Wage Type-Dependent Constant Valuation Bases 

Definition

Values for bonuses dependent on the bonus wage type.

Use

The valuation of a time wage type with wage type-dependent constants is often dependent on certain conditions being met. You can define different, wage type dependent constants that depend on a modifier. Different conditions are represented with different modifiers. The value of these modifiers is queried with the function RAB (Read Absences) or the operation VALBS (Valuation bases).

Further conditions can be defined within the personnel calculation rule to determine whether a time wage type is valuated using a wage type-dependent constant valuation basis. In the standard system, the modifier MODIF 2 is used. You set the modifiers in personnel calculation rule XMOD (Modifiers for Payroll).

Prerequisites

In Customizing for Payroll under Time Wage Type Valuation®Valuation Bases ®Assign Valuation Bases you have determined which wage type should be calculated with a wage type dependent constant.

In Customizing for Payroll under Time Wage Type Valuation®Valuation Bases ®Constant Valuation Bases ®Define Wage Type-Dependent Constants you define the amount with which a wage type should be valuated depending on the wage type constant. The wage type-dependent constants are defined as dependent on a payroll modifier.

The modifier value is set as MODIF 2 within personnel calculation rule XMOD (employee grouping for payroll). In the personnel calculation rule XMOD, you can define customer-specific conditions depending on this modifier.

Please take particular care with the Employee Remuneration Information infotype (2010). This infotype allows you to enter manually calculated wage types, for example, bonuses for hazardous or unpleasant work, and premiums. This is also the case for time wage types, for example, for overtime.

If you enter the Bonus for overtime wage type with an Amount in the Employee Remuneration Information infotype (2010), the wage type is included in the payroll run with its amount. In this case, the valuation basis is not used to valuate the wage type. By entering a wage type using the EE Remuneration Information infotype (2010), you can override time wage type valuation using a valuation basis.

The Customizing system enables you to specify the wage types that can be entered in the Employee Remuneration Information infotype (2010). For more information, see the IMG for Personnel Management under Personnel Administration ® Payroll Data ® Employee Remuneration Information.
