Step 2:-

Formula Type

The application will prompt for the custom *Formula Name, *Type, Description, *LDG and based on the type chosen, a Type of Editor will be displayed.  When creating formula names, it is best practice to use and enforce a unique and consistent naming convention.  There are 122 different types of formulas to choose from in the drop-down and the type chosen will determine the available Database Items and the input values in addition to the appropriate Type of Editor.

Step 5:-

Formula Editors

The most appropriate Type of Editor for a particular Formula Type is determined by the application.  The two Types of Editors are Expression and Text.  The Text Editor will require an Effective Start Date.  Best practice is to use an Effective Date that will precede any Hire Date, e.g. mm/dd/yyyy as 01/01/1951.

Step 7:-

Expression Editor

If the Expression Editor was chosen, the Expression wizard will appear in the Manage Formula Details section in the Local Area of the User Interface.  Instead of writing the Formula text from scratch, the wizard will create the Formula based on the values chosen or entered in the Formula Details fields.

Step 8:-

The user can enter many arguments in the Expression Editor wizard.  The green arrows above the arguments allow the user to determine the sequence (“Add Before” or “Add After”).

Database Items, Functions and Global Values

When the Text Editor is chosen, the user is given more flexibility than with the Expression Editor.  The Text editor asks for completely custom Formula text.  The Formula must be written with the proper Syntax and Structure and the correct Database Items for the particular Formula type can be included.  In the Fast Formula Assistant, the user can search for Database Items, Functions and Global Values (Global Values found in: Payroll Admin > Batch Loader > Globals type).  The user should be aware of the available database items for the particular Formula Type before using them in the Formula.
