The first step in processing the payroll schema is initialization. To do this, use the subschema EIN0.

This subschema specifies important information or performs actions relevant to the posterior payroll processing.

Make the appropriate settings in the system Implementation Guide and maintain all the infotypes and necessary data.

The schema EIN0 (Payroll initialization) performs the following activities:

• Specifying the program type (posting or evaluation) to be processed
• Setting the control for database maintenance
• Setting the control for reading infotypes
• Importing time management infotypes
• Specifying the check with the personnel control record, checking whether the payroll area for payroll execution has been Released. Otherwise, the employees of that specific payroll area are excluded from the process

The payroll process is initialized with the corresponding control data.
