Secondary Wage Type 

Definition

A technical wage type generated by the system.

Use

You do not enter secondary wage types on-line. The system generates secondary wage types during the payroll run or derives them from particular factors.

Secondary wage types are also wage type that cumulate several wage types or temporarily store interim results.

Structure

The technical name of a secondary wage type always starts with the character (/), for example, /001.

Example

The standard system includes the secondary wage type /101 (Total Gross Amount). This wage type is created during the payroll run and is used to cumulate all of the wage types that pertain to an employee’s total gross amount.
