PY-TW Employee Tax Information

Definition

Employee tax information is used by the payroll driver to calculate the tax an employee is liable to pay and the amount the employer must contribute to the tax bureau for each payroll period.

Structure

Employee tax information consists of many items of information. To ensure that an employee's deductions are processed successfully, records in the following master data infotypes must be updated:

Personal ID (from Personal IDs infotype (0185))

Each employee is assigned a unique personal ID, that is used for tax report purposes.

Name and Gender (from Personal Data infotype (0002))

The name and gender of an employee are required during tax calculation. The gender is used during calculation of overtime for male or female employees.

Address (from Addresses infotype (0006))

An employee’s address is required during report generation.

Tax information (from Income Tax infotype (0353))

The tax ID status and tax category status sections determine the taxing method and special rules applied for the employee. This information is required to calculate the tax of an employee.
