Specify Reimbursement of Entitlements

In this IMG step, you specify how claims and entitlements are to be paid.

Due to locks or waiting periods, new hires might have unpaid entitlements to special payments at the end of the year. In this step, you determine whether or not payment of this entitlement is to be forced at the end of the year.

You also determine whether you want to compensate an entitlement to special payment with or without an amount-based adjustment.

If you do not apply an amount-based adjustment, the special payment is derived from the difference between the days to be paid and those already paid,

If you apply an amount-based adjustment, the special payment is derived from the difference between the amounts paid and those to be paid,

For new hire, you can specify an amount-based adjustment independently of the entries made for general payments.

Example

1. An employee joins the company on October 1st. You have specified a waiting period of 6 months for Christmas bonuses, and you want to pay Christmas bonuses at the end of the year at the latest. Enter the value 0 , so that the vacation allowance is paid in December despite the waiting period.

2. At the time of payment, the entire entitlement to special payment is already compensated since the number of paid days is the same as the number of days with entitlement. However, there may be a remaining entitlement due to an increase in basic pay. This entitlement can be calculated and paid by applying an amount-based adjustment.

Requirements

You should already have specified the special payment variant for all special payment wage types.

Activities

1. Determine whether unpaid entitlements of new hires are to be delimited at the end of the year.

2. Determine whether you want to compensate remaining entitlements with or without amount-based adjustments.

Further Notes

1. You do not need to make any settings for event-triggered special payments in this step.

2. Annual delimitation only applies to new hires and rehires.
You must specify the payment time yourself for employees not paid their entitlement for other reasons, such as for example maternity protection.
To do this, you must specify the appropriate special payment wage type in infotype 0015, Additional Payment , for the payroll period in which you want payment to be effected. You should not enter an amount but enter 100 % in the Number/Unit field.
