Scheduled payment date vs effective date
When a one-time payment in Workday has different scheduled payment and effective dates, when does it show up in payroll?
Answer: The payment follows the “Scheduled Payment Date”
Workday processes the one-time payment in the on-cycle payroll calculation for the pay period that includes the Scheduled Payment Date.
In Tenant Setup - HCM you can choose to enable or disable Enable Multiple One-Time Payments with a checkbox.
- With Multiple One-Time Payments enabled, the scheduled payment date is visible and can be different for each payment.
- With Multiple One-Time Payments disabled, the scheduled is not displayed and the effective date is the payment date.
