Payroll Accounts - New contains pay account records for each Compensation that is entered. When a payroll is processed the accounts entered in Payroll Accounts option are used to complete the USAS charging of the payroll.

Note

If an Expenditure account has not yet been created in USAS-R, it must exist first before adding it in USPS-R Payroll Accounts. If an expenditure payroll account has a status of “Inactive” in the USAS-R application, it will not show in the drop-down box as available when creating a new payroll account on an employee’s compensation. Accounts that have an “Inactive” status in USAS-R, may still show on an employee’s payroll account or compensation history, and can be made “Inactive” in USPS-R under Payroll Accounts. The USAS-R account status may be inactive does not remove it from any posted payroll history.

- - **NOTE** System/Configuration/Payroll Account Default Setup Configuration has been added to the Configuration menu. It allows district to set the flags for the Employer Distribution and Leave Projection default values. These default values will be set whenever a payroll account is created. The payroll account Employer Distribution and Leave Projection default values can be changed/overridden in Payroll Accounts for an employee, but it will default based on the Configuration values set.

11. The Sort Order - when charging accounts, we first find all of the active accounts for an employee/position that is being paid. To be active, the status of the account must be set to Active OR the status can be Maximum Amount In Effect with a maximum set and the amount already paid to the account is less than the maximum. The charge amount/percent must not be 0 and the start/stop dates on the account must have dates that are active or be empty. After we find all of the active accounts for the position being paid, then we look at the fixed accounts first and sort them by the sort order field. So the ACTIVE fixed accounts with the highest sort order are processed first. After all fixed accounts are processed, if there is still an amount remaining that has not been charged to the fixed accounts, then we will use the ACTIVE percentage accounts sorted by sort order.
