Human Resources: Main Developments in Release 4.0A

Overview of New Developments in Payroll Accounting

The Payroll Accounting application component includes numerous developments applicable to all country versions.

Restructuring of the Application Component Hierarchy

The Application Component Hierarchy (ACH) and the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Payroll Accounting were restructured to simplify procedures and process flows.

European Monetary Union

Currencies in the Payroll Accounting application component are no longer determined using the company code table (T001). Instead, currencies are defined by a new, HR-specific currency table (T500C) that is time-dependent. The introduction of this function guarantees flexible payroll accounting in line with the requirements of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU).

Payroll Log

The payroll driver features a newly developed log. Complex calculations process large quantities of data during a payroll run. Logging the program flow assists in testing Customizing settings during the introductory phase, and in analyzing and troubleshooting during regular payroll runs. The new design of the log interface affords a clear presentation of payroll procedures, and simplifies analysis.

Cluster Directory for Payroll Results

Cluster directory enhancements previously only available to the USA, Canada and Japan, are now available in all country versions. Conversion takes place through XPRA RPU40ACD.

Archiving

Archiving of HR payroll data is a new function introduced with this release. The HR Archiving transaction (PU22) files archiving objects from payroll results (PA_CALC) and time evaluation results (PA_TIME). HR Archiving ensures consistent datasets in HR Personnel Time Management and Payroll Accounting through user guidance and plausibility checks. The system automatically considers retroactive accounting limits, component integration and legal provisions for Switzerland, Spain and Germany. Customizing settings are not required.

Absence Valuation

Customizing for Absence Valuation was simplified with the introduction of day rules and clear table maintenance.

Incentive Wages

Incentive Wages features the following developments:

  • Cost assignment of time tickets for payroll accounting
In the standard system, actual costs are debited from the sender cost center, and at the same time credited to the employee's master cost center.
  • Changes to incentive wages forms
In the event of retroactive accounting, it is now possible to print subsequent time tickets with retroactive accounting differences using the Remuneration Statements report (RPCEDTx0).
  • Change to wage type maintenance
Wage types for incentive wages are now maintained in logical views.

Forms

The HR form editor is located in Customizing. It is a tool used to structure forms for diverse applications. Compared to the old procedure for maintaining views (still supported by the system), the HR form editor affords numerous advantages for implementation. For example, all HR forms are now stored in a form directory. Each form in this directory is assigned a form class as well as technical characteristics.

Payroll Accounting forms can now also be displayed in alternative currencies.

Posting to Accounting

The interface for posting payroll results to accounting was redesigned. Data selection and the selection of posting documents now takes place in a separate report that creates a posting run and reporting document for posting. The transaction Edit run (PCPO) streamlines further processing of posting runs and posting documents. The changes support accurate posting as well as simplify procedures.
