The field is enabled only when the Generic Payroll interface is selected in the External Payroll Software field.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Work Center Dept. | When payroll is generated for a job transaction, labor is posted to the work center associated with the job operation. |
| Employee Dept. | When payroll is generated for a job transaction, labor is posted to the employee's home department. |
The department is included in payroll information exported to the Generic Payroll interface.
The Job Labor Allocation setting affects only job labor transactions. In non-job transactions, such as those for time and attendance, the system uses the department in the employee master record.
