Element by Retro

Element by Retro is not Working In Oracle APPS , what all necessary steps we have to perform to work it properly Can any body help me

The "Retro Components" button on the Element screen would be enabled only if the "Enhanced Retropay" is enabled. Considering the fact that the Recalculation Tab is enabled (As you can go to the Tab where Retro Components button is present), you can use the Retropay by Element solution by attaching the Retro Element to the element.

How to set Legislation rule for Enhanced Retro

how to set Legislation rule for Enhanced Retro
How can i setup Enhanced Retro for Global HR International.
Iam implementing HR/Payroll on latest 12i. I am using HR International.
when i execute the following query , there is no records
select * from pay_legislation_rules
where rule_type like '%ADVANCED%RETRO%'
and legislation_code = 'IQ'
I have created events, event groups, enable dynamic triggers for my business group and legislation(IQ) and enter the corresponding event group and retro element in the Element screen(retro component).
And i update one allowance in the back period , and I found one row has been inserted in pay_process_events table. But i am not able to run enhanced Retro Notification report and not able to find any Enhanced Retro concurrent request.
Any one have any idea?
thanks,

There are no specific concurrent programs for Enhanced/Advanced retropay. The old ones still do, and derive under the hood the method of retropay.
I do not recall by hard the setting to activate enhanced retro (but it is a legislation rule), but it should show already in the element type screen. If you have the retro tab in the screen, and first you have to specify the method (Adjustment, ...) before specifying the retro element type (and time span), then you know that enhanced retro is configured correctly.

Urgent:How to differentiate retro and payroll run in Fast Formula

I have written one fast formula. This fast formula is attached to “Basic Salary” element.
“Basic Salary” element has retro and proration setup.
We are using Enhanced retro process.
Enhanced retro process is calling this Fast formula to check the difference amount.
Similarly oracle payroll will also call the same fast formula while running payroll.
Now our requirement is:
Few lines in Fast formula should not execute when FF is called by retro, but it should be executed when it is called from Payroll.
So how could we know, whether FF is called by retro process or by payroll?
If I have some way to find this, I can execute this code by using this condition.
Any pointer in this regard will be highly appreciated.

None of the above.. just write one custom PLSQL function which will take the payroll action ID as context parameter & will return the action_type column from PAY_PAYROLL_ACTIONS table.. to the Fast formula. L is for Retro run.
In the fast formula, place your specific code in the if condition.
Attention: Making the formula calculate differently in normal payroll & retro can cause you serious consistency issues in payments/deductions and debugging them might become impossible in the long run.

"Retro Pay by Element" for Saudi Localisation

Fellow boarders,
1. I am trying to run "Retro Pay by Element" for saudi localisation.
2. While trying to define reto-pay elements, the button "retro components" is greyed out (Elements>Processing>Recalculation Tab)
3. As per metalink note 743215.1, i try to run conc program "Generic Upgrade Mechanism" to enable the Retro Components Button In Recalculation Tab
however this program does not pick up any parameters from the list.
4, when I run the query
select * from pay_legislation_rules where
rule_type like '%RETRO%';
it shows me the data for Us, Canada & mexico only.
Does that mean that retro-Pay is not enabled for any other legislation other than these 3 countries ...?
If no, then how do I configure retro-pay for saudi localisation.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Shah Alam

Teachers Pension (UK) retro process

We have applied patch for Tiered contribution for teachers pension in UK legislation.
In phase one, I made changes for deducting Teacher's pension and
in second phase now I am trying to make changes for retro processing.
I am following the readme.txt file of the patch and followed following steps.
*However the new retro element I created for teachers pension is NOT being considered while retro processing.
Do I need to pass any direct/indirect results from the formula result rules?
Has anyone done this ? Could you please suggest?
===============================
Arrears Processing and Reporting
As per the requirements the arrears processing should happen in the
corresponding period in which the change is effective from. For this,
new retro elements should be defined for each earnings element contributing
to the Annual Gross Salary or Period salary on which the percentage is
applied.
Also Retro elements should be defined for the Pension deduction elements.
For reporting retro values related to pension contribution, retro components
will be seeded for the Seeded information element
'Tiered Contributions Information'
For this new seeded formula function will be seeded.
Formula Function Name :PAY_GB_TPS_TIER_DERIVE().
Suggested Code:
l_pension_tier = PAY_GB_TPS_TIER_DERIVE()
/* New seeded formula function to return the correct Pension tier in retro
payroll run Without this function retro payroll run will return only the
difference, with this function and below sum statement Retro will run
results with the exact band used*/
Pension_Tier = Pension_Tier + l_pension_tier
This above suggested code needs to be included in the existing pension
deduction formula, at the end of the pension formula before return statements
to the information element.
The above code ensures that in the retro run the pension tier returned to
the information element is increased by the difference.
=================================================

