Documentation
Definition
Brought-Forward amounts can be treated a positive "+" or negative "-" regardless of whether the amounts are negative or not.
If the total amount Brought-Forward into the current financial year is positive, then all the differences that make up that positive total can be treated positively regardless of whether an individual delta is positive or not. This means that they will create the standard SxPR and SxPN wage types.
However, if the total amount Brought-Forward into the current financial year is negative, then all the differences are processed exactly as they were brought forward originally. But the total negative Brought-Forward amount for the year is counter-balanced by each Previously Brought-Forward negative amount until the balance is zero. Once that point is reached, then from that point on, all Previously Brought Forward negative amounts are treated positively.
In this way, not all entries can be immediately defined. Therefore "?" is also a possible value until the payroll has processed enough of the retroactive payrolls to make a decision one way or the other.
If you must make a split part-way through an existing record, then the split is made and one record will be treated negatively and the remainder positively. In this way, only a balance of zero is created in the standard SxPR and SxPN wage types and the remaining negative amount is created using the exception wage types SxPE.
Use
The SxPE wage types are created to highlight the fact that these negative Carried-Forward amounts must be treated as "overpayments of salary/wages" and cannot be reclaimed.
