PeopleSoft Payroll Functional
Job role: PeopleSoft Payroll Functional Duration: 1 week Location: Remote Overall Need:
- From the UI/HR side, the client believes this is primarily a functional configuration task.
- They need to configure new earning codes related to the Big Beautiful Bill (federal) updates, particularly around overtime (OT) (tips are uncertain at this time).
- The W-2 form is already updated; the main remaining task is ensuring the correct earning codes are configured so they flow properly into tax definitions and W-2 reporting.
Functional Configuration Scope
- Primary task is configuring earning codes in the Earnings Code Table.
- These earning codes must:
- Be selectable in tax definitions
- Appear correctly on employee W-2 forms
- Be configured with proper Finance/General Ledger (GL) mappings
- The client may also need:
- Written configuration specs
- Validation to ensure new earning codes do not impact other systems
Current System Environment
- PeopleSoft HCM 9.2 - Payroll module
- Payroll processes are already established and functioning.
- System has been in use for approximately 10 years and is stable.
- Backend tax definitions are already in place.
- If earning codes are configured correctly, the system should support the required updates.
Business & Payroll Impact Considerations
- Client is not fully certain how the changes will impact daily payroll operations.
- It is unclear:
- Whether tips apply to their workforce
- Whether union employees are affected
- Whether there are penalties tied to compliance timing this year
- They do know that overtime (OT) earnings are applicable.
Documentation & Knowledge Gap
- The HR team believes they could follow documentation, but:
- They do not want to be responsible for the configuration alone.
- They want an experienced SME/Functional resource to:
- Guide them step-by-step
- Show how to configure earning codes properly
- Train HR staff on usage
- Provide oversight and validation
Testing Support Needed After configuration, the resource will need to:
- Support testing of new earning codes
- Validate that payroll results are accurate
- Ensure changes do not negatively impact payroll or reporting
