Understanding & developing the payroll Schema & Rules in India

Hi
Where do we get the complete details of the IN00 (with some discription)? How do we understand the coding ? If I navigate from the shcema to the rule , the rule appears as one line command and i enter the rule (pe03) i get a different format...
New to this area. Please help
Thanks

Need help- need to read a customer table from the payroll schema

Hi gurus,
I need to read an amonunt from a customer table in the payroll schema. Is it possible to input TABLE XXXX in the schema, or is impossible to read from a customer table?Do I need to create a report to upload the amount in an infotype?
Thanks in advanced for for support!

You should create your own custom operation (based on operation TABLE) to read your custom table from a Payroll PCR.
If your custom table's name is longer than 5 characters, you may be required to use operations VAOFF and/or VALEN prior to your custom operation in the PCR.

Length of service calculation in payroll schema rules

SAP allows you a few options with regard to length of service in months.
F01KJ looks at date type 01 in infotype 0041. It calculates months service based on complete months. If you use option "N" as opposed to "K", then it counts complete and partial months.
My client wants an option in the middle. If a person is employed between the 1st and 15th of January, then in December they want the person to get a full bonus (12 months). If the person is employed between the 16th and 31st of January, then in December they want the person to be paid 11/12 of a bonus.
Is is possible to query the day of a date only and then based on if it's < 15 do x otherwise do y?

What is F01KJ?

Hi all,

Creating Custom Schemas and Rules
Schema and Rule Naming Conventions
Customer modified schemas and rules need to begin with Z. Many customers simply replace the first letter of the standard schema with a Z u2013 i.e., their modified copy of UAP0 becomes ZAP0. But there can be problems with that convention. For example, you might later implement Canadian payroll and need a modified version of schema KAP0, but ZAP0 is already used for the U.S. For many years, I've used a naming convention of Z plus the country identifier and a sequential number for modified rules and schemas. So a modified UAP0 would become ZU01 and a modified KAP0 becomes ZK01.
Editor Documentation
Documentation for the function, operation, schema, and rule editors is available online at http://help.sap.com. Click on SAP R/3 and R/3 Enterprise and then select your release level and language. Then navigate to the Human Resources>HR Tools section.
F1 Help
In the schema and rule editors, place your cursor on a function or operation and press F1 to get help text. A schema or a rule's documentation is available in the editor via the Goto>Documentation menu. In the schema editor, the F4 key shows possible values for each of the four parameters for whatever function is entered on that line. The same documentation u2013 and more u2013 is available via transaction PDSY.
Creating a Test Schema
For testing purposes, it is useful to have a version of the payroll schema that does not care about the control record (transaction PA03) settings. Bypassing the control record lets you run and save the results for any pay period needed, without having to update the control record. There's no problem with having such a schema around, since the payroll driver does not save payroll results from a schema that ignores the control record in a production system. For examples, I will show you how to create two schemas u2013 ZUA0, which will be used in production and will check the control record, and ZUAT, which ignores the control record and is used for testing purposes only.
First, create a copy of SAP's schema UIN0 and name it ZUA2. In the schema editor (transaction PE02) enter schema UIN0, and click the copy button, or Schema>Copy in the menu. Enter ZUA2 for the To schema. Then edit ZUA2 and make the CHECK ABR line executable by removing the asterisk in the D column. The CHECK function is commented out by SAP in the standard schema, so you uncomment it here for use in the main ZUA0 schema.

Calculate number of days between two festival dates in payroll schema

Hi Experts,
According to my company policy:
If an empl termination happens before Eid festival of the current year, then the pro-rated Eid bonus (yearly) is based on:
(The duration between Eid Festival date of previous year - Eid festival date of current year.)/350 days
Time Evaluation is not implemented in the system. Only payroll is implemented.
My question: How can I capture the number of days between (Eid Festival date of previous year - Eid festival date of current year) in the payroll schema ?
Regards,
Somdeb.

Hi,
You can try using date specification. If you update last year eed holiday date for the employee then you can use the operand F along with NUM to get days between last eed holiday and current payroll period last day.
i.e NUM=FaaT 0
F is operand to query date specification.
aa is the date specification.
T is for unit and it gives number of days
next space is for current payroll period last day and 0 will reset alternate date to zero if no date specification is mentioned.
Basically this will give number of days from date mentioned in date type aa to current period last day. For more info you can go through documentation on operand F for NUM.
Let us know if this helps.
Regards,
Poorvi.