It appears from the previous bit of the readme that it's relying on the TRANSFERPTD dimension for doing the UDT lookup:
l_tps_emp_contr_sal = FULL_TIME_ANNUAL_SALARY_TPS_ASG_TRANSFER_PTD
/* New seeded balance which will give the Annual Gross Full time Salary */
/* The below section will fetch the employee contribution percentage and
Employer Contribution Percentage */
l_EE_Contribution_Percent = to_number(GET_TABLE_VALUE
('PQP_TPA_PENSIONABLE_PAY_RANGE',
                                   'Employee Contribution Rate',
                                   to_char(l_tps_emp_contr_sal)))
l_ER_Contribution_Percent = to_number(GET_TABLE_VALUE
('PQP_TPA_PENSIONABLE_PAY_RANGE',
                                   'Employer Contribution Rate',
                                   to_char(l_tps_emp_contr_sal)))
/* The below section will determine the band the current assignment will
fall into */
l_band = to_number(GET_TABLE_VALUE
('PQP_TPA_PENSIONABLE_PAY_RANGE',
          'Pension Tier', to_char(l_tps_emp_contr_sal)) )
Pension_Tier = l_band
Does this look like what's going on in your pension deduction calculation formula?
What happens if you comment out the function call?

Edited by: 594647 on Apr 16, 2010 10:46 AM

you can delete the retro assignment action for the moment, so you can launch the run for all employees.
As such, you have some more time to debug the issue.
I would activate some payroll tracing, so you know which fast formula throws this error. And then you should dig further, so you can identify the sql retruning multiple rows.
Or you do a sql*trace. That one will also point you to the offensive sql.

Retro Pay

Assume an employee gets paid 1,500 for August.
Now payroll comes to know that his salary is actually 2,000 and not 1,500.
The following are the steps required to be performed.
1. Define a new element which can be used to pay the Retro amount
2. Make sure that this element is Non-recurring and Multiple Entries allowed.
3. Attach this Element to the retro tab of the Salary element
4. Define the Assignment Set - An assignment set needs to be defined with the affected Employees
5. Element Set - define with the Salary element (Don't include the Retro Element. Error while submitting the Concurrent Request) .
6. Now run the Process Retro Pay by Element with the following parameters
a. Effective Start Date: This is the date from which we want to compute the difference
b. Effective End Date: A date in the latest Pay Period. The retro entries get created in this period.
c. Assignment Set: The Assignment Set we created
d. Element Set: The element set we created
e. Submit the request.
Question that where we have to define the changed amount on retro element or the main salary element and what amount only difference or complete 2000 have to put into input value of retro.. ?

Hi,
The steps you have given are the setup steps needed for Retropay process to work. Once the setup is done it will process the previous pay periods based on the input parameters to the process and generate the retro element entries for the assignments.
The change in amount should be updated for the employee in the element entry screen with a correct effective start date before running the retropay process.
Thanks & Regards,

which product should I buy? I want to create vintage/retro posters for band and Bar

Good day!
Instead of buying right away you may want to avail yourself of the free 30 day trial first to see which program fits your needs.
Photoshop and Photoshop Elements may be worth a try.
If you intend to create more graphic/typographic designs Illustrator may be worth looking into, too.
Someone else may have more/other recommendations, though.

