A Business Group (BG) holds information about the components of work structures such as jobs, grades and positions. At the BG level we set up the legislative rules, terms of employment, remuneration policies and employee work patterns. Oracle HRMS provides the flexibility to define enterprise the following four basic configurations models,

1 A single operating company in one country. 2 A single operating company in multiple countries. 3 Multiple operating companies in one country. 4 Multiple operating companies in multiple countries.

We will create only one BG for demonstration while you can create more than one BG’s in your enterprise to keep sets of data separated. The major reason for creating many business groups is that your enterprise is present in many countries. The other reasons for creation of more than one BG are,

o During acquisitions or mergers there is a need to manage separate structures and processes during a transition phase.

o To keep a copy of your live system with example records for training or testing purposes. o You are a holding company with a number of subsidiary companies and each subsidiary

has its own structures, employees, and compensation and benefit policies.

1. QuickPay QuickPay is the process which is used to pay to single employee. It is useful when there is a need to check new elements definition result before applying on all employees. QuickPay is also used for instant updates for new hiring, late entries, and terminations.

2. Batch Processing

When we have to process the payroll for more than one employee then we use batch processing. That is running a request Payroll Run.

3. Payment Methods

In Oracle Payroll we can pay our employees using different payment methods like Check (Cheque), Direct Deposit, Cash or a combination of different payment methods. There are certain limitations of localizations.

4. Currency

We can pay using single currency or multiple currencies. The currency is defaulted from the Business group.

5. Payroll(s)

We define a payroll for a number of employees who share the same payroll calendar and therefore receive payment on the same date, and at the same regular frequency.

6. Pay Date / Cheque (check) Date

The Pay Date / Check Date is the date of constructive receipt of pay, on which paychecks become negotiable.

7. Scheduled Run

The Scheduled Run Date is the date scheduled for the Regular run of the payroll in each period.



104/157

8. Cut Off Date As employees expect salary in their bank account / cash on 1st of each month and it is also the practice of organization to pay on 1st of each month. Now it is possible if all kind of updating / addition is restricted in order to verify the data before processing of payroll, processing payroll and then post processing verifications. So for this purpose a Cut Off date is set for each period, and all entries or changes in payroll information is restricted after this date. Let say if we will set it to -5 then the cut off date will be last date of month – 5.

While to pay in advance the Advance pay feature is used that allows you to pay employees in advance, in the current payroll run.

4. Process Rollback A payroll run process can be rolled back and is useful when you want to check the processing and wants to verify the results. So process, verify, rollback and process again.
