📅 Scheduled payment date vs effective date

Workday October 29th, 2023 2 minute read.

When a one-time payment in Workday has different scheduled payment and effective dates, when does it show up in payroll?

A one-time payment with different effective and scheduled payment dates.

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.
