In this step, you generate and maintain the posting date for each payroll period of a payroll area. This setting is relevant if you set the According to period definition indicator as a default when you create the posting run.

Accounting components use the posting date to determine the posting period to which postings are to be made.


Example

A company runs payroll monthly for a payroll area. You want to generate the posting dates for all the periods from 2000 to 2004.

Requirements

  • A period parameter and a date modifier are assigned to each payroll area.
  • You must have generated the payroll periods for all combinations of these two parameters. In this process, the system creates the start date, the end date and the payment date for each period.

Activities

    1. Select a country.
    2. In the selection screen, make the required Parameter entries.
      3. The displayed selection of modifiers and parameters varies according to country. For more information on each field, refer to the F1 help.
    3. Choose 01 as the source date ID for the Payment date. (Reason: In Payroll, the reference date for the generation of various period-related date types is a payment date that is derived from the payroll periods).
    4. Choose 04 as the target date ID for the Posting date.
    5. In the Difference in days field, enter the required period between payment date and posting date. If you do not make an entry, the posting date and payment date are identical.
    6. If you want to save as well as generate the simulation of the posting date, set the Carry out table change indicator.
