Organisation | Entitlements | Allowances
Summary |
Allowances are generally considered the Debit component of any General Ledger interface. |
What do Allowances do? |
Allowances must be created before employees can be paid using either Manual or Standard transactions. See also, Allowance Transaction Hierarchy |
Why do some Allowances start with 'Z'? |
You may notice that your allowances seem to have been duplicated, with the code of the latter half starting with 'Z'. Your PayGlobal Consultant has separated the Payroll related allowances from the T&A related allowances in your system. T&A allowances prefix the code with 'Z'. Separating out T&A and Payroll allowances enables an organisation to have several T&A allowance codes covering all sorts of Award entitlements while at the same time the Payroll component of PayGlobal has only one allowance for each condition. For example, employees may be entitled to overtime according to different conditions on their Award entitlement. Several T&A allowances will be required. However, Payroll will require only one overtime allowance. All T&A allowances will transfer to the same Payroll allowance. |
Types of Allowance |
All payments in PayGlobal are made using allowances, which can be paying or non-paying.
PayGlobal uses the Paying field in the Details (i) tab page to determine whether an allowance is Paying or Non-Paying. Job Costing PayGlobal displays a Job Code field on the allowance entry form when Job Costing is enabled and an allowance of the following type is entered.

Before you start |
Allowances are designed according to your specific requirements. Careful planning is essential in setting up allowances. Before creating a new allowance, see: |
The first live pay run |
Once allowance codes are committed to the first live pay run, they cannot be removed or altered easily. |
Reporting on Allowances |
The PGPRHIST004 - File Analysis Detailed Report uses a breakdown by allowance code. |
