PY-TW Processing Bonus Payment

Creating a bonus payment

To calculate bonus payment for an employee, run a program that performs necessary calculations and creates the bonus payments as special wage types. These must then be stored in the Additional Payments infotype (0015) and Additional Payments Off-Cycle infotype (0267), depending on whether payment is to be effected in a regular or an off-cycle payroll run.

To import the bonus wage types to the infotypes mentioned above, a batch input folder is created during bonus calculation.

Payroll processing for bonus payments

After the bonus amount has been calculated, payment is effected depending on which infotype the results are stored in.

Bonus wage types stored in Additional Payments infotype (0015) are included and paid in the regular payroll run.
Bonus wage types stored in Additional Payments Off-Cycle infotype (0267) are included and paid in an off-cycle payroll run.

You can split an employee’s bonus into several payments that are made in different periods. This allows for a distribution of bonus among multiple regular payroll runs as well as for a separation into multiple off-cycle and regular payroll runs.

Example

The bonus amount that an employee is to receive is NT$1000. Bonus is calculated on December 10th, the next regular payroll run is performed on December 28th. NT$400 is to be paid immediately, NT$600 in the regular payroll run. This means that NT$400 is entered in the Additional Payments Off-Cycle infotype (0267), and NT$600 is entered in the Additional Payments infotype (0015).

When off-cycle payroll accounting is performed on December 10th, only the amount stored in Additional Payments Off-Cycle infotype (0267) is processed, and the appropriate payment is made. When the regular payroll run is executed on December 28th, the NT$600 stored in Additional Payments infotype (0015) is processed and paid with the employee’s regular salary.