hi,
Go to change of billing document and check for revenue account determination analysis. U will come to know why accounting document is not generated.
check this below
Possible errors:
1. VKOA not maintained for required combination
<u></u>tion: Maintain the combination in VKOA.
2. Account Assignment of Customer / material not maintained in Customer / Material Master (If maintained in combination in VKOA).
Option 1 (Standard solution):
step 1: Cancel Billing Document --> Reverse PGI --> cancel Delivery --> Cancel Sales Order
step 2: Maintain Customer master / Material Master correctly.
In Material Master, there is some link between Profit Centre & MRP Type. If one of it is not maintained, erratically few documents get stuck while releasing Billing Document to accounting. Few of course get posted.
Step 3: Recreate sales Order --> Delivery --> PGI --> Invoicing.
Option 2: Force the Account Assignment Group of Customer / Material through Debug in change mode of billing document, which will release Billing Document to Accounting.
3. Account Key not maintained in Pricing Procedure:
Impact: This may create accounting document, but if condition type, which are to be posted to account, but do not have account key maintained in pricing procedure, it will not be post the relevant condition type to G/L account.
In Billing Document in change mode (in the first screen where we enter Billing Document number), on the top most left hand corner, take a dropdown on Billing Document & select Release to accounting. Here you can get the under mentioned possible message:
1. G/L account not found
2. Cost Element not maintained for G/L account.
Regd number range
Whenever billing is released to accounts it will hit some accounting document in FI. I.e., it will hit RV (oba7) document type of accounts.
So, FI people also maintain number ranges for that document type. So, number range of the billing document should also be in that range only. So, maintain the same series the billing doc. So, that your invoice will go accounts.

Processing Back Dated Element

Hi,
I am applying Unpaid Leave absence for previous month in this current month.
The element entry for this absence is getting created in previous month for which the payroll is already processed.
How to process this element in current payroll period.
Regards,

You will have to run retro pay for the previous month. then retro pay will create retro entry for the element in the current period. You can run curent payroll period and that element will be processed.

"One of your retro element types will have a post termination rule of Actuel Termination, or Last Standard Process. But this should be Final Close, since retro wants to create an entry after the termination date."
Is it possible that it is the other way round that is may be the monthly earnings or deductions elements are defined as final close?
please help!

Elements don't appear after running Retropay

Hi friends,
I have an issue regarding the Retro pay( in 11.5.9). When i run the retro pay the element entries are not getting created in the current payroll period.
Here are the steps i did
1> Created a new non-recurring element "Spl Allowance Retro"
2> Created the input values Start Date, End Date, Pay Value and checked the indirect result, multiple entries
3> Created the element link for this element "Spl Allowance Retro"
4> Now added this element "Spl Allowance Retro" to the original element("Spl Allowance") in the Recalculation tab.
5> Created a Retro element set. Added the original element ("Spl Allowance") to that element set.
6> Created a new elment entry with the original element in the previous month (in march) for employee 9999.
7> Ran the retro pay with the assignment set(this assignment set contains the employee for whom the element entry is created in step 6,9999), element set(created in step 5), start date 01-mar-2010, end-date 30-apr-2010.
8> checked the entries for the employee in april. this does not appear.
I assume when we run the retro pay the element entries should be created in the april month for the ones which are not processed in march. Please note a new element entry is created in march and not updated.
can you please tell me if i am missing any step here.

The Retro element should not have "Indirect result" flag checked. If an element is marked as Indirect result, element entry can not be created using that element. When Retropay is run, the process creates Element entries using the Retro elements. Since the retro element is marked as Indirect result, Retro entries were not created.

I have elements 7 for 6 months, can I upgrade to 8 at a lower cost??

Would like to upgrade to Elements 8. Any type of discount .? Purchased and using 7 for 6 months
Howard

Contact Adobe customer service. They will usually give you a free upgrade if you've bought the old version within 30 days of the new release.
I don't know about 6 months though. However, they do offer a special "upgrade" price, if you ask for it.
That said, though, I'd look over the new features article in the link below and see if there is anything compelling in it.
Many people are facing a lot of challenges with version 8 and are actually asking for a retro-gade back to version 7! So, unless there are features you are specifically interested in -- and you have a relatively new, very powerful computer -- you may want to hold onto what you've got.
