Currently employee's function lines may no longer be in cycle but they are entitled to the retro pay. In Ontario teachers can work contract for plenty of years before securing a permanent position, therefore there cycles and function lines will change. They are not terminated / inactive so the prompt in the User Specific Parameters Profile will not pick up these employees. Current work around is to add all cycle codes to payroll calendar, run retro process to be manipulated and then uploaded. After report is completed, remove cycles from the payroll calendar.

Thanks for your idea for a new feature. The idea review committee discussed this suggestion and found that this was a timing issue due to the fact retro was paid in a summer month. Additionally, a better way of processing this would have been to run a special pay run against September when everyone is in cycle so that everyone would be included, then on the special pay calendar you can override all employees to on-leave with benefits by activating the OLWB pay cycle. This would allow the retro to be run first before the September pay.
Hi Pam, I think we have a better understanding of the issue. It sounds like it comes back to not having a function line history, which you have already voted on. It is still great to have the background scenarios of why function line history would be useful. I will merge this idea into https://atrieve.ideas.aha.io/ideas/AERP-I-1425 so we retain that history/detail.

Thank you, how would running against September help if an employee was still in a different cycle come September? Also, if the summer pays are not complete how do you run against a september pay? We do not have much turn around time as the province may say retro to be paid within 30 days of ratification. Possibly I am misunderstanding?
