Position Synchronization When Using HCM Data Loader to Load Position Changes

Position synchronization is disabled when using HCM Data Loader (HDL) to load position changes, for performance reasons. This means that the load will not update the affected assignments even if position synchronization is enabled.

In order to synchronize, you can run the process, Position Synchronization Job to update the affected assignments using the Scheduled Processes work area. This process currently allows you to specify only one effective date. Therefore, the position changes will show date-effective assignment updates as of the same date even though the HDL load specifies position changes with different effective dates.

End-of-Year Reporting: Amendments for T4, T4A, And RL-1

Canada’s functionality for the federal year-end slips T4 and T4A was amended, as well as the provincial year-end slip RL-1, that are issued to the employees and the respective government agencies.

The T4 is the Federal Statement of Remuneration Paid for reporting an employee’s employment income, statutory deductions and other information required by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). The T4A slip is the Statement of Pension, Retirement, Annuity, and Other Income used to report these types of incomes to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). You must submit these forms to the CRA at the end of every tax year. The RL-1 slip is a provincial year-end form for reporting an employee’s employment income, statutory deductions and other information required by Revenu Quebec. At the end of every tax year you must submit RL-1 slip information to Revenu Quebec. You must also provide these slips to your employees for tax filing purposes.

If corrections are made after the T4, T4A, or RL-1 is distributed, amended slips are issued. The amended slip is provided to the employee, as well as reported to the government.

It is important to process the steps to generate the amended slips in a specific order. Once the original PDF and interface processes are complete, the steps are as follows:

  1. Payroll process is complete.
  2. Archive End-of-Year Payroll Results process is complete.
  3. End-of-Year Register Report process for the original is complete.
  4. End-of-Year Reports process to generate the original year-end PDF is complete.
  5. End-of-Year Reports process to generate the year-end interface for the original is complete.
  6. Process the correction to the employee record. This can be a balance adjustment or payroll process.
  7. Run the Archive End-of-Year Payroll Results process for the amended employee.
  8. Generate the End-of-Year Register Report for the amendment.
  9. Run the End-of-Year Reports process to generate the amended year-end PDF.
  10. Run the End-of-Year Reports process to generate the amended year-end interface.

Steps to Enable

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

Tips and Considerations

When performing amendments for the employee, please note the following tips:

Involuntary Deductions: Protected Pay Rules

Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides additional functionality to the protected pay rules for involuntary deductions.  

With this release we have enhanced how the protected pay processing will occur within involuntary deductions of the same deduction type (for example, multiple garnishments), as well as across the different deduction types (Garnishment, Maintenance and Support, and Tax Levy).

You can configure protected pay rules for each deduction. The payroll process will now determine the highest value derived for protected pay within each deduction type and apply that value to all other deductions of that same deduction type.

For example, in the case where multiple garnishments are configured with different rules, one with a protected pay percentage of 40% and the other with 50%, the higher percentage of 50% will be applied as the protected pay percentage for both garnishments for the employee.  In the same way, you could have an entry for one garnishment with a protected pay amount of $300 and a protected pay percentage of 50%.  In this case, both protected pay entries are used to calculate the highest value of the two, and compare this to other garnishment entries to come up with a final protected pay value for garnishments.

If the deduction types are different, the payroll process will no longer apply the highest protected pay across deduction types.  Each deduction type will determine its own protected pay value.

The order in which elements are processed (as determined by the sub processing order) also impacts the protected pay.  If a Maintenance and Support deduction is processed first, that deduction will impact how much of the disposable income is available for subsequent deductions processed.

For example, in the case where a Maintenance and Support deduction is configured with a protected pay percentage of 50% and a subprocessing order of 1, and a Garnishment deduction is configured with a percentage of 80% and a subprocessing order of 2, the disposable income remaining for the garnishment is affected by the first calculation of protected pay of the Maintenance and Support deduction.  There may not be enough disposable income left to guarantee the 80% protected pay rule, so no Garnishment deduction would happen.

The protected pay amount calculated for the deduction is displayed in the run results for the Results element. 

Any amounts in arrears will also observe the protected pay limits.

The protected pay rules are configured on the involuntary deduction card for the employee, defined as a value definition within the Edit Calculation Values list of values.

