PA182 - Salary Encumbrance Update
**Form Purpose
Run Position Salary Encumbrance Update (PA182) to calculate employee salary
and fringe benefit amounts for the remainder of the fiscal year and purge
existing encumbrance records.
You define the fiscal year end through which encumbrance is performed.
Important PA182 should be run after each payroll period. If you run PA182
less frequently, then any calculated budget variance will be overstated.
Note Active employee positions from Multiple Positions (PA13.1) are
encumbered IF the employee has a paid status, and IF the employee's position
code is designated as 'encumbered' on Position (PA02.1).
The encumbrance amount can be based on prorated salary (which is
automatically calculated), on the employee position's 'user amount' (which
must be an annual amount and is directly maintained by the customer). Or a
custom calculation can be performed. To perform a custom calculation, contact
your customer service representative.
If commitments should be posted to General Ledger and/or Activity Management,
the commitment flags on System Codes (GL01.4) for system code PA must be set
to 'Y'.
If employees are paid over different periods of time during the fiscal year
(e.g. 9 month paid vs. 10 month paid), then employee groups must be set up to
identify each group.
If the employee position's encumbered salary should be distributed, then a
Payroll Distribution - Employee (PR23.1) record for the employee OR a Payroll
Distribution - Positions (PR23.3) record for the employee's position code must
exist.
HR encumbrances are stored using the Position Rules count category used by
the employee position (by Position; by Process Level:Job-Code; or by Process
Level:Department:Job-Code). Therefore, the count category should be
established for the current position rules record.
**Processing Effect
PA182 removes existing General Ledger/Activity/Human Resources encumbrances
and recalculates them for the remainder of the fiscal year.
In addtition, if you are set up on System Codes (GL01.4) to encumber to GL
and/or AC for the PA system code, then encumbrance transactions are posted to
the appropriate GL and/or AC commitment files.
If the employee's salary is adjusted by a standard percent increase or by
pending pay actions, the program prorates each of the pay amounts (e.g.
pre-increase, post-increase) based on the number of remaining calendar days in
the employee's encumbrance period.
**More Information
Encumbrance is calculated for all employees with a paid status. Each
non-ended employee position is evaluated for encumbrance. A flag on the
position code record indicates whether encumbrance should be performed.
You can:
- Use the employee position's prorated salary or user amount
- Apply a percent increase to the selected salary or incorporate pending
actions for pay rate, user amount or pay step changes.
- Perform a custom calculation to determine the encumbered amount.
Fringe costs can be encumbered as a specified percent of encumbered salary.
Fringes can be distributed to an account or activity different from the
employee's normal distribution.
Encumbered salary and fringes can be distributed to the payroll or position
distribution accounts/activities or they can be fully distributed to the
employee position's account/activity.
Different encumbrance periods can be defined for a variety of employee groups
(e.g. employees paid over 9 months vs. employees paid over 10 months).
Optionally, a CSV file of encumbrance detail is created. This file is useful
for documentation and can used to update encumbrances for a non-Lawson
GL/Activities system.
Note Payroll "actuals" are based on PRDISTRIB records for the 12 months
ending with the fiscal year date entered on the Encumbrance Inquiry.
Therefore, review the schedule for deleting Payroll History to ensure that
payroll history records are appropriately available for the encumbrance
inquiry.
