Changing Payroll Areas

Hello guys: I have 8 different payroll areas with the same periodicity and same payment date.
If I change all EEs IT 0001 and use only one payroll area (the same for everybody); are there going to be any problems with the cluster?
I am planing on using as the date of change (begin date) the first day of a payroll period.  I will also run this master data update after all the payrolls have been posted to FI.
Or what kind of problems could i encounter?
Thanks
Harlen

This should be ok, just make sure that you take care of payment/deduction that has payment model assigned, and just double check your schema there might be some rules written which might be payroll area specific.

  • Promotion action - payroll run - not allowing to change payroll area in IT1

    Hi,
    As you said that you have already configured ABKRS feature for defaulting payroll area based on your employee group.
    So when you run the promotion action it should actually pick up the default payroll area according to new employee group.
    Are you able to do that? or did you manually change it on IT 0001 screen.
    If you want it to be automatically defaulted then check your feature DFINF it should have value X if you want it from customising or leave it blank if it should be copied form the previous record

  • Change payroll area in middle of the month

    Currently I had face a problem where this staff whose is reentering the company in the middle of the month. Before this he use payroll area XX, after he reenter the company in the middle of the month, the payroll area need to be change to AA. But the system did not allow this with this error: "Payroll area change possible only at the end of the payroll period". So i was force to change the payroll area only when the date was at the end of the payroll period.
    Is there any way to rectify this issue? I also being informed that there was a standard report to do this, but i could not find it,weather is it exist or not.

    Is there any way to do by force, as i had been told that it could be done by using a standard program, but he could not remember it.
    Is it payroll could not be running if half month payroll are is XX and other half is AA if possible to change the payroll area? Why?

  • Issue on payroll area which is changing from biweekly to monthly in Mid of

    Dear Experts,
    I have an issue on payroll area which is changing from biweekly to monthly in Mid of the Month.
    One employee was retired on 29th of March, so his payroll area was changed from biweekly to monthly on 29th. For retire we are running the payroll on 8th of every month. When we are running payroll for April he has received only 29th and 30th retire salary, by the time he is not yet retired also.
    In this case the main problem is monthly payroll time is early then biweekly. so the employee is getting retire salary then his regular pay.
    Can you guide me where we can control that monthly payroll area should not be triggered at this movement.
    Thanks
    Chandra

    You can do that but it is not that easy as it sounds if you have to do that over a period of say 10-20 years...lot of operational work!!
    Also say if you load the retiree action one month ahead say on 03/01/2011. And the employee is retiring on  03/29.
    Retire payroll is on 04/08
    Biweekly is on 04/15
    Now you decide to lock the employees after the 1st biweekly check of March...say which was process 14 days before 04/15 would be 04/01. The employee number is locked between 04/01 to 04/15. For 14 days you have locked these employees!!
    What happens if there is adjustment pay...you have to manually go and unlock the employee and lock him after the adjustment check.
    I will let you decide based on the comfort, SAP effort, Operational effort and system maintenance.

    Hi Dilek,
    If splits will be there definitely there will be two wagetypes but the amounts they'll have will be based on the rates of those periods.
    Suppose an employee got payscale increase on 11th of  the month, then employee will be paid at the rate of first payscale for first ten days then @ of second payscale on second 20 days.
    So there won't be any inconsistency.

  • Mid month payroll area change

    Hi,
    i am at the client site and I have been asked to change the payroll area of few employees in the system but system is not allowing me to do that.
    What is the best possible solution so that i can change the payroll area so that the changes are reflected in the payroll cycle of the same month?
    Regards
    Aryan

    For this ,
    You need to log in SAP system
    Once you log in the system then give the TCODE PA30  ( Maintain HR DATA )
    Once that screen has appier then you need to give the PERNR No for whome you need to change the Payroll Area.
    Give the PERNR No.
    Give the infotype 001 ( Organizational Assignment ) and click up on the change ......
    Once you get Screen "Change Orgnazation Assigment"   you can see the field "Payr.area" give the appropriate Payr.area and save .............
    Like this you can change the Payr.area for the Personal NO

  • Payroll area change is not possible

    Hi,
    When we are doing promotion action, i.e, one paryoll area to another paryoll area, In actions whatever the date we are giving is taking, but when come to org assignment it is not allowing to save with that date  and throwing error " payroll area change is not possible at the end of payroll period"
    For example: In Actions start date is 04.01.2010, in org assign is not allowing to save the entry with that date, but if we give 01.01.2010, it is allowing to save the record. As paryroll period is starting of the month to end of the month, that is the reason it allowing the start date of the month in org assign, but user wants the record from his desired date..

