The Hospitals Accounting Regulation (KHBV) and Nursing Homes Accounting Regulation (PBV) specify for which service types (employee groups) expense accounts must be within Financial Accounting, in the case of public-sector hospitals and nursing homes. These regulations also specify to which service type the employees should be assigned.

You can post the personnel expenses to these expense accounts for a specific service type by making the relevant settings in the system, so that the symbolic account, the employee grouping for account determination, and the service type are all taken into consideration during account determination.

You have made the relevant settings in Payroll Customizing under Payroll Germany ® Industries ® Public Sector ® Hospitals and Homes ® Service Type.

You have made the relevant settings in Payroll Customizing, under Payroll: Germany ® Posting to Accounting ® Activities in AC System ® Assigning Accounts ® Assign Expense Accounts.

Payroll reads the information on the service type/category from the master and time data, and from Organizational Management, and saves it in the payroll result.

When posting to Accounting, the system reads this information from the payroll results and includes it in account determination.
