tagging element to keep track of retrospective entries of absences (and
other elements included in the net accrual calculation). When the payroll run encounters a
retrospective entry, it will recalculate gross accruals to take account of this entry. It then
creates a tagging element entry so that the same retrospective absence does not trigger it to
recalculate gross accruals in the next payroll run.
Page 23 - 58

Example: Supposing an accrual plan has a ceiling of 10 days, and two days accrual per
month. An employee has a net accrual of 10 at the end of May. The June payroll run does
not award any new accrual to this employee because the net accrual must not exceed the
ceiling. However, in July the employees manager enters five days vacation in May,
retrospectively. The July payroll run recalculates the accrual and updates the gross accrual
balance to 14. The net accrual is now nine (14 minus 5).
Fifth Element Created
Payroll Balance element contains net accrual of a Payroll Period. One can see the values in
Run Result form after running payroll for a month.
See the element links created automatically

Accrual Plan Testing
Query the Employee and attach the plan

First set the date to 01-MAR-2000
Go to the assignment screen and attach the automatically create element Annual Leave
Plan
Save
Page 27 - 58
Now Go to the Accrual screen ( FastPAth >>> Accruals ) to see the accrual results
As we are on the first date of the month we can see Net Entitlement is 0 because
employee can only be eligible for leaves
at the end of the month
Now change the date to the last date of the month 31-Mar-2000
Page 28 - 58
Again go to the Accruals form and see the Change As we have given 20 annual leaves in
Accrual Plan so monthly entitlement is 1.667 if leaves not availed
Now Enter the absence in the month of April-2000
Page 29 - 58
Set the date to 10-Apr-2000 and enter leaves from 15-Apr-2000 to 15-Apr-2000 (One Day
Annual Leave)
Save
After saving click on the accrual button and see the Before and After absence change
Page 30 - 58

As employees joining date is 01-Mar-2000 and Accrual Plan starts from 01-Jan-2000 so
Projected entitlement is 15.667 out of 20 annual leaves
Now go to the Accruals form and check the entitlements up to 30-Apr-2000 after changing
date.
Here net entitlement is

Accrual Per Month By

Page 31 - 58
Now Run the Carryover Process to see the change in carryover
Page 32 - 58
Submit a single request
Find the PTO Carry Over request, enter parameters and submit the request
Page 33 - 58
See the entitlements from 01-Mar-2000 to 31-Dec-2000

As we are at the end of the year date i.e 31-Dec-2000 we cant see carry over leaves
Now keep in mind that we entered 5 in maximum carryover in our accrual plan so an
employee can only carry 5 leaves in next year and other not availed leaves will be lost .
Change the date to 01-Jan-2001 and see the change.
Page 34 - 58
5 - RetroPay By Element Setup

Wages/Arrears due for past months at newly negotiated rates/increment in salary from past
months.
First we have to create two elements one for Salary and one for Adjustment (Arrears)
Elements : xxMonthly Salary
xxMonthly Salary Adj
Set effective date to your actual setups date (Normally we create all elements including
adjustment elements during initial setups)
Define the element and select Primary classification as Earnings

Select the type as Recurring and save
Page 35 - 58

Click on Input Values Button and define input values for the element, check database item and
save
Same way define another element which is our adjustment element. But make it
Nonrecurring and save.
Page 36 - 58

Define Input Values as we defined for the above created salary element.
Page 37 - 58

Now we can define the salary basis but its an optional step.
Select the values from list of values like element name and input value name and basis.
Now create links for the elements (We should have a payroll defined). Save the link
Page 38 - 58

Link for Salary Adj element.
Now define a person by setting the effective date 01-Jan-2000 (You can hire a person at a
later date)
Page 39 - 58

Now attach Payroll and Salary Basis with person at assignment screen. save
Now Click on the Entries Button on Assignment screen and attach element xxMonthly Salary
with the person. Then click on entry values
And enter 10,000 in pay value. Save
Page 40 - 58

Now Run the quick Pay
We will run quick pay for the month of Jan-2000 and Feb-2000 with only one element that is
xxMonthly Salary
Then we will run quick pay for the month of Mar-2000 with changed salary with two elements
after some more setups.
At assignment screen click Others Button and select Quick Pay from List of Values.
Page 41 - 58

Select Standard as Run Type
Save and Click on Start Run
Page 42 - 58

Process is Completed. Click on View results and select Run results.
Here we can see our element is processed and have results in Pay value.
Page 43 - 58

Now change date to 29-Feb-2000 and run second months quick pay.
Page 44 - 58
Now set the date again to 01-Jan-2000 (Setup Date) and Check / Create event Group
Page 45 - 58

Create new event group and add the following datetracked events as below.
