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
Rachana.

  • Change of Customer Payment Terms and Its Impact On Invoice

    Hi All,
    i would like to know that I have few open customer invoices for a customer. Now I have changed the Credit terms from 30 days to 60 days. Of-course it will not automatically impact on the already created accounting documents. Is there a way that i can update the accounting documents with new credit term days so that the due dates can be recalculated.
    Please advise
    Many Thanks
    SAPXPT 

    It doesn't work that Way.... need small ABAP changes in the standard program: Just follow as given below but need to be done with ABAPer as it needs access key to change the standard programs:
    Symptom
    On the new line item list (transactions FBL1N, FBL3N, FBL5N (FAGLL03 as of ERP2004)), you can carry out a mass change for certain document fields. You want to add fields to the mass change that do not exist in the SAP standard system.
    Other Terms
    FBL1N, FBL3N, FBL5N, RFITEMAP, RFITEMGL, RFITEMAR, FB02, FB03, document change, mass change, FAGLL03, FAGL_ACCOUNT_ITEMS_GL
    Reason and Prerequisites
    Fields for the mass change are not contained in the SAP standard system.
    Solution
    Note:
    The following solution refers to transactions FBL1N, FBL3N and FBL5N. If you want to create the changes for the line item display of the new general ledger (FAGLL03), do not make the changes in the FI_ITEMS function group (LFI_ITEMSI01). Instead, make the changes in the FAGL_ITEMS_DISPLAY function group (LFAGL_ITEMS_DISPLAYI01).
    Solution:
    Carry out the enhancements described below in your system and test them thoroughly.
    Note: SAP cannot guarantee that the modified mass change will work correctly even if you carry out all of the steps as described in the manual tasks.
    Preparation:
                Go to the line item list, select a document and choose 'Change document' in the menu bar.
               In general, all the fields that can be changed in the following screen can be changed in the mass change If you choose 'Additional data', the system displays an additional dialog box. The fields that can be changed in this dialog box can also be included in the mass change. You cannot change the CPD data of a document in a mass change.
               Make sure to remember whether the system displays the field that you want to include in the mass change (from now on referred to as 'XYZ') on the main screen or in the additional dialog box. Also note that this can differ for customer accounts, vendor accounts or G/L accounts.
    Enhancement of the screen for the mass change:
               To manually change the screen for the mass change in the line item display, proceed as follows:
    Call transaction SE80 to display the FI_ITEMS function group.
    Expand the 'Screens' folder and double-click screen number '0100'.
    Choose '-> Layout' (note that you must use the graphic layout editor for the following steps).
    The system now displays another dialog box: 'Screen Painter: Change input/output field'. In this dialog box, choose 'Display <-> Change'. You should now be able to modify the screen.
    Choose 'F6'. The system generates another dialog box: 'Screen Painter: Dict./Program fields'.
    Enter *BSEG-XYZ in the command line as a table/field name and choose Enter.
    The system displays a relevant table row in the large white window. Select this line and choose the pushbutton with the green checkmark in the lower left corner.
    Place the cursor on a suitable position on the first 'Screen Painter: Change input/output field' and left-click. The system then displays the required selection field including the description. You can now move it to the required position on the screen.
    Select the white selection field of the two new selection fields and choose 'F2'.
    The system generates the additional dialog box: 'Screen Painter: Attributes'. Select the 'DICT' tab page in the 'Attributes' section and deactivate the 'foreign key check' if it is activated.
    Test, save and activate the screen.
    Manual source code changes:
                You have to modify the SAP standard source code as follows:
    First change:
                         Call transaction SE80 to display the FI_ITEMS function group.
                        Expand the 'Screens' folder and double-click screen number '0100'.
                        Select the 'Flow logic' tab. Add the row marked with "<-----INSERT LINE to the source code:
    field *bseg-bvtyp module req_bvtyp on request.
    field *bseg-rstgr module req_rstgr on request.
    field *bseg-cession_kz module req_cession_kz on request.
    field *bseg-xyz module req_xyz on request.  "<--INSERT LINE
    Second change:
                         Call transaction SE80 to display the FI_ITEMS function group.
                        Create the module req_xyz in the LFI_ITEMSI01 include:
    module req_xyz.
    fldtab-fname = 'XYZ'.
    fldtab-aenkz = 'M'.
    collect fldtab.
    endmodule.
    Third change:
                         Call transaction SE80 to display the FI_ITEMS function group.
                        In the 'SCREEN_DETAIL' subroutine, add the rows marked with " <-----INSERT LINE  if XYZ is displayed on the main screen of the document change (see above):
    when 'HBKID'.
    zusatzbild = 'X'.
    continue.
    when 'XYZ'.                        "<-----INSERT LINE
    bdcdata-fnam = 'BSEG-XYZ'.        "<-----INSERT LINE
    bdcdata-fval = s_bseg-xyz.        "<-----INSERT LINE (*)
                        If the XYZ field is displayed in the additional dialog box, add the following rows marked with "<-----INSERT LINE instead:
    when 'HBKID'.
    zusatzbild = 'X'.
    continue.
    when 'XYZ'.                        "<-----INSERT LINE
    zusatzbild = 'X'.                 "<-----INSERT LINE
    continue.                        "<-----INSERT LINE
    when 'HBKID'.
    bdcdata-fnam = 'BSEG-HBKID'.
    bdcdata-fval = s_bseg-hbkid.
    append bdcdata.
    when 'XYZ'.                        "<-----INSERT LINE
    bdcdata-fnam = 'BSEG-XYZ'.        "<-----INSERT LINE
    bdcdata-fval = s_bseg-xyz.        "<-----INSERT LINE (*)
    append bdcdata.                  "<-----INSERT LINE
                        Note: If conversions of data formats are involved, you may have to insert the following row instead of the row marked with (*):
    write s_bseg-xyz to bdcdata-fval.    "<-----INSERT LINE
                        For an example, see Note 573954 about the mass change of the baseline date for payment ZFBDT.
    Save and activate the source code changes.
    Notes on error handling:
               If the mass change does not occur as required even though you changed and activated all program parts, note that the error log for the mass change (Environment -> Mass change -> Error log of line item list) may contain useful information for error handling.
               In addition, see Notes 573954, 577792 or 322163 for more information.

