The system allows you to process only confirmed payrolls that have not yet had the GL Interface process run on them. When you run the GL Interface process, the system selects the GL Interface Run check box on the Pay Calendar table. If you must rerun the GL Interface process, you must first run the GL Reset Run Flag process. You can run the process only for payrolls that you haven't published to PeopleSoft General Ledger.
This process:
Deletes all rows on the HR Accounting Line table for the pay run ID that is specified on the reset process run control.
Deselects the GL Interface Run and GL Distribution Runcheck boxes on the Pay Calendar table for the pay run ID that you specified on the reset process run control page.
Note: Running this process is necessary only if you have made a change that requires rerunning the GL Interface process. If you do not have to rerun the GL Interface process for the pay run ID, then you do not run this reset process.
