What is the impact of a global transfer on the worker’s payroll relationship record when moving to a different legal employer within the same country?

• A. The payroll relationship will be ended and a new relationship is created.
• B. There is no impact.
• C. It depends on the customer's payroll statutory unit and legal employer structure.
• D. It depends on the customer's payroll statutory unit and tax reporting structure.

Answer: (C)

The key idea is that the effect of a global transfer on a worker’s payroll relationship record is determined by how payroll is organized in your system—specifically, the payroll statutory unit and the legal employer structure you have configured. In Oracle Payroll Cloud, the payroll relationship is tied to both the statutory unit (the entity that defines the payroll rules, tax calculations, and statutory reporting) and the legal employer (the entity under which payroll is run). If the target legal employer within the same country sits under the same payroll statutory unit and uses the same tax reporting setup, the transfer may be handled without ending the existing payroll relationship, with only the necessary updates applied to reflect the move. However, if the move crosses to a different payroll statutory unit or to a legal employer with a different payroll/tax configuration, the system often needs to end the current payroll relationship and create a new one under the new employer to ensure correct payroll processing, tax withholding, and statutory reporting. Therefore, the actual impact is determined by how the customer has structured their payroll statutory units and legal employers.
