The document discusses key concepts related to payroll processing in SAP, including running payroll, required inputs, outputs, and posting. It describes elements like payroll areas, control records, wage types, schemas, functions, and reports used to view and manage payroll configuration and results.

2.  What is meant by running of Payroll?
 What do you require to run payroll?
 How do you run payroll?
 What output should you look for?
 How is payment made?
 What is meant by Payroll Posting?

3.  Payroll Driver
 Transaction PC00_MXX_CALC
 Results stored in Tables
 Table PCL2 (You can view them by Transaction
PC_PAYRESULT)
 Functionally,
 Employee wages are calculated and become ready to be
paid
 Taxes are calculated
 Third-Party payments are calculated (Pension, Insurance,
Loans)

4.  PA Information (Employee’s Perspective)
 Payroll Area* (Available in Infotype 1)
 Infotype 8 (Basic Pay)*
 Infotype 14 (Recurring Payments and Deductions)
 Infotype 15 (Additional Payments)
 Infotype 267 (Additional Off-Cycle Payments)
 Payroll Schema (From the System’s Perspective)*
 Transaction PE01
 Payroll Control Record*
 Transaction PA03

5.  Set Payroll Control Record
 Select an Employee
 Run Transaction PC00_MXX_CALC
 Enter the Payroll Schema
 Enter Options:
◦ Offcycle Payments (Reason)
◦ Payslip Form Variant

6.  Key is : Successful Payroll Run (No Errors)
 Result Table (RT)
 Wage Types & Amounts
 Infotype 3 (Payroll Status) gets updated

7.  Payroll has been Run, Payment info has to go to
the Bank of the Employee
 Infotype 9 (Bank Payments) contains details
 Running Pre-DME (Transaction
PC00_MXX_CDTA)
 Run Number is generated, this is fed to DME
Program.

8.  Functionally,
 Transfers Payroll Run Info to FI Tables
 Run by Transaction PC00_M99_CIPE
 Results:
 Posting Runs: (Transaction PCP0)
 Each posting run contains one or more posting documents
 Technically,
 Generates IDoc of Message Type HRPAYP (IDoc can be
checked with Posting Doc no. in Transaction WE09)

9.  A group of employees for whom payroll should be run
together, and at the same time.
 Defaulted for an Employee using Feature ABKRS.
 Each payroll area has its own control record.
 Payroll Areas are configured in V_T549A.
 Some important properties of Payroll Area
 Period Parameter: Frequency of Payroll
 Date Modifier: Suppose there are payroll areas with same period
parameter, say monthly. But you want to have different pay dates
for different employee groups - 1st of month for regular employees,
10th for pensioners, say. The Date modifier/ Period parameter can
be maintained in View V_T549S_B (Period related date entries).

10.  Used to lock a payroll area for use
 Transaction PA03 or Tables T569V & T569U
 Statuses:

11.  Elements:
 Payscale Type: Sector of industry for which the collective agreement is
valid.
 Payscale Area: Geographical area in which a collective agreement is valid
 Payscale Group: Criteria used to classify data for job evaluations and
indirect valuations
 Payscale Level: Subdivisions of pay scale groups
 Other features:
 Defined in V_T510
 Payscale Structure is specified in Infotype 8 (Basic Pay) of the
Employee
 Payscale Type & Area are defaulted based on Feature TARIF
 Wage Types are defaulted in Infotype 8 based on feature LGMST

12.  A unit of salary
 Examples: Basic Pay, Shift Allowance, Medical
Insurance Premium, Pension Deduction, Tax
 Wage types are stored in Table T511 (Wage Type
Master Table). Additionally, they
 Have 4 character names
 Can exist with same name for different countries

13.  Restricts the Wage Type
 Infotype Permissibility (View V_T512Z)
 Personnel Area / Personnel Subarea
Permissibility (View V_511_B)
 Employee Group / Employee Subgroup
Permissibility (View V_511_B)

14.  Primary Wage Types
A. Dialog wage types that you enter when maintaining master data in the infotypes.
B. Time wage types that the system forms using time information or that you enter online.
 Secondary Wage Types
 Secondary wage types are technical wage types generated by the system in Payroll
during the payroll run.
 The technical name of a secondary wage type always starts with the character (/), for
example, /001
 Secondary wage type are technical wage types. Technical
wage types are system defined. Its starts with "/". Like
series:
/0: Valuation basis
/1: Cumulation wage type
/2: Averages
/3,/4,/6: Taxation
/5: Retroactive handling or net
/8: Factoring wage types
/A,/x; Outflow wage types
/559 stands for bank payment
