Defining Eligibility for Advance Payments 

Use

Instead of entering the eligibility criteria manually everytime you create an advance payment, you can control these by means of feature LFSTV. You can set up a decision tree that automatically determines whether an employee may receive a certain advance payment. If so, the LFSTV feature returns the applicable amount or percentage of the employee's basic pay to be used for the advance.

You can make the necessary setting in the Implementation Guide of the Payroll Malaysia component. Choose Advance Payments ® Define entitlement conditions.

Prerequisites

Whether an employee may receive an advance payment is controlled through Infotype General Eligibility (0374). In this infotype, advance payments are grouped into categories that share common features (for example, festival advances).

You can specify an employee's eligibility for each entry pertaining to a given category (for example, festival advance, New Year's Eve, Christmas Day and Labour Day).

Procedure

  1. Choose Human resources ® Personnel management ® Administration ® Maintain master data.

    2. The Maintain HR Master Data screen appears.

  2. Create a new record for Infotype 0374 using a subtype that reflects the advance payment category for which you want the employee to be eligible for.
  3. Select all those advance payment types that the employee may receive.
  4. Save your entries.
