Report Logic

A record reports for each employee with a TRA deduction from the pay period being reported and payroll run on the selected Pay Period End Date.

When the Allocated Pay Period, Current Position, Transaction Type and Payment Type are the same on multiple records for a single employee, the report combines the records and reports the sum of the amounts in the Salary Sign (field 6) and TRA Deduction (field 9) fields.

For more information about submitting a report to the batch queue, see the Batch Queue article.
