Create wage type catalog (SAP Library

Create wage type catalog

In this step you create your own wage types for the wage type group Trip costs (00TR) by copying SAP model wage types.

These copies are the wage types that you can use further on and adapt to your specific requirements.

All model wage types begin with a letter. Your own wage types, the copies, must begin with a number. You will only be offered wage types to copy in this step that are included in the wage type group Trip costs.

Note

Information on creating customer-specific wage types via prototypes or by copying from the SAP wage type catalog can be found in the implementation guide for the component Personnel administration in chapters:

Create wage types using prototypes

Create wage types using the wage type catalog

Please note that the copies of model wage types, your wage types, take on the attributes of the SAP model wage types in regard to behavior in dialog as well as in accounting. In the subsequent steps you can check and, if necessary, adapt the attributes of your wage types.

Caution

For your own, copied wage types, use only the prescribed section (all wage types which begin with a number). Never copy wage types to the SAP wage type section (all wage types which begin with a letter or a special character).
