[HR] Interfacing from Payroll to HR

Created by Crystal Millington, Modified on Fri, 26 Dec at 11:09 AM by Crystal Millington

Purpose

  • Use this only for initial setup, adding new employees/resources, or adding HR after Payroll is implemented.
  • Do not use it to update static info, benefits, or salary:
    • Static info → HR Resources
    • Benefits/Salary → HR Update Benefit/Salary to PR


Key Concepts

Choose direction:

PR → HR (update HR from Payroll employees)

HR → PR (update Payroll from HR resources)

  • Specify the PR Company and employee/resource range, or initialize all eligible.
  • Optionally exclude inactive employees/resources.

PR → HR: No duplicate SS# or first/last name allowed in HR.

HR → PR: No duplicate PR Employee# or SS# allowed in Payroll; required fields must be completed.


Steps

  1. Open HR Initialize PR Employees in HR module > Programs.
  2. Select direction: Update PR → HR or Update HR → PR.
  3. Choose PR Company (F4 lookup).
  4. Options:
    • Check Initialize All to include all eligible employees.
    • Check Exclude Inactive Employees if needed.
  5. If not initializing all, enter Beginning and Ending Employee # to define a range.
  6. Click Update Grid – eligible employees/resources appear.
  7. Check the Ready box for entries that are ready to initialize.
  8. Click Initialize to complete the update.


Notes & Tips

  • Numbering:
    • If the employee/resource number already exists, the system assigns the next sequential number.
  • Required Fields for HR → PR:
    • PR Co, PR Group, SS#, Department, Earn Code, Craft, Class, Insurance Code, Local Code, Race, Insurance State, Unemployment State
    • If missing, the Ready flag = N and update won’t occur.
    • Use the HR to PR Initialize Check report to identify missing/invalid info.
  • Grid Controls:
    • Clear removes entries from the grid.
    • Yes → clears only entries not ready.
    • No → clears all entries.


Result

  • All eligible employees/resources are initialized to the target module with proper numbers and required data.
