Advance Payment Contribution Statement

If the Flag transfers indicator is flagged, then only the differences to the contributions that have already been transferred are calculated in a later run for the same month.

Use

Use this indicator:

  • If you must pay fund contributions in advance. This is the case when you finish Payroll after the 15th day of the following month as social insurance contributions must be paid before this date.
    The advance payment can be used for additional benefits (for example, BVV, PVW, and so on).
  • If you pay salaries before the 15th of the current month and you can not complete Payroll before the 25th of the current month.

If too much is paid to a fund in an advance run or the fund contribution is negative because of retroactive changes, a credit will be accumulated for each fund on storing. For subsequent contribution payments (in the following month) the contributions to be paid will be credited with the credit accumulated.
If such a credit is accumulated for a fund and you get back contributions from the fund without crediting a subsequent contribution payments, you must delete the credit in table T5D16 (Entry without transfer date).

Attention, cause of error!

Differences can only be calculated without errors if on creating the contribution statements with the reports

  • RPCSVBD0 (SI contribution statement for mandatory contributions)
  • RPCSVKD0 (SI contribution statement for MMEI mandatory contributions)
  • RPCSVCD0 (Suplementary insurance list)
  • RPCBVBD0 (Payment of contributions to the professionals# pension organization)

a complete data set was created for each payroll area and payroll period respectively.

Example:

Start one of the reports mentioned in period 1 for payroll area 2 and limit the selection of personnel numbers from 1000 to 1500. Contributions of 3.000DM that are to be paid are determined.
Then start report RPCDTSD0 (preliminary program for data medium exchange).

Later, you start the same report again, likewise for period 1 and payroll area 2. This time, select the remaining personnel numbers 1501 to 2000. The contributions of 4.000 DM to be paid are determined.
Then start the report RPCDTSD0 again (preliminary program for data medium exchange).

If the Flag transfers indictor is set, report RPCDTSD0 (preliminary program for data medium exchange) determines in the first run a contribution of 3.000 DM that is to be transferred.
In the second run, the report determines a contribution of 4.000 DM to be tranferred. Since the select transfers indicator was set for the previous run, the report recognises that 3.000 DM has already been transferred for the payroll area and period. A formation of differences is triggered; the transfer in the second run is only 1.000 DM.
In order to avoid this, the Flag transfer indicator must not be set in such a case.