  • Change in existing Payroll Area and its impact on existing PA records.

    Hello,
    Can anyone let me know please how easy / difficult it would be to change the description of the existing payroll area lets say "AB" to be the one as per requirment lets say "AC" so that it will show employees as AC rather than AB in the future? Also, if this can be done, would there be any impact on existing PA records (eg, how would they get updated to show the new code & description)?
    Many Thanks,
    Rachana.

    Could you please tell the name of that custom report?
    One more question is that do the change in payroll area could create the problem while running the retro for the previous payroll area for those employees?
    Many thanks

  • Changing business area on a cost center

    We mainly use HR, but we use some FI/CO for accounting.  (I am no expert in FI/CO whatsoever - so please excuse any incorrect terms).
    Our users have entered incorrect business area to a cost center.
    This business area is now registered on employees, and payroll/posting has been run up unitil October 2010.
    If I try to change business area from 01.11.2009 (realize it is probably not good to change earlier due to postings); I get the following error message: "Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)"
    In addition, the message says: If you still want to change the object, select a suitable change interval by choosing "Edit -> Analysis period...".  However, trying to change the analysis period I am told I have to choose year end.
    My questions are:
    1. Is there a way I can change business area from 01.11.2009 ?
    2. Is there a way to change area earlier - and if so, what are the impacts+
    I appreciate any help
    Kirsten
    Edited by: Kibo on Oct 11, 2009 2:44 PM

    Hi Kirsten,
    Normally, it's not possible to change business area during a fiscal year once there is already postings in this Fiscal Year.
    The reason is to make sure that there is no change within the fiscal year since you then would have different postings - cost center belonging to different business areas within the same fiscal year. Meaning that it is possible to change the business area for the next fiscal year like described in the long text of the error message KS134. The reason is that it is to avoid inconsistency update of the table (COSS, COEP, or COSP).
    Although, If the following requirements are met, than it is is possible to change the business area during a fiscal year with the
    help of the note 62716:
    1.  The change interval is set to period limits
    2.  There is no dependent actual transaction data in the change interval
        or afterwards.
    3.  There must already be an analysis period for the respective cost
        center which starts on the first day of the chosen period. If this
        is not the case, you can create one with 'Change cost center'
    If the requirements are met, you can run the report RKACOR06 in SE38
    safely. I recommend you to execute the report first with Test Run on
    your test system.

  • Delimiting payroll Area

    Dear Experts,
    We are having 12 payroll Areas ( All are monthly) now, due to the management decision I have to reduce the pay roll area  03. how can i  do this.
    If i delete the payroll area , i think it will effect the history of the employees,
    so how can i delimit the payroll area??? or what is the solution for this?
    Thanks in Advance.
    Manjula.A

    Hi Manjula,
    1. you can't delete the existing payroll area otherwise you can't run retro for those emp.
    2. If you will replace the existing payroll area to a new payroll are, may be system will trigger retro. Even as per my understanding you can't change the payroll area for the periods payroll has already been run. It wil through the error 'PayrArea unchangeable for periods for which payroll has run'
    3. So, accordingly modifying the feature ABKRS is also not suggestable.
    one alternate u can try, create a new payroll areas and configure ABKRS for those payroll area without modifying the existing data of feature and assign these to the emps. keep old payroll areas in the system to avoid any kind of inconsistencies. i hope it even doesn't harm u to maintain those payroll areas in system if you are not assigning these to any1. Now according to Usha u cn change the text to avoid any further confusion.

  • Default Payroll Area using Personnel Area

    Hi,
    There is a feature called ABKRS i.e. 'Default value for payroll area'. I want to know if you can default the payroll area using personnel area / personnel sub-area because there is no field decision operation for personnel area/sub-area. Please guide me if there is any way out to it's solution.
    Thanks,
    Irfan Malik

    Hi,
    There is a provision to default the payroll area based on the Personnel area. If the PA / PSA decision parameters are not available at your end you can change the settings for ABKRS feature provided you have the rights to do the same.
    In PE03 for feature ABKRS, select attributes and hit Change.
    There you will see a Tab as "Struct" on the bottom left.
    Click it. You will see various parameters EE, ESG, PA ,PSA, etc.
    Only the ones that are selected will appear as decision parameters for the tree in ABKRS.
    So if PA PSA are not selected, select them, save and then activate the feature.
    Hope this helps.
