Additional Payments (Infotype 0015) 

By specifying a wage type in the Additional Payments (0015) infotype, you can store an amount and/or a value and a unit of measurement that should be paid or deducted in a certain period by Payroll. Additional payments are wage elements which are not paid or deducted in every payroll period in contrast to recurring payments and deductions which are paid or deducted within a defined periodicity.

In addition, you have the possibility to enter default cost assignment settings for additional payments for the application component Controlling (CO). This enables you, for example, to store a different cost center and company code combination than the one in the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001); the additional payments will then be charged to this cost center. Select Edit ® Maintain cost assignment. The Default Cost Assignment Settings dialog box appears. Enter the relevant data. If any data has already been entered for the cost assignment it will be displayed on the infotype single screen. You can set up further controlling objects in the Customizing for Personnel Administration under Recording Cost Assignment Specifications.

The standard system contains, amongst others, the following wage types:

·        Subtype M110: Vacation bonus

·        Subtype M120: Christmas bonus

·        Subtype M30: Special payment

·        …

Additional Payments

Enter the wage type that is to be paid or deducted in the Wage Type field. In conjunction with the Wage type you must process either the Amount field or the Number and Unit fields. The system checks the combination entered. The currency is defaulted according to the company code. This can be overwritten.

The system uses the last day of the current payroll period as the date of origin of the additional payment. You can overwrite this default value by

·        Entering another date in the field Date of origin

·        Entering the required payroll period and payroll year in the fields Default date

If you enter a different payroll period in the fields Default date the system defaults the last day of the specified payroll period as the date of origin.

If the report RPCDTBX0 (Preliminary Data Medium Exchange Program for Separate Payment Run) has created a preliminary document for a wage type transfer, the Transfer field is displayed on the infotype screen. You can not delete the wage type in this case.
