Posting with Position Management
Posting with Position Management
Purpose
If integration of Position Management (PA-PM) to Funds Management (FI-FM) is activated, the following process takes place in posting to Accounting.
Prerequisites
If a wage type is posted as an expense, you must have specified which expenditure type is used for the accompanying financing in Position Management in Payroll Customizing, under Reporting for Posting Payroll Results to Accounting ® Special Scenarios ® Integration of HR Funds and Position Management ® Assign Expenditure Types to Wage Types.
Process Flow
When evaluating the payroll results for posting to Accounting, the system uses Customizing to determine the expenditure type assigned to every wage type that is to be posted as an expense. It uses this expenditure type and the
WPBP split of the wage type to determine which financing should be used from the Financing (FUND) table in the payroll results.The relevant posting items contain the information obtained. The subsequent posting then uses up the funds commitment specified in the Financing (FUND) table in Funds Management and creates an actual posting to the Funds Management account assignment stored in the Financing (FUND) table.
If the expenditure type is financed proportionally from several Fund Management account assignments, the wage type amount is distributed to these account assignments based on the portions. Any rounding off differences are added to the greatest share.
If a different Funds Management account assignment was specified in one of the infotypes in which a cost assignment can be specified, this Funds Management account assignment is copied from the table Cost Distribution from Various Infotypes (C1) when posting the relevant expense. The Funds Management account assignment from the Financing (FUND) table is not taken into consideration for this posting. Moreover, the funds commitments are not used up in this expense posting.
For a list of the most important infotypes in which you can specify a cost assignment, see
If a cost distribution to several CO account assignments was specified in the Cost Distribution infotype (0027), all the CO account assignments are multiplied with the calculated percentages of the financing from Position Management.
Cost center/funds center distribution
Financing of 1,000 takes place using the following account assignment objects from Funds Management.
Account assignment 1: Funds center S1, commitment item Salaries, fund F1. (Amount: 500)
Account assignment 2: Funds center S2, commitment item Salaries, fund F2. (Amount: 500)
The Financing table (FUND) thus shows 50% for account assignment 1 and 50% for account assignment 2.
However, a cost distribution of 40% is entered in the Cost Assignment infotype (0027) for the cost center HR-01. The other 60% are posted to the employee’s master cost center (HR-ALL) from the Organizational Assignment (0001) infotype.
A wage type with the amount of 1,000 was posted accordingly in the following way:
Cost center |
FM account assignment |
Multiplication |
Amount |
HR-ALL |
1 |
1,000 x 60 % x 50 % |
300 |
HR-ALL |
2 |
1,000 x 60 % x 50 % |
300 |
HR-01 |
1 |
1,000 x 40 % x 50 % |
200 |
HR-01 |
2 |
1,000 x 40 % x 50 % |
200 |
The documents in Controlling and in Funds Management contain summarized information:
In the Controlling document in the example, only the allocation to both the cost centers HR-ALL (amount: 600) and HR-01 (amount: 400) would appear. A prerequisite for this is that you have made the relevant settings for the reference procedure HRPAY in Customizing for Controllings under General Controlling ®
Only the allocation to both the account assignments 1 and 2 (an amount of 500 respectively) would appear in the Funds Management document.
