Configure Payroll Rule Qualifiers

Payroll policy qualifiers are used to limit which employees receive the rule or ruleset. For example, you can limit one ruleset to part-time employees and another to full-time employees, by adding an appropriate qualifier to each ruleset.

Assigning qualifiers is an optional configuration step. Without any qualifiers assigned to rules or rulesets, the application applies the rules in a ruleset to every employee assigned to the payroll policy.

The following steps provide general instruction on how to add qualifiers. Like the rules, a qualifier's configuration depends on the values selected for its parameters. See Payroll Rule Qualifiers.

To add qualifiers to a ruleset or a rule:

  1. Go to Payroll Setup > Payroll Policies and select the payroll policy that you want to modify.
  2. Select the ruleset or rule that you want to add a qualifier to.
  3. Click the add icon () and select Qualifier.
  4. Enter a name and, optionally, a description of the qualifier.
  5. Verify that the Active checkbox is selected.
  6. In the Type drop-down list, select a qualifier.
  7. Enter values for the qualifier's parameters.
  8. Click Save.
