Integration with Payroll (SAP Library - Personnel Time Management (PT))

Integration with Payroll

Purpose

You can use this component to provide the R/3 Payroll component or a third-party payroll system with information on bonuses and the valuation of hourly and overtime wages. This information is required for the calculation of the gross wage. If time data has been supplied with cost accounting information, Payroll can calculate the resultant personnel costs and transfer them to Cost Accounting.

Implementation Considerations

This component acts as an interface between Payroll and Time Management. It is supplied with data from Time Evaluation. It is a required component if you use the R/3 Time Management component in combination with a third-party payroll system.

R/3 Payroll is also able to determine wage types for the calculation of the gross wage. To do this, it uses the time data entered online and the specifications on the planned working times. For more information, see Integration with Time Management.

Features

Supplying R/3 Payroll and a Third-Party Payroll System

Time evaluation determines wage types. To do this, it compares the recorded time data with the planned hours or the start and end times for the work and calculates break times, times eligible for bonuses, and so on.

When time evaluation determines overtime and bonus wage types, it automatically takes account of public holidays, weekdays, or conditions on the duration or time of work performed.

Employee-related information on work performed that needs to be valuated using a different pay scale or bonuses is transferred to payroll. Information on work for a different position can automatically trigger a different payment in payroll.

Time Evaluation "informs" payroll if subsequent changes are made to wage types for periods that have already been processed. Payroll can then correct the payroll results on the basis of this information.

Integration with R/3 Payroll

If the payroll is run before the end of the current payroll period, time evaluation cannot supply wage types for the remainder of the period. In this case, Payroll can perform a preliminary projection on the basis of the employees’ planned working times.