  • Changing useful life an asset and its impacts

    Hi Gurus,

    Hello Parul
    Sorry but this functionality is only available as of release 6.0 if you have the

    particular section 4. c) Managing time-dependent depreciation parameters:
    With the new depreciation calculation, you now have the option to 
    change depreciation terms during the fiscal year. This means that 
    the changed parameters are included in the calculation always     
    from the period for which the period is also valid.
      The following depreciation terms can be maintained   time-dependently on the   fixed asset:                 
      -  Depreciation Keys                                                                               
    -  Useful life

  • Help needed in index creation and its impact on insertion of records

    Hi All,
    I have a situation like this, and the process involves 4 tables.
    Among the 4 tables, 2 tables have around 30 columns each, and the other 2 has 15 columns each.
    This process contains validation and insert procedure.
    I have already created some 8 index for one table, and an average of around 3 index on other tables.
    Now the situation is like, i have a select statement in validation procedure, which involves select statement based on all the 4 tables.
    When i try to run that select statement, it takes around 30 secs, and when checked for plan, it takes around 21k memory.
    Now, i am in a situation to create new index for all the table for the purpose of this select statement.
    The no.of times this select statement executes, is like, for around 1000 times of insert into table, 200 times this select statement gets executed, and the record count of these tables would be around one crore.
    Will the no.of index created in a table impacts insert statement performace, or can we create as many index as we want in a table ? Which is the best practise ?
    Please guide me in this !!!
    Regards,
    Shivakumar A

    Hi,
    index creation will most definitely impact your DML performance because when inserting into the table you'll have to update index entries as well. Typically it's a small overhead that is acceptable in most situations, but the only way to say definitively whether or not it is acceptable to you is by testing. Set up some tests, measure performance of some typical selects, updates and inserts with and without an index, and you will have some data to base your decision on.
    Best regards,

  • SAP Adhoc Query by payroll area and respective periods

    Hello,
    I would get an idea of how to make SAP query by having a selection screen for Payroll area and its respectve periods (respective control record).  I was able to get the selection screen where I can input payroll area. But the date range for the report is a manual feed. I want something like when we select the payroll area, then I want the periods to be shown (payroll period - current period or other period). I'm new to making this SAP query. Any inupt is appreciated. Thanks.
    Raj.

