Transferring Negative Wage Components 
Transferring Negative Wage Components
Use
If negative wage components are transferred, for example, for a reversal, the system does not check whether the negative amount would cause a negative total gross amount in the payroll result. The Payroll system cannot generate a negative gross amount. If this were the case, the payroll run would terminate. Therefore, you must avoid negative total gross amounts.
Total gross amount for an employee in the Sales department:
|
January |
February | |
|
1000 € salary + 5000 € commission
6000 € total gross amount |
1000 € salary - 5000 € reclamation + 500 € refund of undue tax from January - 3500 € total gross amount |
Scope of Function
You can avoid the negative gross amount by using one of the following methods:
Form Accruals (Third-Party Application)
The third-party application forms accruals for the high commission amount and deducts these accruals in several payroll runs. This means that the total reclamation is forwarded to HR in several amounts and avoids the formation of a negative gross amount.
Pay Advance (HR)
The negative gross amount can be settled in HR by paying an advance to the employee (cf.
Deduction Payments). This advance can then be reclaimed from the employee over several payroll periods.
Repay Commission (HR)
The employee repays part of the commission. This repayment can be entered as a net payment in the Additional Payments infotype (0015).
