When posting personnel expenses to Funds Management, the system distinguishes between the following scenarios:

For every company code, you can specify if scenario 2 should be used and a date specified on which the integration of Funds Management should be activated. You make the necessary settings in Customizing for Financial Accounting (under Funds Management ® Actual and Commitment Update/Integration ® Integration ® Integration with HR (Human Resources) ® Define Begin of HR Integration.

At FM level, you can specify if scenario 3 should be used. However, it is possible to activate this scenario for certain employee groups only, which you create based on certain employee characteristics. You can activate the scenario at a different time for every employee grouping. You make the necessary settings in Customizing for Personnel Management (under, Position Management ® Integration ® Integration With Funds Management).

In the following cases, scenario 3 does not apply for an employee:

• Scenario 3 is not activated for the employee’s FM area.
• Scenario 3 is only activated for certain employee groupings from the employee’s FM area. The employee does not belong to any of these employee groupings.

In both cases, scenario 2 applies for the employee if it is activated for the employee’s company code. If scenario 2 was not activated for the employee’s company code, scenario 1 applies for the employee in both cases.
