The online evaluation is a tool that is available in various programs (PF-infotypes, user interface). It provides you with an overview of the current PF data for an insured employee. This data can be determined and calculated through the processing control.

Listing an irregular contribution directly in a benefit plan fund (for example, as in Individual Values PF infotype (0279)) is not advisable. Using the Recurring Payments/Deductions infotype (0014), you can define an unlimited number of irregular contributions at a specific time. This is also possible for overlapping validity time periods, the total of which is the amount due for a certain month.

The online evaluation is mainly controlled through the choice of a calculation and a reference date. The chosen calculation is actually carried out in calling up the PC-interpreter with the appropriate PC-action. To do this, the system reads all infotype records (from 01/01/1800 to 12/31/9999) that exist for the employee.

The online evaluation calculates with two reference dates. The results are displayed in two columns. You can also print the results.

The PC-interpreter is given a reference date, a start date, and an end date. These dates have no effect on most of the results. Reading/displaying the total of certain postings (for example, deposits) serves as an example of an exception.

If a value could not be determined, for example, because an employee was not insured at a certain time, the evaluation displays "???" instead of a value. If there are messages, a button with the lightening symbol appears (as in the table output of the universal evaluations). You use this button to call up a list of messages.
