Personnel and Shift Planning - Long Term Temporary Assignments
Long Term and Short Term Temporary Assignments
"Long term" temporary assignments are temporary assignments that exceed the normal planning period, for example, or only start beyond it. The clear formatting makes this functionality more suitable for organizational units with a large number of relatively long temporary assignments, more suitable than the "classic" or "short term" functionality from the shift plan that is aimed more at temporary assignments of a few days. For example, here the temporary assignment information is listed day for day, while the same "long term" temporary assignments are summarized more clearly for the period.
Another difference is that in the newer functionality, the temporary assignment of the employees is separate from the plan of their working hours. This is done to keep the response times as low as possible since the whole shift plan does not have to be imported and managed before it can be temporarily assigned. The same aim requires the additional restriction of the employees - both own or assigned.
The functionality for long-term temporary assignments is activated by the switch PEINS PSABG in table T77S0.
The temporary assignment-specific basic functionality is essentially the same in both cases: new temporary assignments can be created for own employees - provided that they were not saved (designations) - undone. Assigned employees can be returned and the temporary assignment deleted.
Note that you have to click on the icons at the start of the lines if you want to select an employee or a temporary assignment. By double clicking on these icons you can navigate to the basic functions described above.
Initial Period
It is important you select the best initial period that is large enough so that you can continue to make temporary assignments within the planning period and small enough not to waste calculation performance.
Deviating Payment (Assign Costs to an Account)
It is possible to create the temporary assignments with a "deviating payment" in both functionalities, that is, with payment through the cost center of the receiving organizational unit.
In comparison to the "short term" temporary assignment, the account assignment information is no longer attached to a substitution (infotype 2003). It is stored in a cost distribution record(IT0027) with the following constraints: 100% of the costs are written in the first record cost fields (company code, cost center) for the whole temporary assignment period.
If you change this manually, and try to delete the temporary assignment (return of employee), this record is no longer "recognized" and cannot be deleted so it has to remain. It may be necessary to process it manually if there are already cost distribution records in the temporary assignment period. They are not overwritten.
If the service type required field is in the infotype "organizational assignment(IT0001), you have to specify (in some cases with "deviating payment" (cost account assignment), otherwise the account assignment information is incomplete and therefore cannot be used. The default values in the window that appear for them are from IT0001, but can be overwritten.
If there is cost distribution information in IT0027 and account assignment information, for example in a substitution (IT2003) at the same time, the information from IT2003 applies.
However, it is highly recommended to avoid a mixture of classic and long term temporary assignments if a "deviating payment" is wanted.
