Multiple Pay Codes deduct from Leave Plan

unknown

Hello! We are a relatively new team of Lawson technical/HR admin and are working to overhaul some of the Leave Pay Code setup in our system. Can anyone advise on whether the following is possible?:

We would like to set up multiple pay codes to debit the same leave time balance. For instance, if the annual leave bucket has 40 hours in it, we would like to have one pay code, representing vacation time, deduct from that annual leave time bucket; and another pay code, representing FMLA time, also deduct from that same annual leave time bucket. Is this possible?

Thanks for any guidance, 

Frances

Hey Frances,



Welcome to Lawson! I was new to the system 6 years ago, but found there were plenty of resources to help navigate the system. Support has always been helpful in the past as well.



To answer your question - yes that is technically possible. There are quite a few fields that need to be considered:



1. LP08 - Service Class: Define a new service class here (i.e. LEV).



2. LP08.2 - Service Code: Be sure to have the service code listed as an event. In addition the reason code would need to be defined on LP09.2 - Reason Code so Lawson knows to deduct the bank in question.



3. LP08.3 - Service Class and Code Relationship: Create a master service class that would encompass all of these service codes (i.e. LEV). Enter the service codes that would apply to this configuration.



4. LP02 - Plan Structure: On Payroll Rule enter the newly created service class on the 1st tab of this item.



Bear in mind the Service Codes should be linked to the applicable pay codes on PR20.4 in the box "Service Code" or else Lawson will never decrement the bank.



I think that covers everything, but please let me know if I missed a step or 2. Thanks!
