Displaying Revision Information

An important part of posting to Accounting is the ability to retrace individual line items. This is particularly important if a revision is required. In this case the following occurs:

Postings are carried out in a summarized form, meaning that the Accounting components are only provided with the information that they require.
This prevents unauthorized persons from accessing personal data.
You can still retrace postings at any time, as the system creates an index of the processed payroll results when summarizing the posting data within posting to Accounting. Special authorization allows you to retrace the document line items back to the payroll results for the employee.