    in the adhoc query we can select the periods based on the frequency but the dates will not get default
    As in the Pay roll driver the dates get defaulted based on the settings made in Control Record Status
    so i dont think this is possible thru Standrad
    let wait for expert views

  • Help needed on "Archiving in R/3 and its impact"

    Hi All,
    I will be pleased if Any one who can guide me or send me a document on "Archiving in R/3 and its impact"
    Thanks in advance.

    i don't remember such a document ...
    some extractors like lo cockpit 11 and 13 can extract data from archive, but most of the extractors can't.
    the workaround is, to reload the data from archive in a new r3 table and build an generic extractor on it. then you can load the data to bw. after that you can refresh the table.
    i also heard of direct loading from archive, but i never tried.

  • HR ABAP - PAYROLL - Copy existing payroll function and changes

    Hello all,
    Required a help over an issue with HR ABAP - Payroll module.
    My requirement is to Copy an existing custom Payroll Function (Transaction PE04), into a new one. The existing payroll function has the code for updating payroll results in RT table. I have to change the statements in the new function making sure that now it will update  IT/OT table instead of RT table.
    Kindly help me with the issue.
    Thanks,
    Ruchir.

    Hi,
    you can not copy function as i know. you should create a new one and copy code from the existing function to new function and modify code for the new requirement. this will be mush easier.

  • How to define the size of report area and its elements?

    How can I define the report area size and its elements? And how can I define that for each printed paper, the details area will repeat horizontally or vertically?
    Is there any way to change the measuring units?
    Are there any difference between Crystal Reports that is bundled with Visual Studio 2005 to the standalone version that don't allow me doing what I need?
    Thanks.

    Hi Juliano,
    I hope this is what you had in mind...
    1.  File / Page setup: set your paper size, portrait/landscape and margins.
    2.  Section Expert: the page header &footer sections are 'locked' in that each page will have the space indicated dedicated to these sections; report header & footer - this is the space dedicated on the first and last page of the document. The remaining space available will be used up by the Details section.
    I'm not sure how you can get the Details to print verticall vs horizontally - except maybe with cross-tab format.
    3.  Measuring units: is this for the ruler? This is pulled from your computer settings.
    The rest I'm not sure about but I hope this is enough to get you started!

  • HT5622 I've changed my Apple ID email and its all verified ok but on my iPhone 5 every time I go to update an App or buy an App it comes up with my old Apple ID and asks me for a password. Why doesn't it have my new ID because on Apple ID link it does?

    I've changed my Apple ID password and when I go to the Apple ID link the changes have been emailed and are all verified. However, when I try to do something with an App or iTunes  etc on my iPhone 5 it still comes up with my old Apple ID and asks me for the password and I don't have the option to overtyped the Sppld ID section with the new email I've set. I can't update Apps or buy Apps because of this. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

    I am not getting my email verification for my icloud when I click icloud on my phone the screen is locked or something wont let me choose anything. its saying check my emil for verification but nothing is coming to my email

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • SharePoint online customization in SharePoint designer and its impact on upgradation.

    Hi,
    We are using SharePoint online 2013 for our site development. We are required to have tabbed view. In order to make those tabs more modular, extendable and easily maintainable we have added WebPart zones inside each tab. We have done this by editing page
    in SharePoint designer.
    As by changing a page in SharePoint designer would make it un-ghosted page. I am curious to know whether this practice makes problems when SharePoint online 2013 would get up-graded in future with new version.
    Thanks a lot!

    arvind chamoli

    You should not face issue with this kind of setting in future unless and untill the code\webpart you used has any change in future version of sharepoint.
    Making masterpage changes and changes on page, webparts are within the scope of sharepoint online so it should be fine

  • US Payroll -Employee Pay-Checks and its impact on G/L accts

    Hi Experts,
                    I am faced with a dilemma with this issue. It will be great if you can let me know on how to go about this issue:
    US - Two employee pay checks dated in December of 2008 were voided in January 2009. Not only is this reflected in the 2008 state tax withholding data, which it should be, but  it is also subtracting from the G/L and the payroll reconciliation reports for 1st Qtr 2009.  This should not happen. 
    The W-2 reports are correct.
    This is also affecting the unemployment reporting for these states as well.
    Thanks And Regards,
