Labor Distribution Adjustments is a system within Oracle Financials that allows authorized users to distribute payroll earnings, which are paid by the PeopleSoft Payroll system, to the appropriate charge accounts (PTAs). For more information, refer to Labor Schedules and Pay Allocations and Labor Distribution Adjustments (LDAs).
New LDA enhancements implemented May 18, 2024 add organization suspense account (OSA) rejection details to the OSA Transactions section of the At-A-Glance page.
About
The Labor Distribution Adjustments system is specifically designed to allow users to create and manage labor distribution adjustments (LDAs).
- LDAs are used when payroll earnings post to an incorrect PTA or to an Organization Suspense Account. A correcting entry is made to move the payroll charges to an appropriate PTA.
- LDAs require approval based on the PTA charged. Approvers must have Labor Distribution approval authority granted in the Authority Manager application over the Task Owning Org of the PTA being charged.
