Chapter 10: Special Pays –
H10SP – Routine Special Pays

Screen: H10SP
Prerequisites: Check eligibility requirements for special pay.
Key Fields: AGENCY, EMPLOYEE SSN

Note: Some special payments can be set up, changed or stopped on H10SP. Once set up, this special pay is generated on each appropriate payroll if the frequency is other than 00.

Longevity (special pay 06) and hazardous duty (special pay 05) are automatically set up on H10SP and may not be changed by the agency. If overrides are necessary for longevity and hazardous duty, use HUEU1 (see Other One-Time Special Pays and Overrides).

Step Action
1 Access H10SP.
2 Enter I or R in the SUBCOMMAND field.
3 Enter the following fields as required:
AGENCY (Key)
EMPLOYEE SSN (Key)
NO (Required)
Enter the two-digit special pay number.
RATE (Optional)
The hourly rate or percentage to pay for this special payment. Enter the rate in this field or the AMOUNT field, but not both.
AMOUNT (Required)
Enter the amount of the special pay. The system calculates the amount of automatic special pays based on the “trigger” field and values.
FREQ (Required)
00 Stop this special pay
01 First pay period of the month
02 Second pay period of the month
09 Every pay period

Note: Set up a special payment on H10SP if it is a recurring payment. By setting it up here, data entry on HUEU1 each pay period is avoided. To stop a special payment, enter 00 in the FREQ field. Longevity and hazardous duty amounts are calculated with payroll and the amounts cannot be modified on this screen.
