Valuate Absences by Constants/Averages (SAP Library

Valuate Absences by Constants/Averages

In this IMG activity, you specify regulations for absences that are valuated using an average or constant.

Example

1. Your employees are to receive a fixed vacation allowance for each payroll day on which they are on leave.
In this case, you use a wage type that is valuated using a constant amount, and determine the absence times using the time unit payroll days.

2. For each absence day on which they are on leave, your employees are to receive a vacation allowance based on the average amount of overtime they have worked over the last three months.
In this case, you use a wage type that is valuated using average bases.
