In this step, you specify which wage types are to be posted, how often they are to be posted within the evaluation of one payroll result, and the symbolic account to be used for each posting.

You can also maintain the following posting characteristics:

  1. Plus/minus sign

    The system stores wage types with a plus (+) or minus (-) sign in the payroll result. How specific wage types are stored depends on how the system processes them during the payroll run. In the standard system, the sign is usually set correctly for secondary wage types. If you enter a plus sign (+) in the V column, positive amounts are posted as debits, and negative amounts are posted as credits. If you enter a minus sign (-) in the V column, positive amounts are posted as credits and negative amounts are posted as debits.

  2. Processing a wage type

    You can use the processing type to assign posting characteristics of a wage type to the following business processes:

    • Posting payroll results
    • Posting month end accruals
    • Supplying personnel cost data to Cost Planning
  3. Symbolic account
  4. Account assignment type

    The account assignment type determines which account type is to be used for posting. It is defined by the symbolic account, and can only be displayed in this column.

  5. Indicator specifying whether the cost assignment for infotypes Recurring payments/deductions (0014), Additional payments (0015), and Employee remuneration information (2010) should be ignored (table C1).

    You only use this indicator if you want the system to ignore a different cost assignment when posting the wage type.

Recommendation

You should not change the setting for the secondary wage types /5nn. If you do want to change the settings for these wage types, ensure first that your requirements are not covered by the settings in the standard system. For more information on the standard settings, refer to the documentation on the relevant wage types.

We recommend that you make no retroactive changes to posting characteristics of wage types. However, some errors can be resolved by retroactive changes in combination with retroactive accounting. All instances of this kind should be checked carefully. In each case, contact your consultant or SAP before you make retroactive changes to posting characteristics of wage types.

Retroactive changes are not permitted for periods for which payroll was run using an R/3 System below 4.0A. Retroactive changes to payment wage types are also not permitted. Note that this description is not comprehensive, and retroactive changes to posting characteristics of wage types in other system constellations may also not be permitted.

Activities

To check the standard settings or current settings, perform the following steps for each wage type:

  1. In the Wage type overview, check the time-dependency for posting wage types.
  2. In the view Posting a wage type, check the posting characteristics of the wage types.
  3. If you want to post a wage type several times, create one or more new entries in the view Posting a wage type.

Additional hints

We recommend that, for expense wage types, you post the individual wage types and not the amount included in the total gross amount. The reason for this is that only the individual wage types determined during the payroll run from master data information have the relevant account assignment.

If the standard system does not provide sufficient differentiation for account determination, you can override the symbolic account determination per wage type using the function module exit EXIT_RPCIPE00_001 (SAP enhancement PCPO0001).
