Complete Pay Period

This step is the "point of no return" for the job. Once this step has been successfully run, neither this step--nor any step before it--can be run again. Also, the ability to delete the job from the system is lost after this step is accepted.

What Happens:

A request is sent to the Application Server to perform the Complete Pay Period process on all pay periods in the close job. What this process accomplishes includes, but is not limited to, the following:

  • Calendars: Need to have status set to COMPLETE.
  • Requests: Requests set as requested are handled by the System as follows:
    • Transaction Requests: All requests are set to CANCELED by the system. The Approvers Comments field is set to ‘Canceled by Close Pay Period Process”
    • Self-Schedule Trade Requests: The schedule trade status is set to DENIED. The Approvers Comments field is set to “AUTO DENIED by the Complete Pay Period Step”.
    • Offer Requests: All accepted offer requests are set to APPROVED. The Approver's Comments field is set to “AUTO ACCEPTED by the Complete Pay Period Step”. This is always processed even with there is no Staffing and Scheduling License - there should be no data that needs to be updated. This occurs when either of the following are true:
      • The Offering Employee is included in the Pay Group Instance being closed.
      • The Accepting Employee is included in the Pay Group Instance being closed.
    • Bid Requests: Requests are set to CANCELED, and all bids are denied upon the Complete Pay Period step. The Approver's Comments field is set to “AUTO CANCELED by the Complete Pay Period Step”. This is processed always even with no Staffing and Scheduling License - there should be no data that needs to be updated.
