Definition

The special class identifies special country-specific or statutory requirements for the evaluation of a selection class.

Use

For each selection class that covers special requirements, you define a special class. The special class is taken into account when the respective selection class is evaluated in the valuation model.

You assign a special class to a selection class in Customizing for Personnel Administration under Evaluation Bases ® Calculation of Employment Period ® Valuation Model ® Define Selection Class.

The standard system contains two specifications for special classes:

Remaining periods are gaps in the employment period that exist after the periods have been evaluated in the valuation model. When these gaps are grouped together in a selection class, you can assign the special class Remaining Periods to this selection class.

Note

This selection class must not contain any selection rules.

In addition, a valuation model can contain only one selection class with the Remaining Periods special class since it can only be called once when the valuation model is evaluated.

The weighting and threshold value and maximum value functions are used for each selection class in the evaluation in the valuation model. In a selection class with this special class, the functions are only used for periods and not for date-based durations.
