The totals frequency defines reinitialization months (for example, January for an annual frequency). When a new payroll is generated so that the employee's last payroll is prior to and the new payroll is posterior or equal to the reinitialization month, the reinitialization of the total is performed on the new payroll.
If the field is not specified, the total is simply reset to zero. Otherwise, the total is assigned to the value resulting from the reinitialization formula assessment. This formula can retrieve any total value before reinitialization.
