In this step you initialise your "Snapshot" file for the employee groups that are "Going Live" for the Standard Interface. If you ONLY run Year End runs then this step can be omitted.

Example

The Standard CLASS Interface extracts changes in the source database (SAP system) and puts the information in a file format that is readable by the target system (Heywood's or similar).

To recognise changes in an employee's data, a record of the LAST data that was "interfaced" is held for each employee. This is known as a "Snapshot" as it is a view of the database at a specific point in time.

When the interface is run the current data in the employee's infotypes and Payroll Data is examined and compared with that on the employee's LAST "Snapshot".

Requirements

Standard settings

There is a "house-keeping" report provided to reduce the amount of redundant data that is kept on your database. It clears down the old "Snapshot" records & "Control" records (RPUCLSG8). This routine is accessible via the standard GB Payroll Menu under "Year End" processing.

"TemSe" files can be read, downloaded to your PC or deleted using the standard handling in transactions (SP11 & SP12), which are found under "Tools"-->"CCMS"(Computing Centre Management System)-->"Spool".

Recommendation

This "Snapshot" file MUST be created to be able to record changes from that point in time.

If it is NOT created correctly, then the data that is interfaced as the "delta" or changes form the last interface will not be correct.

Activities

Simply run a "normal" interface for your employee groups as they "Go Live" on the SAP system and then DO NOT interface the file that is created. This go live date would normally be the pay date before the first payroll using your SAP system.

Further notes

The parameters used in the "Go Live" run MUST be the same as the parameters used in the "Per Period" runs that happen subsequently. Further help on the parameters used in this interface report can be read by using the "Application Help" option under the "Help" menu, when inputting the parameters.