Steps to Enable

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

End-of-Year Reporting: End-of-Year Exception Report

Canada end-of-year exception report facilitates year-end reconciliation and provides the ability to respond to any deficiencies for Canada Pension Plan (CPP), Quebec Pension Plan (QPP), Employment Insurance (EI), and Quebec Parental Insurance Plan (QPIP) reported in the year-end slips or other government reports.  

This report displays data from the End-of-Year Archive, with the exception of the name and address of the employee and the employer. It reports exception conditions for the T4, T4A, RL-1, and RL-2.

Before you run the end-of-year exception report, you must complete the following activities:

Use the Run End-of-Year Reports task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate the End-of-Year Exception Report. Parameters for the exception report process are:

After you run the end-of-year exception report, you must review the output. If there are exceptions met, the report will display those exception messages on the report. Exceptions are reported for transmitter, employer, or employee data. Before continuing on with the end-of-year process, you must correct the data as required.

End-of-Year Reporting (RL-2 Only)

Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada offers a comprehensive process to generate the RL-2 year-end slip.

The RL-2 slip is a provincial year-end form for reporting a pensioner’s retirement and annuity income. You must submit the RL-2 slip information to Revenu Québec at the end of every tax year. You must also provide the slips to your pensioners for tax filing purposes.

End-of-year processing for the RL-2 slip includes the following activities:

  1. Configuration for Québec
  2. Setting up TRU transmitter information for Québec reporting.
  3. Setting up balance feeds for the boxes and other information codes.
  4. Using the Archive End-of-Year Payroll Results task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate and view the results of the end-of-year archive for RL-2 information. The End-of-Year Reports processes uses the archived payroll run results to generate pensioner details required for the RL-2.
  5. Using the Run End-of-Year Reports task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate the End-of-Year Exception Report for the RL-2 and view its output.
  6. Using the Run End-of-Year Reports task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate the RL-2 register and view its output in Excel.
  7. Using the Run End-of-Year Reports task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate the RL-2 PDF and view its output.
  8. Using the Run End-of-Year Reports task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate the RL-2 electronic interface and view its output.

Payments reported on the RL-2 are elements with a secondary classification reporting type of T4A/RL2.

Use the Manage Legal Reporting Unit HCM Information task in the Setup and Maintenance work area to set up the transmitter information for reporting of RL-2 data.

Use the Run End-of-Year Reports task to generate the register report and review pensioner information, as well as verify the box balances.

Use the Run End-of-Year Reports task from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting work area to generate the RL-2 slip.

Steps to Enable

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

Tips and Considerations

Enter the Québec Provincial Tax registration at the payroll statutory unit (PSU) level if the Québec Identification Number applies to more than one TRU. Enter the registration at the TRU level if there is only one TRU within the PSU, or if you are overriding the default entry entered at the PSU level.

The registered name can be entered in either the Registered Name or the Alternate Name field. The user can choose to enter something unique in the Registered Name field to distinguish multiple registrations in the LOVs. If the Alternate Name is populated, the Alternate Name entered will be displayed on the RL-2 slips and in the interface file. If it is not populated, the Registered Name will be displayed.

Involuntary Deductions: Record of Employment Override Dates

Two new date fields are provided to use to override the dates that are derived by the Record of Employment (ROE) archive process, which are used when processing a termination or leave of absence (LOA) for an employee. The First Day Worked and Last Day for Which Paid fields were added to the Reason for Issuing ROE calculation component on the Reporting Information card.

The ROE reports the following for the employee:

These dates are derived by the ROE archive process, which is determined by the scenario that triggered the ROE. These dates are required for termination and LOA events, and you may want to modify them.

Two new fields have been introduced on the Reason for Issuing ROE calculation component of the Reporting Information card to allow you to override the dates when processing a leave of absence or termination for an employee:

Override First Day Worked: A date provided in this field is considered an override to the derived date and will be reported as the First Day Worked on the ROE worksheet and interface file.

Override Last Day for Which Paid: A date provided in this field is considered an override to the derived date and will be reported as the Last Day for Which Paid on the ROE worksheet and interface file.

Both the Override First Day Worked and Override Last Day for Which Paid dates will impact the insurable earnings and hours that are reported.

You may populate either of these dates, as needed to report these override dates for the First Day Worked or the Last Day for Which Paid on the ROE.

Use the Manage Calculation Cards task from the Payroll Calculation or the Person Management work areas to access the employee’s Reporting Information card. Then access the Reason for Issuing ROE calculation component and component details as displayed below. The new fields are available to populate, if required.

