In this step you create the different rules for you Absence Evaluation Schemes.

Example

Step 1: Seniority and Age Bands.

Your scheme has two specific seniority bands, "Starters" upto 6 months and "Others" over 6 months, but is not age specific.

Set up the two rules for your scheme; (also see "Further Notes" below)
The first with a seniority on 0 - 5 Months and NO age band.
The second with a seniority of 6 - 99999 Months and NO age band.

For each rule enter a period of validity that has a date far enough in the past to incorporate ALL you Absence History (Infotype 2001) i.e. 01.01.1990 and also a date far enough in the future not to require regular updating i.e. 31.12.9999.

Step 2: Enter the Entitlement Bands for each Scheme Rule.

Select a specific Scheme Rule (see Activities below). Then create Entitlement Bands for each Absence Grouping, Payment Band and Rollback periods necessary to fulfil the requirements of your scheme for that Seniority and Age Band.

Step 2: Part 1. The Entitlement Amount & Unit.

The �Amount� allows any integer amount up to 999999.

The �Unit� field ONLY allows units that have been set up as available to be used as �Entitlement Amount� units (Table T5GPBS28).

If the unit is NOT Days OR Entitlement Weeks, then the Unit MUST have EITHER been entered in the Time Unit Multiplier (Table T5GPBS24).
OR have been coded in the CUSTOMER "EXIT EXIT_SAPLHRGPBS_OSP_OMP_LEN".

Step 2: Part 2. The Absence Grouping

The �Personnel Subarea Grouping for Absence Types� field simply allows more flexibility when customising the Absence Groupings. Normally this is the same as the Country Grouping (MOLGA).

The �Absence Category� field is used for grouping different Absence Subtypes, so that they ALL reduce one entitlement.

The �Absence Category Exclusive� check box is used to specify how strict the check for grouping different Absence Subtypes should be. If the check box is �ticked� then BOTH characters are checked. If not then only the first character is checked.

When processing an absence, the lines in the relevant seniority banding are ordered by priority and then checked that they match the Absence Grouping criteria. The �Personnel Subarea Grouping for Absence Types� is derived for the employee and then the Absence Category is derived from the customising of the Absence Subtypes (Table T554S-ABSTY). The comparison between the absence and each line in the rule is performed to check which lines are applicable to this absence.

Step 2: Part 3. The Payment Band

The �Priority� field, as explained above, is simply to make sure that an order is given to the processing of applicable payment bands, i.e. Full Pay is before Half Pay etc.

The �Payment Valuation Rule� field is directly related to the way that this entitlement in this line will be paid. The Valuation Rules that are available for selection in this View Cluster are set up in the customising of the Valuation Rule Groupings (Table T5GPBS27). The Valuation Rules are customised using T554C and mostly create wage types during PAB, which can be configured to pay the correct amounts.

Step 2: Part 4. The Rollback Period

The �Start Rule� field is simply to select the Check Window Start Rule.

The �End Rule� field is simply to select the Check Window End Rule.
Once both rules have been specified, the window to check for used entitlement is fully defined for this line.

The �Non-Qualifying Rule� field specifies which days during an absence qualify to reduce the employee�s entitlement and which don�t.

The �Warning Days� field is used purely for message generation. During absence entry in Infotype 2001, in the Entitlement Forecast Report and during payroll this field is checked for this line. If the amount of entitlement will be used up within the warning period, by this or a later absence, then a warning message is issued.

There is further help available (at field level) to explain the entries necessary in each field.

Step 3: Check the Schemes

The nature of the View Cluster tool is such that it is not easy to get an overview of all the Scheme Rules at once. The push-button "Scheme Overview" has been added to each screen of the View Cluster to aid in the checking of your schemes.

Requirements

You must already have set up your scheme identifiers and any other Background Customising that is necessary for your schemes and was NOT released as standard by SAP.

Standard settings

Recommendation

The SAP standard schemes are 'SAPM' for Monthly Salaried Employees and 'SAPW' for Weekly Waged Employees. These can be used as an example of a possible schemes.

Activities

Select a specific Rule in a Scheme, by clicking on the �selection� box next to the scheme id and then �double� click on the Entitlement Bands in the 'Dialog Structure'. This will display the Entitlement Bands for the Scheme and the Rule Number selected.

Further notes

Each rule is for each of your different seniority or age bands, that are stipulated in the rules of your scheme. The ranges of the bands are inclusive, i.e. A seniority band of 0 � 1 Years implies that if an employee has a seniority of 1 year and 355 days then they will still be within the band. The calculation is performed using the time unit specified, rounding down to the nearest whole number.
