 Create Compensation Program Records (RHECM_CREATE_0758)

Use

Execute this program to create records on infotype Compensation Program (0758) for a group of employees and make them macro eligible for a compensation plan by assigning them to a compensation program containing this plan. This infotype must be maintained for further compensation processing in Manager Self-Service .

You can run this program when you first use Enterprise Compensation Management to maintain infotype 0758 for a large number of employees or on a regular basis for new employees. Personnel actions instead are recommended for handling individual cases.

Prerequisites

Depending on the context, you must have been through the following activities in the Implementation Guide for Enterprise Compensation Management :

  • Define Compensation areas

  • Define Compensation Area Feature

  • Define First Compensation Program Groupings

  • Define First Compensation Program Grouping Feature

  • Business Add-In: Determine First Compensation Program Grouping

  • Define Second Compensation Program Groupings

  • Define Second Compensation Program Grouping Feature

  • Business Add-In: Determine Second Compensation Program Grouping

Selection

In addition to the standard time-dependent and organizational criteria, you can specify a range of compensation-relevant criteria to be processed, as further described.

Field Values for Infotype 0758 Records

The compensation area and first/second compensation program groupings you enter here are written to infotype 0758 when you execute this program. If not filled, the corresponding features and/or Business Add-In will provide default values.

Earliest Begin Date / Latest End Date

You can restrict the validity of the records by choosing a combination of either hire and leaving dates, date types or fixed dates. You can specify that:

  • The begin date cannot be earlier than the hire date (default), the date assigned to the date type or the fixed date you have specified. The hire date and the date type are read from the infotypes Actions ( 0000 ) and Date Specifications ( 0041 ), respectively. If more than one indicator is set, the system reads the most recent begin date.

  • The end date cannot be later than the leaving date (default), the date assigned to the date type or the fixed date you have specified. If more than one indicator is set, the system reads the earliest end date.

Note

If no date is selected, the high date or low date is retrieved.

Processing Options

  • Split at Master Data Changes

    The newly created records on infotype 0758 are split to reflect changes on the infotypes Organizational Assignment ( 0001 ) and Basic Pay ( 0008 ). If you want to consider splits on other infotypes, copy this program and use it as a template to create your own enhanced version. Per default, this indicator is set.

  • Test Run (No Update)

    It is strongly recommended that you perform a test run to detect and correct possible errors before updating the database. Per default, this indicator is set.

Output

A list of messages is displayed, sorted by employee. The following message types can be generated:

  • Success message

    For each record that has been successfully generated, a success message is displayed.

  • Warning message

    For each record that existed before running the program and that has been deleted or delimited, a warning message is displayed.

  • Error message

    Error messages are generated for errors that have occurred during processing and that prevented the records from being created.
