Consolidation Set in Oracle Payroll

A Consolidation Set is a means of labelling a collection of Payroll runs. After a payroll Run is complete, it may be required to do some additional processing on a collection of Payroll runs. One example is the Costing process which needs to be run after the Payroll Run.

Defining a Consolidation Set is probably the simplest thing to do in Oracle HRMS :). Just open the Consolidation Set form, click on the new record icon, enter a new name and you are done.

When we define a new Payroll, the consolidation set name is mandatory. While submitting the Payroll Run process, Consolidation Set associated with the Payroll gets populated by default in the SRS window.
Even after a Payroll Run is complete we can update the Consolidation Set by using the Update Payroll Run form.

what is the difference between assignment set and a consolidation set? consolidation set has any relation with the employees? for a FT payroll, there will be a consolidation set created while defining the payroll, that means if we give that consolidation set alone while doing a payroll run, all employees associated with that payroll would be under that payroll ?
