Definition

The processing type is assigned during time evaluation and time data processing in payroll. You use it to classify times so that they are handled differently in time wage type selection.

The processing type is also important for the determination of planned pairs. Time data processing refers to attendance and absence pairs when calculating the planned working time. Planned working time pairs (processing type "S") and overtime pairs ("M") are formed in a subsequent processing step.

In addition to the processing types in the standard system, you can also define your own processing types to represent special regulations for time wage type selection.
