Establish Selection Criteria for an Automatic Regular Payroll Run

When you use automatic processing for a regular payroll run, you can limit the employees to include in the processing run. To do this, you enter selection criteria based on an organization or an employee, project, or client parameters.

To set up selection criteria for an automatic payment processing run:

  1. On the Navigation menu, click Human Resources > Payroll > Payroll Processing.
  2. On the Select Posting Run dialog box, select a payroll run and click Open, or click New to create a new payroll processing run.
  3. On the General tab of the Payroll Processing form, set the Run Type option to Regular.
  4. In the Process Type field, select Automatic.
  5. Establish selection criteria that employees must meet to be included in this Payroll Processing run.
    Option Description
    Organization Select the organization with which to associate the payroll run.
    Advanced Selection To select employees to include in the payroll run, click to open the Employee Selections dialog box and perform an Advanced, Standard, SQL Where clause, or Saved search.
  6. Click Save. If you do not enter values in any of the Auto Selection fields, DPS processes all transactions included for this pay period.

    If you enter a value for more than one auto selection, DPS includes only those employees who meet all of the selection criteria.

    You can establish sort criteria for payments in the Sort Payment by fields.
