The Pay Report Output Maintenance profile module allows you to control which payroll stream reports are printed as well as the printer and form used. This option allows you to add, change or delete payroll report information per payroll stream phase and job number mask. This information controls what, where and how payroll stream reports will be processed, viewed, printed currently and historically (previous pay periods). You may delete the reports from the system after processing and/or printing or keep them for future viewing through the Pay Report Output Review module. A different Pay Report Output Maintenance profile is available for each payroll to allow different payrolls to print to different printers. The profile PRØØSU.DAT is pointed to by the logical SRB$OPSPRO.
When the first element of the Payroll Stream Report Control field (User Specific Parameters profile) is set to 'Y'es, the reports defined to print under this profile will be automatically submitted for printing after the applicable phase of the payroll stream has been completed.
This option requires the definition of the logical SRB$OPSRPT, which points to a global print directory. You must also define SRB$OPSLST and PayØ.
Refer to the Pay Report Output Summary for more details on the pay report output use and purpose.
Processing Phase
Select the processing phase of the payroll stream to maintain. look-up displays the description of each phase.
The MC option is intended for use to view/print any non-payroll stream reports. This profile option only needs one mask definition #######.LST.
Job Mask
-
Enter a combination of '#'s, an alpha character and file extension (e.g. #####L.LST). look-up lists original predefined reports within the current processing phase of payroll. If you have custom reports which are part of a processing phase you can add them. Just key the job mask for the special report. This mask will be used in the review program to construct the report file names for processing.
Report Name
If the report mask entered above is one of the standard reports, the program will supply the default name for the report. You may override the standard name. Enter the report name for identification purposes only.
