Pay groups are essential elements that define how the different types of performances are sorted and accumulated. These pay groups have to be carefully linked in each employee definition. They provide information concerning the pay periods, paydays, calculation types and certain specific parameters that cannot be linked to a particular day (weekly basis, carryover maximum, etc.). In addition, each pay group has its own specific holiday calendar.
Since a lot of elements of the pay group have a decisive effect on calculations, we strongly recommend to creating a new pay group rather than changing elements of an existing one.
