GLOBAL PAYROLL:
Oracle Global Payroll is a high-performance, graphical, rules-based payroll management application. It’s
designed to keep pace with the changing needs of your enterprise and workforce in order to reduce
setup costs, administration, and processing time. It operates globally and consistently in every country
supported by Oracle. It uses a highly scalable processing engine that takes advantage of the features of
the Oracle database for parallel processing, resulting in optimal performance. In countries with payroll
extensions delivered and supported by Oracle, the application delivers the calculations, tax reporting,
and regulatory rules required to accurately process payroll and remain in compliance.
- REDWOOD EXPERIENCE FOR PERSONAL PAYMENT METHODS FOR PROFESSIONAL USERS:
You can now use the new Redwood personal payment method page that is enabled automatically to
view and manage employees’ personal payment methods. - EVENTS: PAYROLL EVALUATION STATUS
You can now view the status of the payroll notification processing for an event and take action as
required. When an event is triggered, the payroll application generates event notifications for features
such as the retroactive recalculation of payroll and retropay for late hires. The Notification Status
attribute supports the following values for an event:
Not Started: Notification processing hasn’t yet started.
Complete: Notification processing is complete.
Error: Notification processing has failed.
Event Canceled: The event has been canceled. - PAYROLL BACKGROUND PROCESS: ENHANCEMENTS
The payroll background process is an ESS process that runs continuously in the background to improve
the performance of payroll features. The payroll application includes safeguards to ensure the process is
running continuously, and if required it’s automatically restarted if it stops for some reason. For
example, the process may stop when a customer experiences server connection issues. - TRANSLATION FIX FOR PAYMENT REGISTER AND THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT REGISTER REPORT
You can now generate the archive-based Payment Register Report and Third-Party Payment Register
reports in the language of your preference. You can configure the Payroll Archiver to store the archived
payroll information in multiple languages. - COMPRESSING REPORT OUTPUT FOR GLOBAL PAYROLL REPORTS

pretax deductions and voluntary deductions. - NUMBER FORMATTING IN PAYROLL GLOBAL REPORTS:
