In this section of the Implementation Guide (IMG), you set up the system to process 13th month payments. The settings you make can also be used to process 14th, 16th or any nth month bonus payments.
After you have configured the system according to your company's requirements, you can calculate the amount to be paid by running the 13th Month Pay program (HPHCAWS0). The program generates a batch input queue that updates either the Additional Payments (0015) or the One-Time Pay Off-Cycle (0267) infotype with the 13th or nth month bonus amount.
The 13th or nth month payment is subsequently included in either a regular payroll run or in an off-cycle bonus run.
To include the payment in an off-cycle bonus run, you must configure the Off-Cycle Activities section of the IMG for Payroll Philippines first.
To execute the 13th Month Pay program, go to the SAP initial screen, and navigate to Human Resources -> Payroll -> Asia/Pacific -> Philippines -> Off-cycle -> 13th Month Pay.
