Payroll New Zealand (PY-NZ) 

Purpose

This component enables you to run payroll for all employees in accordance with legal and business requirements.

Implementation Considerations

The Payroll New Zealand component should be implemented in cooperation with the project team implementing other areas of SAP Human Resources (HR), in particular Personnel Administration.

Integration

The Payroll component for New Zealand forms an integral part of the Human Resources component and is therefore closely linked with Time Management. It is also fully integrated with other SAP modules, such as Financial Accounting and Controlling. You can run payroll using a combination of SAP and third-party products.
