1) Internal business procedures and policies

The items in this document, and corresponding links and guides on the help centre, can be used to build the internal business procedures and policies for the use of EE (Easy Employer).

Any user of EE should be referring to internal business documentation before contacting EE support as each organisation could have custom workflows and ways of using EE that are not documented here or on the help centre.

 

2) Procedures

i) Employee/user import

When a new employee is added to Preceda, or existing employee details have been updated, these need to be imported into EE. The frequency as to when this is done depends on the client but as this process is very quick, we would recommend after each new employee or update is done in Preceda:

vii) Assigning employees to pay conditions

Employees pay conditions are assigned manually as this cannot be imported from Preceda due to Preceda API limitations (they do not provide enough information to map to pay conditions).

Assigning pay conditions guide here

 

viii) Non-Export Entity to not export to Preceda

If the employee is not being exported to Preceda, their home payroll entity needs to be changed to the “Non-Export Entity”

4) Error handling

i) The Payroll Report 

The shift assigned to XX, XX has pay records with no cost centre assigned.

 This warning is to tell the payroll team that there are pay records with no cost centres assigned. 

 The guide here explains how to add cost centres to roles.   The cost centre report can be used to see what cost centres are assigned to roles. 


ii) Timesheet leave shifts 

The timesheet leave shifts will create based on the standard hours and days set in the user's award pay group screen. 

Timesheet shifts can also be manually adjusted if the standard hours and days change frequently.
