Displaying the Payroll LogThe payroll log gives you clear detailed information on the payroll run and its results. It is divided into different levels that you can display depending on the amount of detail required.
The
General data
level gives information on the processed data and shows the payroll schema used by the system. The
Successful personnel numbers
and
Rejected personnel numbers
include processing of the schema for each personnel number. The
Rejected personnel numbers
level is always expanded. However, you can also create and save your own view variants. You can find more information under
creating and processing display variants for the payroll log
.
Note
If you run payroll in a background operation , you should not switch on the log display as the spool might "overflow". The system still prints data on the schema used, the personnel numbers rejected, and the statistics that appear as the last main level in the log.
In the display we differentiate between the log tree and the actual log that you find under .
The
color legend
under
Utilities
gives information on the levels that the log tree displays and the log is divided into.
