This IMG activity enables you to set up the required window.

The number of wage types and quantity of data that is wage type-dependent can vary greatly from employee to employee. Thus, payroll results that include values for numerous wage types are a common occurrence for some personnel numbers. For other personnel numbers, payroll results which only include values for a few wage types are more usual. Displaying wage type values as fixed layout items would, therefore, result in inconsistent and incomplete remuneration statement layouts for individual employees. To avoid this, wage types and data that is wage type-dependent are usually displayed in a window.

A window is a freely-defined, rectangular area on a form. It is characterized as follows:

  • The information in the window is only printed on the payroll account if the appropriate values exist for the respective employee in the payroll results.

  • The information in the window is printed without unnecessary blank lines and may, therefore, appear on different lines in different payroll accounts.

    The line on which such information is printed depends on the following factors:

    • the amount of information which is printed in a window for an employee
    • the group number and subgroup number, which determine the sequence in which the wage types are printed and which are assigned in the IMG activity "Set up wage types in window".

      The information printed on each line is generally for one wage type only.

  • The information in the window that is printed for a remuneration statement can be distributed over several pages. This occurs if the information printed for an employee in a window exceeds the number of lines defined for the window.

    Window data for which more than one page is needed always appears in the same, predefined window area.

The above characteristics allow for an employee-specific and complete display of information on a remuneration statement.

Note

You can usually display all wage types and wage type-dependent information in a single window. However, you can also choose to work with more than one window. Should you decide to do so, the individual windows must not overlap.

Please take the following into account when setting up a window.

Size of window

A window is always defined by its four corners. The corners are determined by the line area and column area of the window:

  • The line area is defined by the start line and end line of the window.

  • The column area is defined by the left margin and right margin of the window.

The entry field for the line area consists of three characters and the entry field for the column area consists of three characters.

As a general rule, try to define as large a window as possible to ensure that the information printed in the window is not split up and then printed on more than one page. This should lead to a considerable saving in the amount of paper used for such printouts.

Window identifier

Windows are identified by the window code (such as "F1"). The code always consists of two digits and can be alphabetic and/or numeric.

Note that the window code "SW" has a special meaning and must not be used in new forms.

Example

You want to set up window "F1", which starts in line 13 and ends in line 64, for form "ZK01". The left margin of the window should be in column 00 and the right margin in column 69. To do this, please enter the following:

Window        Line area        Column area

F1        13 64            000 069

The window is identified by window code "F1". The start line and end line as well as the left and right margin of the window are defined under "Line area" and "Column area" respectively.

Activity
