Pension Scheme and moves from a higher percentage to a lower percentage.
The payroll team can then look for this message using the Payroll
Exception Report and then decide whether the employee has been overpaid
salary or not in this case. If they have then they should adjust their
Pensionable Pay (see below for details) and force assessment
retrospectively.
A new override wage type (LGP1) is available to trigger Forced
Assessment in any specific period - see note 2122097 (PY-GB-PS: GBLGP:
Manually Forcing Assessment (Wage Type LGP1)) for more details. This can
be used for ANY scheme where assessment is controlled by GBLGP.
<ZH>GBAPP</> will handle this as follows;
Customers will need to use the Pensionable Pay override wage type E162
(and E163) to adjust Pensionable Pay for these scenarios as the system
won?t be able to know automatically what the adjustments should be in
each affected FOR period. (N.B This will only be necessary in cases
where the reduction in salary causes a change in rate in the current
period ? to a lower rate than used previously.)
