This tutorial is a continuation of Fusion Payroll and how it functions.
The topics covered in this tutorial are:
- Payroll Statutory Units
- Legal Employers
- Tax Reporting Units
- Creating a Legal Entity
- Selecting the Scope of the Legislative Data Groups
- Defining Legal Reporting Units
- Creating Business Units
Payroll Statutory Units
Payroll Statutory Units (PSUs) are legal entities responsible for paying workers, including the payment of payroll tax and social insurance. A payroll statutory unit can pay and report on payroll tax and social insurance on behalf of one or more legal entities. Of course, this depends on the structure of your enterprise.
Legal Employers
A legal employer is a legal entity that employs workers. Legal Employers are captured at the work relationship level. All employment terms and assignments within that relationship are automatically with that particular legal employer.
Tax Reporting Units
Tax Reporting Units are responsible for grouping workers for the purpose of tax and social insurance reporting. They are the Human Capital Management’s version of the legal reporting unit in Oracle Fusion Applications. When a legal entity is selected as a payroll statutory unit, the application transfers the legal reporting units associated with that legal entity to Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management (HCM) as tax reporting units.
There are different configurations for each of the countries, depending on their jurisdictions. And as per the jurisdiction, these configurations are of different complexities, as specified below:
- UAE - Legal Employers and Payroll Statutory Units are the same
- US - Multiple Legal Employers and Tax Reporting Units
- France - One Payroll Statutory Unit and two Tax Reporting Units
- India - One Payroll Statutory Unit and several Tax Reporting Units
- UK - Multiple Payroll Statutory Units with several Tax Reporting Units