Permanent Account Number (PAN)

A PAN is a unique 10-digit alphanumeric identity allotted to each taxpayer by the Income Tax Department in India. The PAN is also one of the widely accepted personal identification numbers in India.

Prior to release 11 update 3 there was an attribute to record the PAN on the Calculation Card of the person. However, the PAN of an employee is usually captured during the new hire process as one of the important personal information attributes. So the PAN has been moved to the New Person and the Manage Person pages for you to enter and maintain it as one of the National Identifiers.

New Hire Capture of PAN

Steps to Enable

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

Tips and Considerations

Customers Storing the PAN in the Calculation Card

If you are currently storing the PAN in the Calculation Card of the person, the PAN data will no longer be available in the Calculation Card after the release 11 update 3.

To migrate the PAN of existing employee records from the Calculation Card to the seeded PAN under the National Identifiers, please raise a Service Request through My Oracle Support (MOS).

Customers Storing the PAN in a Custom Lookup Code Created under National Identifiers

If you have created a custom lookup code under PER_NATIONAL_IDENTIFIER_TYPE lookup to store the PAN of your employees, you can choose one of the following two options:

  1. Migrate the PAN data of your employees from the custom lookup code to the seeded PAN lookup code and start using the seeded PAN lookup code for storing the Permanent Account Numbers.
  2. Continue to use your custom lookup code to store the PAN of your employees. Note that the permanent account numbers that are stored against your custom lookup code are not displayed on the calculation card and validations will only work for the PAN stored against Oracle delivered PAN lookup code.

PAN Acknowledgment Number

Prior to release 11 update 3, there was an attribute called ‘PAN Reference Number’ available on the ‘Extra Information’ tab of Manage Person. This attribute was used to record the acknowledgment number of the PAN application of employees who have applied for the PAN but have not yet received one.

The label of this attribute is now changed to ‘PAN Acknowledgment Number’.

Legislative Changes for National Insurance

National Insurance Number Prefix

The current validation is based on a combination of a list of valid prefixes for the NINO and certain characters which are not valid. The new validation will perform the following validation:

National Insurance Number Prefix

Navigation Path: My Workforce > Person Management > Personal and Employment > Manage Person >National identifiers >United Kingdom >National Insurance Number

All reports and processes have been updated to include the new validation on NINO. These include:

National Insurance Category Change on Reaching State Pension Age

Validation that is performed on the Statutory Deductions card upon entry of NI category has been changed. It now calls a formula that will check if the employee has reached the state pension date based on the new legislative regulations. NI category C will be rejected if the state pension age has not been reached.

A new certificate type has been added to the list of existing certificate list on the Calculation Component Details ‘Aggregation Information’.

Aggregation Information Details

The NI Category Update process has been enhanced to include State Pension age check for employees being processed. If an employee reaches the state pension age at the effective run date of the process it will:

The audit report from the process has also been updated to show anyone that has reached the state pension age at the effective run date. A message to indicate that action is required will be sent.

Audit Report

After you have verified the documentation from your employee, you can update the certificate type on the Aggregation Information component details to the appropriate one – for example to ‘Birth certificate’.

Steps to Enable

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

Tips and Considerations

It is important to note that though a prefix combination could pass the validation requirements, it may not necessarily be a valid NINO. Certain NINO prefixes will be classed as valid although they have not yet been issued by HMRC, therefore they are not correct.

For example, a prefix of ‘AC’ would meet the validation requirements even though it is not actually one which is currently being issued by HMRC. However this is in line with the HMRC policy which is designed to cater for future changes and prevent a recurrence of the issue experienced this year.

For NI category update process to work there must be a date of birth on the person’s record, as it will be used to establish if the state pension age has been reached.

The payroll process will give a warning if the person has reached their state pension age but their NI category has not been changed.

  1. Start the Manage Payroll Process Configuration task.
  2. Set the Create DIR Card Create DIR Card using Global UI parameter to “HRSYNCDISABLE”. Remove this process parameter value once you are ready for the automated changes to start again.

NOTE: The synchronization functionality is not available when the Manage Features by Country or Territory Extension Parameter setting is Human Resources or None.

Include Resident and Nonresident City and County Tax Balances on Periodic Tax Filing

You can now include resident and nonresident balances for cities and counties in your third-party periodic tax filing. These balances are used by local tax filings that require resident and nonresident wages and taxes to be reported separately.
