Field Description - Other Pay Amount Paid

The Other Pay Amount Paid is the dollar amount actually paid to an employee for a specific type of other pay.  To calculate the Amount Paid, Payroll applies the rules defined by the Other Pay Method Code to the Other Pay Amount Factor.

Notes:

• The total Other Pay Amount Paid is called the Other Pay Earnings Total.

• Because the Amount Paid and Amount Factor fields often appear as the same name (Other Pay Amount), it is easy to confuse them, especially since the values are the same under certain conditions.  If the Other Pay Method Code is 1 - Flat Amount, then the value for Other Pay Amount Paid is the same as the value for Other Pay Amount Factor.
