Reply from Flavio Le Roy on Dec 23 at 12:10 PM Look at this, and tell me what do you think about. You can perform the Payroll separately for different employee groups, using different payroll areas. Which payroll area the employee belongs to depends on his or her organizational assignment. Employees who belong to different company codes can, for example, be grouped in the same payroll area. We recommend that you use as few payroll areas as possible. You require different payroll areas for different employee groups in the following cases: The payroll periodicity is different. For example, payroll is run weekly for hourly-paid employees, and monthly for salaried employees. The payroll period is different. Payroll could be run, for example, on the 25th of the month for salaried employees, and on the 20th of the previous month for company pensioners. The payment date is different. For weekly-paid employees the payment date could be, for example, the fourth day of the following week, for salaried employees it could be the first day of the following month. The retroactive accounting limit is different. It should be possible to run retroactive accounting back to an earlier date for one group of employees than for another. Payroll should not be run for certain employees. This is SAP recommendation, and in my opinion you should follow this criteria. See attach link for Payroll Area Definition. http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/en/44/ f0c53405e41229e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm Kind Regards, Flavio

If you are having different payroll administrator for each employee group, then it's worth considering having payroll area by employee group. This will allow each payroll administrator to decide when to release and exit payroll, since releasing payroll will lock employees master data. On the other hand, this will become very restrictive when it comes to anything relating to Org Assignment (e.g. promotion). Assuming you are having different payroll area for Executive and Manager group. Since payroll area can only be changed at the start of the payroll period, you are effectively restricting the promotion can only be effective on the same date. You will have to analyze the pros and cons relating to your client's business needs. Hope this helps. Regards, CL | | Reply to this email to post your response. __.____._ | _.____.__ |
