In the Payroll Calculation Selection Screen (t-code = PC00_Mxx_CALC, where xx represents the Country Code), the only time you should use the "Other period" radio button is when you are doing Payroll Simulations.

As mentioned by Shruti, if Master Data that is significant for Payroll was modified retroactively, Payroll Calculation will automatically run retroactively for that employee.

Usually, the only time a user enters a date in the "" field is when changes with a retroactive impact were done to a Schema/PCR or to a Table (such as the Salary Grid that was corrected).

Hi jaiKrishna, You can use current period option to run payroll for the current month (April) and also for the previous payroll periods (January). In this context, running payroll would help you to view payroll results of the current and previous payroll periods if there are any master data changes. You can achieve this, 1. Retro active accounting should set to January payroll period in payroll control record 2. By making changes to master data, system will find out, Earliest MD change in Infotype 0003, and it would pick January also. 3. When you run payroll in April, and If there are any changes to master data for Jan, previous payroll results and current payroll results for Jan and current payroll results for April will be shown. 4. Check payroll results using pc_payresult. I have attached screenshot for your reference. 5. You can view retro differences as well. Please let me know if you need any clarifications. Please reward me with points.

My control record is in April month (Released for payroll mode).. I want to run the Retro for Jan month by using "Current period". Is it possible or not?? If yes, then how?

HI Jayasimha

The system would definitely run retro on its own if you have made some adjustments for the Jan period which should be accounted in the current period. Alternatively, you can do a forced retro by providing 01.01.2015 in the Forced Retro field on the input screen.

As mentioned earlier system always considers the retro if any differences are there in master data which results difference in wage components.

Else you wanted to run retro forcefully enter date in field Forced retro accounting as of in payroll program then system considers retro even though no master data changes are there but it does not make any sense.

Current period always refers control record of payroll area accordingly it updates in the selection screen of payroll program, Other period depends on our choice both the cases system considers retro calculations if any differences are there in wage components or etc.
