Definition

The date up to which retroactive accounting can be performed for the personnel numbers of a component that are assigned to the current archiving group.

Use

You determine the retroactive accounting limit for each archiving object of an archiving group. You must take a country's statutory regulations into account.

When archiving is prepared, the system checks the earliest personal retroactive accounting date of the Payroll and Time Management components in infotype 0003 Payroll Status for each personnel number of an archiving group. The system only checks the earliest personal retroactive accounting date set for Travel Management in Payroll if Travel Management is actually integrated with Payroll .

If the earliest personal retroactive accounting date in infotype 0003 Payroll Status for Payroll and/or Time Management occurs before the retroactive accounting limit of the archiving group, the system overwrites the earliest personal retroactive accounting date with the corresponding retroactive accounting limit of the archiving group.

Integration

If the Payroll, Time Management, and Travel Management components are integrated, you must note the following when determining the archiving date and retroactive accounting limit:

The interval between the retroactive accounting limit and the archiving date is also affected by country-specific regulations and the period used to calculate averages. If you require further information, see Archiving Payroll Results (PY) .

The archiving date for Time Management must be at least one period before the retroactive accounting limit for Time Management because work schedules for more than one period must be taken into account. If you require further information, see Archiving Time Evaluation Results (PT) .

The archiving date for Travel Management is at least one day earlier than the retroactive accounting limit for Payroll .