Help Needed : Payroll Schema - Function P0014

Dear Experts,
My scenario is as follows, I have an employee whose July Payroll was processed. Thereafter there was a change in basic pay w.e.f from 1st July. Now while evaluating August payroll, retroactive accounting is triggered and both months are processed, and the difference is carried forward.
The function P0014 along with a PCR is being used in the payroll schema, and by looking at the payroll log, I can see that in July's processing it works fine. However when it is called in August's processing, P0014 appears to be empty, and as a result the PCR is not called because there are no wagetypes selected. I want P0014 to be evaluated for August as well, so that the recurring payments are processed twice, in both July and August.
Would really appreciate if anyone can help on this matter.
Regards,
Talha

Yes the employee has an infotype record dated from 1.1.2014 onwards to 31.12.9999, so it should be valid for both months.
I think I am missing something with its evaluation, in that the wagetypes loaded through P0014 can only be processed once.
From my testing I have seen that function P0014 loads the wagetypes only in the first month of evaluation; i.e. if I run Retroactive further back from June; P0014 loads the wagetype while in June Payroll, and is empty for July and August.

Simultaneous development on PY schemes and rules

Dear Colleagues,
I'm working for a big company in the IT department and I'm responsible for the process payroll. We have a lot of developers, who are working on payroll schemes and rules simultaneously for different demands and different go live dates.
The problem we are faced with is, that after go live of a demand or a project, in which a scheme or a calculation rule is included, sometimes an error occurs because of transported statements in schemes or rules, which are not already finished within another demand.
Example:
Project A and Project B is working on the same payroll scheme. Project A has been finished and went live (including the statements of project B), but project B has not finished the development and some new calculation rules or operations are missing on the productive system. Because of this, an error occurs when running the payroll.
Question:
Is it possible to deal with payroll schemes and rules similar like workbench objects? That means, is there any functionality availiable to block those objects for editing, when it is already included in a transport request?
Thanks in advance for any idea or help!
Kindly Regards
Adem Demir

No problem. At some point you will have taken a copy of iteration one's project and added that to CVS as iteration two. From that point onwards your iteration two index would be the same as iteration one. If you added keywords to it, it would be the index to use for iteration two. The index for iteration one would be unaffected as it would still be in CVS in a separate project.
Things only get a little more complicated if you are working on two different iterations of the project at the same time. If this is the case it may be better to finish one iteration first and copy the <projectname>.hhk file into the other project. Provided you haven't rrenamed or deleted any topics all references will be fine.

Trying to understand, being prompted the file compression rules on saving, or not

Hello,
I'm trying to understand something, could I ask for your help, please ?
After working on a jpg file, when I want to save it, still as jpg, with my Photoshop CS5,
- sometimes photoshop will just save the picture, and it's done
- sometimes photoshop will show me the compression dialog, "JPEG Options", in which I can choose the compression ratio, the format options (baseline, baseline optimized, progressive), and have an estimation of the total file size
While not being prompted any dialog is simpler, and I'll then simply assume Photoshop decides to retain the current image's compression and format rules, I must say I like to be in control, and I'd like to know under what form the file is being saved without having to resort to the much more complex "Save For Web" menu.
Please, would you know WHAT "triggers" the appearance of the JPEG Options when we close/save a jpeg file, in photoshop ? What makes this menu not to appear, what makes it appear ?
If there are trivial file operations/changes/filters that necessarily trigger its appearance when we want to save, something like that ? I've tried a variety of these, but I still can't figure it out, sometimes it shows in the end, and sometimes it doesn't.
Thank you very much if you can help me
Kind regards,
Oliver

@ c.pfaffenbichler
These are images from various sources, not just one.
I'm deliberately excluding Save For Web, this completely re-processes everything.
My purpose, precisely, is to know when photoshop takes the decision to retain the image's "rules", and when photoshop decides to pose us the question, how do we want it saved.
Simply taking a jpeg image, doing stuff on it, and hitting control-w to close the window, and seeing if it will be an
- «OK, sure, do you want to save ? You clicked OK to confirm you wanted the changes saved ? Good, now it's closed» or a
- «please sir, how would you like your image saved, tell me the compression ratio and the format options, thank you»

How to permit multiple workspaces to access the same schema?

Hello,
When creating a new workspace (version 3.2), I am getting the following warnings:
"Warning: The requested schema already exists. Warning: The requested schema is already assigned to one or more workspaces. Please ensure that giving multiple workspaces access to the same schema is permitted by the security policies at your site before approving this request."
How do I "ensure that giving multiple workspaces access to the same schema is permitted"?
What are the advantages/disadvantages of doing so?
Thanks,
Gabor

The correct answer to it would have been: I use manual provisioning.I didn't ask a detailed enough question. What I am wondering is how you are set up to to workspace provisioning at your site. In apex_admin, if you navigate to Home>Manage Service>Instance Settings there is a radio group like:
Provisioning Status:
0 Manual - An administrator manually creates each workspace
0 Request - Link displayed on login page enabling users to request workspaces
0 Email Verification - Workspace created after email address is verified by the user
The help text for this is:
Provisioning Status:
Determines how the process of provisioning (or creating) a workspace works for your development instance. Options include:
    * Manual - An Application Express administrator manually creates new workspaces and notifies the Workspace administrator of the login information.
    * Request - Users request workspaces directly in a self-service fashion. Selecting this option displays a link on the Login page enabling users to request a workspace. When a user requests a workspace, each request is submitted to a queue for approval.
    * Email Verification - Works similar to Request except each user receives an initial email containing a link. Clicking this link validates the user's email address before the request is processed.
Note: To enable users to request a workspace using a link on the Login page, you must choose Request or Email Verification. If you select Manual, no link appears on the login page.How is yours set up?
As to the first original question (How do I "ensure that giving multiple workspaces access to the same schema is permitted"?), I still do not know.Whether it is permitted or not is a decision made by the apex site administrator who approves/declines workspace requests. Whether it ought to be permitted is a different question and is really same as your second question which involves issues you said you are now starting to understand better. So I think we've covered your original questions. If not, please elaborate.
As to the last subject (How did the hidden workspace get created and how do I get rid of id? What happens if I don't?), this happened at work, so I can only tell you more on Monday (luckily...). Until then, here is what I remember. The work space was created, which is proven by the fact that when I want to create a new workspace with the same name, I am getting an error, which says that a workspace with that name already exists. However, I cannot delete the workspace, since it show up nowhere.No hidden workspace got created. I'm pretty sure the request is just in the queue waiting to be approved/declined. In the meantime a workspace with the same name cannot be requested.
By the way, how do you quote some text here? I just put a '>' in the first character position before the text to quote. You can also use the " rich text icon above the text pane.

I'm trying to get a style switcher going for my site(for the colour scheme)

I'd like to give my users the choice of changing the colour
scheme of my site (
http://chaoscoalition.net) at
will, through css style changing buttons such as the ones on the
forum's theme(
http://forum.chaoscoalition.net).
I've read many articles and tutorials on how to set up
alternate stylesheets for a webpage, but I can't quite get it
right. Every time I seem to have gotten it right, it either opens
the php file that sets the cookie, or it opens the stylesheet as
text. I want to end up with something like the forum's theme
changing module, but for the homepage.
I have 5 different versions of the page made, all as
different pages(php format), but I don't understand how to link the
buttons at the top to trigger the stylesheet change, and I don't
even knwo if it's possible to rely on a css file to change the
whole colour scheme of the page(which is image based).
It'd be great if someone could walk me through this, or offer
some tutorial that explains how to do this from scratch.
Thank you.

First, never use Fireworks or any graphics app to build HTML and CSS for you. The resulting code is rigid, fragile and only good for quick comps or prototypes to show a client. Use DW to generate actual site code.
Secondly, external stylesheets must not contain JavaScripts or X/HTML code as your green.css does. Only CSS rules and comments are allowed inside external stylesheets - like so:
/**Green CSS**/
body {
     margin:0 auto;/**this centers page**/
     padding:0;
     width: 900px;
     font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
     color: white;
     background: green; /**this is green**/

About schemas, rules and queues

Hi experts,
I'm a SAP HCM newbie and would like to know about the following:
1. What do we exactly do with payroll schema? I understand that we customize the country specific schemas (US in my case) but can someone provide examples of real life customization that we will have to encounter?
2. Similarly, example of PCRs?
3. What are queues and where do we use them?
Points shall be awarded! Thanks!

Changing the automatic Distribution Rule from Per to Full

Hello SAPians,
I have a scenario where the Customer is maintaining the Moving Average Price (I know this is not SAP suggested, I am in the process of convincing to move from moving avg to Std) for the Semi-finished goods and finished goods.
It is Product Cost by Order scenario where Process Orders are using and the settlement rule to the Material and distribution rule is "Per" (Periodic). The main reason Customer had this Per was they would not be able to settle the Order once they settle it in full.
But due to increased issues in month end atctivities due to thie 'Per' settlement (settlement of Process Orders not settling properly in the last month due to the failure of Batch jobs and other reasons). I want to suggest them to use Distribution Rule 'Full' instead of 'Per' because of the following advantages considering the above scenario.
1. The 'Full' settlement can be settled if the Order is not in Teco or closed status any number of times as long as there is the Variance sitting on the Order.
2. The 'Full' Distribution rule will not create issue if the variance is sitting on the Order in the closed period because when you do the settlement in the next period, system will allocate the variances from the last period to the Material Receiver in the current Period(I have not yet tested this scenario) and has not been. (Yeah I know there will be issue if the Material has been moved out of inventory before the settlement happens, they have another set up to update the Material prices manually by keeping the track of cost of Material).
3. So the config change will be the Product cost by Order -> Manufacturing Order-> Define Cost-Accounting-Relevant Default Values for Order Typ --> change the Default rule from PP1 to PP2 'Process orders (periodic settlement)'
Please let me know if what I am thinking is wrong based on this sceanrio and also please give me some more insight if I am missing any points.
Thank you very much for your time!
-Harter.

Hi Balaji/Ajay,
Could you please help me in understanding the effect of Variances if I change the Order type to FULL in this scenario (Moving Average price for Finished good Material)?
I checked the configuration and the Variance is only Total Variance that is settling to FI and COPA.
Also client is more concentrated on Variance accumulated per year and not per month.
Let's say I have Order in Period 9 where the actual debits on the Order are $1000 and actual credits are $1200 where balance (variance) is $200 and suppose I missed the Period 9 settlement and I want to settle this Order in Period 10 where I had $100 variance in that Period 10
Period         Variance on Order                Status
9              $200                   missed
10              $100                   not yet
So now when I settle the Order in period 10 (with FULL as settlement type), it settles $300 instead of $100 variance. So if this is the case, if I look at the Variance data, yes the variance data is wrong but if I look at yearly perspective, it looks right but I think I am missing something here, right?
Also what happens if the Order is open more than one year and the same scenario happens, the Variance will be posted to new year which is again issue, right?
Am I in the right direction?
Please advice.
Thank you,
-Harter.

Payroll scheme - quarter and semi-annual payments

Hi.
I have the following questions concerning Payroll scheme I am working on.
How can I check the following conditions?
1. A wage type (WT) for quarter payment has not to be paid to a worker if he was hired during the last month of a quarter. For example, a worker was hired in September 01, 2011 - thus, in September a WT shouldn't be paid to him, 'cause September is the last month of a 3rd quarter.
2. Another WT for semi-annual payment has not to be payed to a worker if he has been hired during the last 2 months of a half year period. For example, the worker was hired in November 01, 2011 - thus, in November and December a WT for semi-annual payment shoudn't be paid to him.
Please, give me any tips to solve the issue, thank you.

rkvarma,
with which function will I be able to determine the months to start from?
I want to make the following:
- for quarter payments - to determine months 3, 6, 9, 12, and if employees were hired during these months, then the WT shouldn't be paid.
- for semi-annual payments - to determine months 5,6 and 11,12, and if employees were hired during these months, then the WT shouldn't be paid.
How to do this?

E613 SYST: You cannot determine the period for rule 03

Dear All,
We are configuring asset module and using MSTL dep key for Tax books. When we tried to create an asset with MSTL dep key, we encountered error - 'E613 SYST: You cannot determine the period for rule 03'. when verified config OAVH Define Calender Assignments transaction, Period control '03' is missing for fiscal year variant K4. Period control is exisiting in Maintain Period Control and but not in Define Calender Assignment. What I understand these period controls are being delivered by SAP. Not sure why period control '03' is missing. all other period control keys are available.
question is how to add period control 03 so that we can use MSTL dep key. we are currently using 4.7c. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks
Sunil

message went abruptly before I finish.
+++++++++
continuing from previous email
Period control 01 has following entry in the transaction
Fiscal Year Variant Per control Name of the period control Year Month Day Period Mid Month
K4 01 Pro rata at period start date blank 0 0 blank not selected
If I follow SAP help to define period control '03', then I just need to copy period control '01' which is listed above and select 'Mid Month' check box.
Wondering anyone did this in the past. MSTL depreciation key is being used in MACRS tax for US. I am sure people who have implemented assets module for US with tax dep, they might have encountered this issue.
thanks
Sunil

How to register the same schema with same URL

I'm getting ORA-31085 error when try to register the same schema with same URl.
My requirement is that I should be able to reregister the same schema with the same URL .
I'm using the following function :
PROCEDURE validateXmlSchema(inp_xmlMsg IN VARCHAR2,
out_isValidDoc IN OUT NUMBER,
inp_xmlSchema IN OUT VARCHAR2,
out_varchar_notused OUT VARCHAR2)IS
xmldoc XMLType;
res number;
BEGIN
xmldoc := XMLtype(inp_xmlMsg);
res := xmldoc.isSchemaValid(inp_xmlSchema);
IF (xmldoc.isSchemaValid = 1) THEN
out_isValidDoc := 1;
ELSE
out_isValidDoc := 0;
END IF;
END validateXmlSchema;
This is used recursively.Until the schema is not validated for a given URL this function should keep on throwing error and once the schema is validated the data should be inserted in the DB.
But its not happening as of now instead the ORA-31085 is thrown second time.
Plz provide pointers to solve the issue.

I believe the OP is talking about a dropdown menu like this

not about a "select menu".
I could be wrong though...
