In this step, you set up the payroll areas (accounting areas) that your enterprise needs. The payroll area fulfills two functions that are necessary for payroll:

  • It groups together personnel numbers that are to be processed on the same date.
  • It determines the exact payroll period.

Example

You define one payroll area for salaried employees and one for industrial workers.

Requirements

Get an overview of how many payroll areas you need in your enterprise.

Standard settings

The standard SAP System contains country-specific payroll areas for the usual employee groups.

Recommendation

Determine which employee groups you want to settle separately. On the one hand, this decision depends on whether you want to settle individual employee groups (for example, business and salaried employees) at different times, and, on the other hand, on how detailed you want the evaluations to be with regard to the payroll area.

Activities

  1. Check the standard payroll areas and create new ones if necessary.
  2. Determine for every payroll area whether it may be settled.
