Definition
'Wage type' is the most important control concept in payroll accounting. It embodies a large number of specific characteristics related to legal matters and technical procedures.

/001 Hourly wage -> Base pay you enter once via
the infotype 0008 'Basic pay'
/101 Cumulated gross pay -> Not entered, but calculated
by system
/3xx ER share of SS -> Calculated by system, stored
contributions in payroll results cluster
M006 Overtime on holidays-> Can be automatically added
or only allowed after approval
M211 Company pension -> Like regular pay, one entry
