I did an upload with HR511 and the pep-effect-date field did not have a description. It appears to be placed on the PA13 under 'effective date'. I'm ASSUMING that this is the date that the employee got into that position. One person thought that it was HIRE date..but that does not make sense to me if someone was hired in 1987 and has been through 5 positions, it would seem each position would show the date that they entered that position. The PA13 has an 'Assignment date' w...

After the upgrade, we are having issues with common department names in different process levels. Before the upgrade, the home process level was the default. Now the process level is required. How do you deal with departmens transfers within a process level

Hi everyone :) If I am adding a new age rate table with new premiums effective 9/1 to an already existing benefits plan, do I apply the premiums to each employee enrolled in the plan by running BN105 through 9/1 Do I first have to run BN105 through 8/31 and then run it again through 9/1   I am not updating the coverage amount, only the premium based on age.  Is there any other job that needs to be run other than the BN105   When I run the job in report mode it ...

Is there any automated way to have an employee created as a vendor on AP10 so that they can be reimbursed by AP

Wondering if someone has used the basic Lawson product (S3 and yes, we are upgrading) - without customization - for a tuition reimbursement plan  I would like to be able to put in the annual amount the individual employee is approved for (budget) and then track reimbursements as they are made.  Ideally, I would be able to project this into the future.  For example - I apply for tuition reimbursement and am approved for $3,000 each year for 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. I k...

Any thoughts on how to correct the Gl for a PR195 run for last year with the wrong percent

Please send link to Lawson S3 Benefits Admin Manual PDF.  Version 10.0.5.

Our organization was acquired by a much larger one and they moved our HR / Payroll / Benefits to their non-Lawson system. Since we were no longer using Lawson for payroll or benefits we discontinued our BSI support and, per the contract, had their application removed from our Lawson system. However - someone in our HR department uses Lawson to keep track of any sort of training or classes our employees take here on site. (The new org's system makes that extremely difficult, hence the desire to u...

I am setting up a .csv file for a BN531.  This is for 403B and Roth upload.  I am getting an error 'After-tax contrib exceeds maximum limit'.  We are able to key in 4 into the BN32 but it is not being accepted via the .csv file for an upload usingn BN531.  We are using Lawson 9.01 (sorry, not upgraded to 10 - yet).   Thoughts  THANK YOU!

Have any of you created a deduction class for your employee 403B/401K contributions separate from the deduction class used for the employer match   We are currently using the same deduction class for both.  However, it has never been an issue because we do not print the employer match on employee pay stubs.  We would now like to print the match on pay stubs, but with using the same deduction class, it combines everything into one deduction. I'm not sure if using separate deduc...

We have never used the Fee set up on garnishments.  I am trying to set it up for a PA tax levy and having difficulty getting it to be deducted. Any help/insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm trying to run a report in my report writing tool for Worker's Comp Wage Statements, and I need data off of the paychecks on PR51.  Does anyone know what table that data sits on  I've been trying to find it all morning. I can find the deductions from the checks, but I'm having a hard time finding the income/pay codes. Thank you in advance!

I have employees that work in different facilities, each facility has it's own pay plan (pp1 max hours a day = 10; pp2 max hours a day = 12). The employees have one of these pay plans associated on their HR11 record. However, the employees could work in the other facility, and I was hoping that if I added a second position to the employee record, and then passed the position in on the time record, the OT program (PR132) would use the pay plan associated with the position passed. Does anyone else...

I recently attended an Intellius webinar where I learned about their Online Benefits Enrollment Enhancement tool.  I'm curious to know about any other Lawson Partners that might have a similar product  Is anyone using Intellius for online enrollment  Or any other vendors for that matter.  What has been your experience, both positive and negative  Many thanks! 

We are in the process of adding support for sick leave accrual in our system.  If we have the data from a 3rd party system, does anyone have any experience with how to get that data into S3  More specifically, how to get it to display on the pay stub

I am looking for someone who is using Lawson Mobile Employee (S3 or Classic Lawson).  We seem to be having trouble installing it.  Last notes I saw was it was retuning an error code 16 - Lawson is unable to find the attribute. I hope you can help. Thanks.

I know MHC is a recommended company, but can anyone else name some others that offer solutions for online w2 and checks, as well as check and w2 printing, 1095's etc etc.   Any help would be appreciated.   Thanks!

We are offering employees a benefit this year that requires them to sign-up on an external site.  We use the Lawson provided benefit enrollment for our annual open enrollment as well as for new hires.  Has anyone found a way to do this link  The thought from our HR team is that the employee would be shown the external site as part of the enrollment and then brought back to the Lawson enrollment seamlessly.  And it needs to not count toward idle timeout.   Thanks in ad...

We are having an issue where the workers comp state on the tax tab of HR11 is randomly changing.  This appears to only be occurring for new hires and no one else.  There is no pattern in what it is changing to.  We have had over 300 since January.  They all have different job codes, different actual work locations and different original workers comp states and different 'new' workers comp states.   There is no history record created when the change occurs. We have his...

How does one enter an exemption for FICA due to J1 visa status.

I know you can do an ACH override and have the payment go to the default ACH only.  A question came up about being able to run a mini payroll.  I don't see a comparable field on the PR140. Am I missing something Is this going to require and Enhancement Request

We are changing our life insurance rates mid-year.  No new plan changes or table changes, simply a rate change on our basic life plan.  I updated the rates with a new effective date of 8/1/2017 on both the rate table and the contribution tab on the BN15.  I proceeded to run the BN105 using an 8/1/2017 effective date to update the rates and BN105 is not acknowledging the change in premiums.  Am I missing a step  How do I ensure that everyone who is currently en...

I am trying to set up criteria on an employee group (HR55.3) using specific job codes without having to include each one individually.  This particular group ends with a specific letter (Q).  I've tried to include asterisks (*Q) or (*Q*). What am I missing  Is there a way to do this

How do you determine that a change has occurred on the HR06  We have to do a changes only file to our ATS and cannot determine how to identify when a change has occurred on the Job Code (HR06).     Our comp team currently does not change the effective date when they make a change to the job code, including inactivating it.
