Posting-Relevant Information from Master Data, Time Data and Organizational Management

Certain information from master and time data and from Organizational Management appears in the payroll result. When evaluating the payroll results for posting to Accounting , the system filters out the posting-relevant information from the payroll results.

Organizational Assignment

The Organizational Assignment infotype (0001) includes the assignment of the employee to a personnel area and a company code . This infotype also includes the assignment to a master cost center and to a business area . If you do not specify any other assignments, the system will use this assignment in posting to Accounting .

Cost Distribution from Organizational Management

In Organizational Management , you can specify a percentage cost distribution to several account assignment objects (cost centers orders or projects) for a position. It is possible to evaluate this cost distribution in Payroll , so that costs for the employee that would otherwise be posted to the master cost center are distributed to the required account assignment objects in the next posting. A cost distribution from Organizational Management can also be a result of the percentage assignment of an employee to several positions.

Cost Distribution from HR Master Data

In the Cost Distribution Infotype (0027) , you can specify a percentage distribution of costs to several account assignment objects (cost centers, orders or projects) for the employee. If you specify the cost distribution for an employee for a partial period of a payroll period in the Cost Distribution infotype (0027), the account assignments from the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001) (master cost center) and Organizational Management are not taken into consideration for this part of the costs.

Employee Remuneration

Information relevant to posting, in a broader sense, is contained in all infotypes that the system directly or indirectly uses to calculate an employee's remuneration in Payroll . The most important infotypes are:

With the exception of the Basic Pay infotype ( 0008), you can specify a cost assignment in all the infotypes listed. If you enter the relevant data for cost assignment in one of these infotypes, this cost assignment and not the cost assignment from the infotypes Organizational Assignment (0001) and Cost Distribution (0027) or from Organizational Management is taken into consideration when posting to Accounting . However, this only applies when wage types are posted that were entered in these infotypes or created using them.
