Overview

For CSU Labor Cost Distribution (LCD) process the CSU Distribution Override step is optional. Only in certain cases would a campus complete this process.

Before the final journal is created, and once the CSU Paycheck Distribution process has completed successfully and all the CSU Paycheck Distribution Errors have been cleared, a final opportunity is provided to override LCD default distribution. A campus may wish to retrieve distribution records and override the Combination Code information before creating the accounting lines. Based on certain cases, a campus may do one of the following:

  • CSU Earning Dist
    • The user may override the Combination Code to which the earnings have been distributed. The user may split this distribution amount into multiple rows, as long as the Earnings amount sums to the original distribution amount. Changes made on this page will be stored directly on the CSU Pay Earnings Distribution table (CSU_PAY_ERN_DST).

  • CSU Deduction Dist
    • The user may override the Combination Code to which the deductions have been distributed. The user may split this distribution amount into multiple rows per Deduction, as long as the Current Deduction amount sums to the original distribution amount. Changes made on this page will be stored directly on the CSU Pay Deduction Distribution table (CSU_PAY_DED_DST)

  • CSU Tax Dist
    • The user may override the Combination Code to which the taxes have been distributed.

Changes made on this page will be stored directly on the CSU Pay Tax Distribution table (CSU_PAY_TAX_DST)
