Changing an Employee’s Basic Pay Using the Copy Function: Example
Prerequisites
An employee in your enterprise receives an increase in basic pay. You record the increase in Basic Pay (infotype 0008) Most of the data in the current record is still valid. To save time and to avoid errors, you record the pay increase by copying the existing record and changing the copy.
Procedure
The current Basic Pay record is displayed in copy mode.
You must enter a start date for the increase in payments. Otherwise, the copied infotype record is overwritten by the new data during saving.
Result
The employee’s pay increase is recorded in a new Basic Pay infotype (0008).
