Distribute Check Maintenance - PYPACM

This process updates selected records in the GL, BK, SYSTM timecard batch, hr_eostub (if Associated Code 3 of common code PYFG/PY266C is set to "EOSTUB"). History entries (PYUPPH) for the given period are updated in the Payroll database; the check note of each entry is updated (i.e., "WT" becomes "DT," "WR" becomes "DR" with an offset entry of "DO." All accumulators are updated automatically when PYPACM is run, and several reports are produced.

Period as YYcclll (YY=Year, cc=Pay Cycle, lll=Number): Enter the period for which the Check Maintenance distribution function is to be performed.
How would you like employees selected? Select one of the following selection options:

  • ID – Select by ID.
  • PC – Select entire pay cycle.
  • SC – Select by selection criteria.

Posting date for the reversal/typed entry: Typically, use today's date. If you are reversing a future dated check, use the date of the original check for the reversal.
Check date for the reversal/typed entry: Typically, use today's date. If you are reversing a future dated check, use the date of the original check for the reversal.

Options
Show reversals in check register as negative amounts (Y): Defaults to Yes.
Optional 4-character GLPOST-MISC Code for this Set of records: The 4-character code entered here will be posted in the Misc field on the GL transactions that the PYPACM process generates.
Reversal period as YYcclll (YY=Year, cc=Pay Cycle, lll=Number): An optional reversal period, different from the original period of the checks(s) to be reversed, can be specified for General Ledger postings if desired. If this option is used, PYPARC (Rerun Check Maintenance Posting) and PYUTRA (Recompute Accumulators) must be run for the reversal period once PYPACM completes. It is important to limit the PYPARC processing to only those checks being reversed. One method of achieving this is to set up a separate reversal period via PYUPPR. All checks to be reversed, even if the original periods of the reversed checks are different, can be posted to this period. That is, PYPACM can be run a number of times until all checks to be reversed for any number of different periods have been processed. PYUTRA can then simply be run for the reversal period with no selection criteria needed. If this method is used, the Period Calculated and Period Paid flags in PYUPPR must be manually changed to "Y" for the reversal period before running PYPARC.
