Correcting Payroll-Relevant Master and Time Data 

Prerequisites

You have run payroll, resulting in errors.

Procedure

  1. From the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Payroll ® Payroll <Country> ® Payroll ® Corrections in the SAP menu.

The system sets the payroll status for the payroll area to Released for correction. Master and time data processing for the personnel numbers in the payroll area has been released again.

If you want to set the payroll run for several payroll areas to Released for correction, it is easier to use the payroll control record to do so. To do so, proceed as when releasing several payroll areas.
  1. Choose Human resources ® Personnel management ® Administration ® HR master data ® Maintain.
  2. Correct the relevant infotypes.

Result

The system has saved all employees for which you have changed payroll-relevant master or time data in this correction phase of payroll in Matchcode W (Payroll correction run).

After you have completed the corrections, release payroll a second time. The personnel numbers in the payroll area are again locked for past and future changes to the master and time data.

Finally, you perform a payroll correction run. If errors occur a second time, repeat these steps until payroll has been performed for all personnel numbers and Matchcode W is empty.

You can only end the payroll run when Matchcode W no longer contains any personnel numbers.
