In this IMG activity, check the absence types for your different personnel subarea groupings. You can also specify checks to be performed by the system when you enter an absence.
Example
You want to define the Educational leave absence type for a particular personnel subarea grouping. When this absence is recorded for an employee and the begin or end date is a day off, the system should reject the entry.
Requirements
You have maintained personnel subarea groupings for absence and attendance types.
Standard settings
The standard SAP system contains examples for personnel subarea 20, which is used for Payroll Norway.
There are four possible system reactions when absences are entered on days off:
E - System rejects the entry
W - System accepts the entry but issues a warning message, which must be confirmed by selecting Enter
S - System accepts the entry but draws the user's attention to the fact that it is a day off
BLANK - System accepts the entry
Recommendation
When you set up a new absence type, copy one that has already been defined. Choose an absence type that is similar to the one you want to set up.
Note: When you copy an absence type, the system does not only copy the information you can see in this step. A number of settings that are stored in other views are also copied. Familiarize yourself with the configuration options before you copy absence types.
Activities
Select the absence type you want to define for your company.
Select the entries for following situations:
First day of the absence is a day off
Last day of the absence is a day off
Entire period consists of days off
Enter the minimum duration of the absence in the Minimum duration field. If you want to define an absence that can last less than one day, for example, leave, enter 000 in this field.
In the Maximum duration field, you can limit the duration of an absence, for example, illness with continued pay.
Default value 999 - Unlimited absence
Default value 000 - Only absences of less than one day
