Maternity Pay Period does not start on a Sunday
Help Document

Diagnosis

From the date you have entered in the field Actual Start of MPP, your SAP system recognises that the employee's Maternity Pay Pariod (MPP) does not start on a Sunday. In normal circumstances, the MPP must begin on a Sunday. If the date you have entered does not fall on a Sunday, the official MPP start date is set to the following Sunday.

However, from 6th April 2003, an employee's MPP can begin on any day of the week if:

  • The beginning of the MPP is triggered by a pregnancy-related illness,

    or

  • The beginning of the MPP is triggered by the onset of child-birth.

System Response

Procedure

For employee's whose MPP begins for reasons other than the two special circumstances described above, the official MPP start date is set by your SAP system to the following Sunday.

Should the employee's MPP begin as a result of one of the two circumstances above, the MPP may begin on any day of the week.
