Use

The Maternity Protection infotype (0080) enables you to record all absences related to maternity protection and parental leave. If you create a record in this infotype, the system generates a corresponding absence record in the Absences infotype (2001).

If you lock a record in this infotype, however, the corresponding absence record in the Absences infotype is NOT locked automatically. You must indicate that you want the record locked in the Absences infotype as well.

Note

You can only use this infotype for female employees. If you want to record parental leave for a male employee, use the Absences infotype (2001).

Maternity protection and parental leave both involve regulations and provisions specific to a particular company, collective agreement or country. As a result, you can make individualized settings in this infotype in Customizing. The length of time permitted for maternity protection and parental leave, as well as the application deadlines for parental leave, vary extensively.

Note: You should maintain all data that is connected to one birth in the same infotype record. To create a data record, complete the following three steps:

  1. Notification of pregnancy to employer
  2. Enter actual delivery date and recalculation periods
  3. Enter parental leave

Procedure

  1. Choose the Maternity Protection infotype (0080).
  2. Select a processing mode.
  3. The Maternity Protection screen appears.

  4. Enter the expected delivery date. Choose Enter.
  5. The system calculates the periods automatically. However, you can overwrite the default values.

  6. If the system does not propose default values, enter the appropriate absence types manually.
  7. The validity period of the record is adjusted according to the periods calculated.
  8. Save your entries.

This function is also used to recalculate the absence records in the Absences infotype (2001). You must carry out this function in order to prevent data inconsistency.
