This program allows the user of the FACTS system to create and maintain records in the earnings % distribution file.
In some cases, an employee may divide his working hours between departments, thereby requiring more than one general ledger account number for earnings distribution. In those and other appropriate cases, this program is used to record the average percent of earnings (or time) to be distributed to each account number. During the GL distribution report of the Check Register, total earnings are distributed according to the percentages in this file.
The user determines if the GL Distribution Report and/or earnings % distribution features are utilized through flags set through the PR static control record.
Example: An employee is assigned to the following earnings GL posting table:

The employee earns the following:

If the Use Earnings Distribution flag is set to N, the system uses the GL table to distribute the earnings as follows:
Debit
570-00-00 Salaries-Regular 1000.00
572-00-00 Salaries-Vacation 1000.00
575-00-00 Salaries-Commission 500.00
If the Use Earnings Distribution flag is set to Y, and there is an earning % distribution record set up for the employee in the pay cycle, the system uses the earnings % distribution from the Earnings % Distribution F/M program. If the earnings % distribution is set up as follows:
