Need support - Writing PCR (To find missing clock-in and clock-out)

Hi Gurus,
I need support on writing PCR on below scenario.
Scenario:
Need to determin missing clock-in and clock-out punches and generates LOP for the same.
Regards,
Raji

Hi,
In this case you need to build logic like the follow.
Assumptions: mulitiple time pairs are there.
First check employee present or not, then check data coming through time events or not then check first pair after that take HRS value as start time of first pair if yes store day balances in ABCD. in case of No check Last pair take end time store in as day balance BCDE. after that based on day balance values genearte wagetypes in another PCR.
Note: in same PCR you can store wage type aslo.

SAP 700 or writing PCR's and SCHEMAS.

What is SAP 700 ?
Actually we want to learn on writing PCR's and SCHEMAS.
Could any body please guide on this topic .
Thanks in advance...

I have a word document on PCRs & Schemas & its not copyrighted.. you can drop me an email for that.. the id is on my business card..
SAP 700? well haven't heard of it.. going by the naming convention, I guess ERP 2006 would be SAP ECC 7.0 as of now we have only ERP2005 ie SAP ECC 6.0 available for unrestricted shipment.. or are you refrerring to WAS700 the erstwhile BASIS.. then its part of ERP2005.
I would check service.sap.com for the Solution details..

Hi,
No need to write to 2 PCR ,with one pcr itself it can be calculated . Here maintain overtime hrs in 15 infotype ,such that overtime hrs will be stored in a wage type say 9ovt .
Pcr can be build in this way
90vt
num = 90vt(where overtime hrs will be transfered to num)
num?0.5
< ( if the hrs is 30 mins )
your logic
= (30 mins )
logic calc
> (30 min)
amt = 1001 (basic wage type)
amt = 1001 div 2
some calc
div ana (for dividing with the no of hrs and passing the overtime value to the amt)
addwt *
Hope it helps u

Issue with PCR to restrict absence quota

Hi Experts.
i have a requirement where the absence quota should never be over 24 at any particular time.
for this absence 24 leaves per annum with 2 leaves accumulate monthly.
we are using -ve time mgt and written a PCR to restrict absence to 24 by using Time type
VARSTLDYPP
N
Y
HRS=FR55C
HRS?24
<
HRS-24
HRS*-1
HRS?2
HRS=2
ADDDBXXXX

ADDDBXXXX
now the issue is when i run the simulation of time evaluation it is generating 2 leaves per year instead of
2 per month. can anybody help me solve the issue
Thanks & Regards

I need a PCR for the below scenario. I created two types to store day balance and max entitlement to 25 days.   We are not processing payroll from SAP.   Any help writing PCR with details would be appreciated.
Schema we are copying TM04
Time types - storing daily balance one for below 60 days & one for after 60 days planned working time.
Vacation per calendar year 25 days not based on seniority.
Scenario:
2.       Prorated entitlement for employees who will work fewer than 60 work days for company in a given year are calculated as follows:
a.     1/12 of annual vacation for every 21 days s/he performs work
b.    For these purposes (60 days worked rule) the following is also considered as work performance: Planned working time from IT0007 and public holidays.
c.     e.g. if hired on Nov 11, 2011, there < 60 wd remaining. They get 1/12 (25/12 = 2.1d) for every 21 work days remaining - in this case 2 periods of 21 wd, since RIM days and holidays are included as work days, for a total of 4.5 days (round up to half-day).
3.       Prorated entitlement for employees who will work 60 or more work days for RIM in a given year are calculated as follows:
a.     1/12th of annual entitlement for every calendar month of completed work
b.    E.g. If George is hired on July 15 2011, he gets 10.5 days of vacation entitlement.
c.     The number of full months George will have worked by the end of the calendar year is five u2013 Aug to Dec incl. George gets no entitlement from the 16 days from July 15 to July 31st.
5 / 12 * 25 days = 10.4 days, rounded up to 10.5 days.
Thanks,
Mani.

Schemas and PCRs

hi, experts.
i need help in learning schemas and writing PCRs. please suggest me any book or send me any document that will help.
regards,
madhu

hai..
How to read rules and Schemas
1.Structure of relationship in Rules and Schemas:
a)Schemas consist of Functions and Sub-schemas
b)Some functions have the rules attached to it as one of its parameter
c)Rules consist of a set of operations to perform some actions
d)Operations and Functions are the executable components
As per the diagram Set of Operations make a Rule which in turn attached to some functions and those functions embedded in Schemas or Sub-schemas (Inside the main schemas) to decide the flow of the payroll program.
Structure of a Schema:
Func:
This column is used to give a function name.
Par1, Par2, Par3, Par4:
1. Function has maximum four parameters.
2. The function can have zero to four parameters as per the definition of the function.
3. Pressing F4 we can get the list of all the values which can be used as parameters.
4. For some functions in the first parameter is the name of the rule created.
5. These parameter values are predefined the function is being created.
D:
1. This column is used to comment and uncomment a function.
2. If (*) is being put then the line is commented and will not be executed in Payroll processing.
3. If nothing is given then the line would be executable.
Desc
1. In this column description for the function is being used.
Functions:
Functions are used for;
Performing some payroll computations (E.g. INEPF function calculates the PF amount of an employee during payroll run)
Calling rules (E.g. P0045 function calls a rule INLN to compute the loan details of a personnel number).
Getting data from Infotypes (E.g. P0581 will get the data from Infotype-581 for payroll processing).
For some decisions. (E.g. IF & ENDIF function is used to execute as per the true and false decisions) etc.
Rules:
Rules are used for holding a set of operations for a particular requirement to be accomplished.
Attributes:
1. Program Class.
a. There are two program classes to be assigned to the rule while creating.
i. Payroll (C).
ii. Time (T).
2. Country Grouping.
a. For Payroll program class the country grouping should be mentioned. (E.g. 40 for India).
b. For Time management rule the country grouping should be (*).
3. Employee Sub-grouping.
a. All the wagetypes have an attribute of employee sub-grouping.
b. It varies client to client.
c. Value 3 means EE sub-grouping is 3.
d. Value * means all EE Sun-groupings.
4. Wagetypes.
a. The wagetype in the internal table which is meant to be processed by the rule.
b. If a value for Wagetype is being given then the particular wagetype is being queried for processing.
c. If **** has been given then all the wagetypes present in the particular internal table will be processed.
Structure of the Rule.
Frequently Used Internal Tables in PY Processing:
The Payroll driver uses lots of internal tables used for storing data temporarily in the program for processing. Some of the important internal tables are:
The structure of internal tables:
EE Sub-grouping:
1. The Wagetype is assigned to a particular Employee sub-group.
2. 3 is a particular employee subgroup for basic pay wagetype.
3. * value means for all EE sub-grouping.
Wagetype Code:
1. The Wagetype code number is the number assigned to a particular pay component.
Wagetype Description:
1. The description for the wagetype code.
NUM:
1. If there is a split for the wagetypes then this NUM field will make them different.
2. If A persons basic salary is changed in the mid of the month then the wagetype will be split in two amounts with NUM = 01 and NUM = 02.
RTE:
1. The RTE column stores a value for;
a. Rate of interest.
b. Number of leave days.
c. Projection factor. Etc.
2. E.g. In the above diagram /401 wagetype has RTE value 10 which is the projection factor used for different calculations.
AMT:
1. This column possesses the amount of the particular wagetype.
Use of the internal tables:
1. The internal tables are being used for calculations on the NUM, RTE & AMT fields.
2. These internal tables are being read by the rules row by row.
3. The Calculation rule would be only processed for those wagetypes which are specified in the rules source code.
4. The row in the internal table containing the wagetype which has been defined in rule attributes will be placed in the header of the internal table for processing.
5. The processing would be as per the operations used in the rule.
Some important Operations & Functions:
The editor for Operations and Functions is PE04.
While the payroll driver encounters a function and operation it would call a subroutine written in the payroll driver.
The subroutine name for the operation will be OP****, Where **** will be the name of the operation.
For E.g. for Operation AMT the subroutine name would be OPAMT.
The code written for the function will be found as a subroutine in payroll driver as FU****, where **** will be the name of the function.
For E.g. for function INEPF the subroutine name would be FUINEPF.
Operations:
AMT:
1. This Operation would fetch the Amount of the wagetype queried in the rule, in the Variable AMT for processing.
2. The Syntax of the Operation is ZZZOVVVV.
3. ZZZ -> AMT.
4. O -> Operand.
5. VVV -> Value or Variable.
6. For E.g. (AMT= 1000) will fetch the Amount of Wagetype 1000 into AMT.
7. Pressing F1 on the AMT Operation will provide the documentation.
RTE:
1. This Operation would fetch the Rate of the wagetype queried in the rule, in the Variable RTE for processing.
2. The Syntax of the Operation is ZZZOVVVV.
3. ZZZ -> RTE.
4. O -> Operand.
5. VVV -> Value or Variable.
6. For E.g. (RTE= /401) will fetch the Rate of Wagetype /401 into RTE.
7. Pressing F1 on the RTE Operation will provide the documentation.
NUM:
1. This Operation would fetch the Split indicator of the wagetype queried in the rule, in the Variable NUM for processing.
2. The Syntax of the Operation is ZZZOVVVV.
3. ZZZ -> NUM.
4. O -> Operand.
5. VVV -> Value or Variable.
6. For E.g. (NUM= 1000) will fetch the Split indicator of Wagetype 1000 into NUM.
7. Pressing F1 on the NUM Operation will provide the documentation.
ADDWT:
1. This Operation will append one more row in the internal table (Processed by the rule).
2. After calculating an amount from a particular wagetype the amount can be assigned to another wagetype and append to the internal table.
3. For E.g. ADDWT 2050 will add the NUM, RTE, AMT calculated to the NUM, RTE & AMT of the wagetype 2050.
4. If the Wagetype 2050 is not there before in the internal table then NUM, RTE & AMT would be 0.
5. If any value of these three variables are present before then they will be added to the calculated ones.
Functions:
PIT:
1. This function will read the internal table IT (Input table).
2. The function will hold a rule as first parameter.
PRT:
1. This function will read the internal table RT (Results table).
2. The function will hold a rule as first parameter.
PDT:
1. This function will read the internal table IT (Input table).
2. The function will hold a rule as first parameter.
PORT:
1. This function will read the internal table ORT (Old results table).
2. The function will hold a rule as first parameter.
P0014:
1. This function will read the Infotype 0014 for processing.
2. The function will hold a rule as first parameter.

best regards,

Hi,
You don´t have to worry. The idea of the forum is to give help on what you know no matter you are an expert or not.
Being ZPESI a constant from t511k it must have a K before. For example AMT?KZPESI.
Being ZMESI a constant from t511p it must have an I before. For example NUM=IZMESI
And as Remi say you should check the parameters use in the schema to call the PCR.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Edoardo

PCR Operation

Dear Experts,
I am new to PCRs,
I am want to to subtract values in one wage type with other. what operation i should use?
How can i do this?
Please help me.
Charle.

Hi Charle,
Wagetypes in PCR have 3 place holders for value RATE, NUMBER, AND AMOUNT, used in PCRs as RTE, NUM, and AMT.
Assume you have wagetype XXXX and YYYY. If you want to deduct the amount held in XXXX by the amount held in YYYY, then write a PCR for wage type XXXX and add the following:
AMT- YYYY
ADDWT *
where XXXX is the wage type and the line ADDWT * will add the values back into the IT table (Assuming you are dealing with the IT table, otherwise ADDWTE* will add it to the RT table).
Here is a link that helped me alot when i was started writing PCRs.

Rounding in a PCR

Hi Gurus,
I want to capture overtime times after 8 hours,in TM00 schema and want to round the OT hours as
if an employee work 8hrs 29mins it should show as 0 OT
if an employee work 8hrs 35mins it should show as 30 mins OT
if an employee work 8hrs 40mins it should show as 45mins OT
if an employee work 8hrs 50mins it should show as 45 minsOT
it should round to nearest 15 mins.......and want to include all the conditions in writing PCR
i have identified PCR TO40 to round overtime hours in TM00 schema or should i write my own PCR...
please help me out...........?????????
Akhil

Hi Akhil,
You have seen the PCR TO40 if u see here it will round the time with the constant TMRND which is 0.25 in T511k.You can insert a small rule in time for the total attendance hrs and check it and use operation ROUND S
The number field of the time pair irounded, and the start time adjuste accordingly.And then ROUNDnn where nn is the minutes u can set in your case it will be 15.
Thanks

Value not coming to PBEG

Dear All,
I'm writing PCR for late coming.
But when i cal HRS = PBEG i'm not getting value in PBEG.
Still when i check in in types i'm getting the in time and same should be read in PBEG.
Can anyone tell why this is happening.
Thanks
Eswar

Hello Eswar,
I hope you are calling the PCR using the function PTIP. Can you run the schema in debug mode and see what's happening under the new PCR. Check the input / processing and output of the rule.
If you have already done this, reply back with the details of rule and I would be glad to help you out.

Country specific to 99

Dear Experts,
Kindly let me know the possibilities to use some country version for other countries for which SAP localization not released
Since there is no SAP country specific version for Oman, is it possible to call Saudi specific schema and country specific feature from Other country versions (99)
Please provide your suggestions
Regards,
R.Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
i thing your talking about payroll.. If you don't have country specific payroll for Oman then you have to go for the international payroll. For this you need to use 99 as the country grouping ( molga). And use the international payroll schema X000.
you need to incorporate all your statutory deduction or payments via writing PCR. you should not copy the feature or schema for other country version because all this schema and feature will read the value from it's own specific country group tables. For an example if you copy the schema for Saudi, it will read the saudi country group payroll related tables.
But if you still wanted to make a copy , then you copy and make it to customer feature or schema and ask your ABAP er to change the structure of schema or feature to read the value according to your country group 99.
Regards,
Dinesh.
