PR20.1 - Pay Class



Use Pay Class (PR20.1) to define pay classes. A pay class represents
a group of pay summary groups to which the system applies special edits or
calculations.



**Processing Effect

The system automatically creates in this form, pay classes for overtime,
noncash, and tips that you define in the Payroll form tab in HR00.1
(Company).
The system performs an edit to prevent time record entry of pay codes
tied to an overtime pay class, for employees with exempt employee status
defined
in the Pay form tab in HR11.1 (Employee).
Noncash pay represents noncash income to the employee. Before calculating
a net payment, the system subtracts all gross amounts tied to the noncash
pay class.
The tips pay class provides an edit that lets you enter both hours and
amounts on time records without being multiplied together. If you use the
Lawson Tips system, a tips pay class is required.



**More Information

When you define a deduction in PR05.1 (Deduction), you can include a
portion of the employee's pay rather than total gross pay by selecting a pay
class that is tied to the pay summary groups you want to include in the
deduction
calculation. You can define the deduction as a percent of the amount
associated
with the pay class or as an amount per pay class hour.
You can use pay classes in the Lawson Time Accrual system to track specific
types of pay such as vacation, sick, or holiday pay, and in the Lawson
Benefits
system to determine benefit eligibility.

PR20.2 - Pay Summary Group



Use Pay Summary Group (PR20.2) to define pay summary groups. A pay summary
group represents a group of pay codes. The system stores all pay history by
pay summary group.



**Processing Effect

Pay summary groups determine how pay is stored in history, how it is
taxed, and how it prints on payments, direct deposit receipts, and reports.
Pay summary groups also determine if straight time hours and pay, and premium
pay are eligible to be included in the calculation of an employee's regular
rate for overtime. Whether the premium portion of pay is eligible to be
credited
toward total overtime due, is also determined by the pay summary group.
Through
pay summary groups, you can also identify tips pay for tracking in the Lawson
Tips system.



**More Information

Define a pay summary group for each type of pay you want to print separately
on payments, direct deposit receipts, or payroll reports.
You must assign a pay summary group to each pay code defined in PR20.4
(Pay Code). You can associate multiple pay codes with one pay summary group
to print one total.

PR20.3 - Pay Summary Group Relationship



Use Pay Summary Group Relationship (PR20.3) to tie pay summary groups
to pay classes to apply special edits or calculations.
You can tie a pay summary group to more than one pay class to apply
different edits and calculations. If a pay summary group does not require
special edits or calculations, you do not need to define a relationship with
a pay class.

PR20.4 - Pay Code



Use Pay Code (PR20.4) to define a pay code. A pay code represents a
type of pay, how it is calculated, and where it is expensed in the general
ledger.



**Processing Effect


History is stored according to the pay summary group and the pay code.

PR20.5 - Tax Exemptions



Use Tax Exemptions (PR20.5) to identify tax deductions from which a
specific pay summary group is either exempt from taxes, or is subject to
update
taxable wages only.
For example, sick pay is not subject to state unemployment taxes in
certain states. You can use this form to identify the pay summary group
representing
sick pay as exempt from the deduction for state unemployment tax.
For noncash pay summary groups, you can specify that taxable wages are
updated by the amount of the noncash pay summary group, but no tax is
withheld.

job codes connected with a pay code.
