Calculation of Seniority in the Payroll
In the SAP R/3 System, you carry out the seniority calculation within the payroll process frame for a specified payroll period.
Seniority is calculated through payment methods, valuation methods and a calculation procedure that unites both methods in the
Seniority infotype (0092).The payment method is the method with which the seniority periods to be taken into account in the calculation are established, for example two year periods, three year periods, etc, as well as the way in which they are used in the seniority calculation. The valuation method is the method that assigns a value or amount to the established sections.
The correct seniority processing in the payroll process is linked to the system check of data entered in the infotype Seniority (0092).
When processing data for the seniority calculation in the payroll, you differentiate between two procedures depending on whether or not your company requires the breakdown of those partial items that form the total seniority amount that will flow into the payroll:
