We have more than 70 countries in our SAP system and more coming to be rolled out. We mainly use the HR funtionality for time recording. So, for the configuration of personnel subarea groupings in Time Recording we used the country grouping: e.g. Singapore Molga = 25, MOABW = 25, MOVER = 25, etc. For the 'SAP-countries (countries for which SAP has a template) we use MOLGA as personnel subarea grouping, for the NON-SAP countries (countries for which SAP has no template) we use a 2 digit number downwards from 98. Now we are running out of 'numbers'.
Has anybody similar problems and can you please share with me possible solutions?
Thank you very much and looking forward to your replies,
Doris
Dear Doris,
Several other possibilities exist for the grouping (not only PSG),
for example :
A) the "Employee subgroup grouping for time quotas" (ESG)
which is a char1 field (so you can use many more then the ones you
use at the moment)
B) field "Quota type selection group" (Quomo), from the documentation
of this field in V_T559L:
"Quota type selection rule group
You can use the quota type selection rule group to control absence
quota type selection based on the employee's organizational assignment.
Using different quota type selection rule groups, you can set specific
rules for quota generation.
Use
Quota generation is carried out in the schema using function QUOTA.
There are three ways of setting the quota type selection rule group:
1. Using function MOD in the time evaluation schema
Function MOD calls a personnel calculation rule that has been modified
to suit the respective schema (for example, XMOD, MODT, or TMOD). The
employee subgroup grouping for personnel calculation rules is queried
in the rule using operation PAYTP. Using operation MODIF Q=xx,
you can determine (for ach grouping) which quota type selection rule
group shoulde be used in time evaluation to access the entries
for the relevant employees in the Leave Accrual table.
2. Using a personnel calculation rule you have written yourself in the
time evaluation schema
In this case, you also set the quota type selection rule group using
operation MODIF Q=xx.
3. Using feature QUOMO
You can use the feature to set the quota type selection rule group based
on other organizational assignments. It is queried by the system during
time evaluation."
As your main issue seems to be the use of several different quota
requirements, you can define, via the use of field QUOMO in V_T559L,
for quota type 10 (just as an example) several different generation
rules (one for each Quomo).
Please note that quota 10 does not need to be always generated in the
same way, it can have a different generation rule for each key
combination of V_T559L.
The most flexible way to select which quomo should be used is via the
feature QUOMO. There you will have the following decision fields
BUKRS Company Code
WERKS Personnel Area
BTRTL Personnel Subarea
PERSG Employee Group
PERSK Employee Subgroup
MOLGA Country Grouping
MOURA Personnel Subarea Grouping for Leave Types
TRFAR Pay scale type
TRFGB Pay Scale Area
TRFGR Pay Scale Group
TRFST Pay Scale Level
SCHKZ Work Schedule Rule
PERNR Personnel Number
ANSVH Work Contract
CTTYP Contract type
Hope this helps,

Hi,
have you checked with SAP that using MOLGA - numbers other than '99', will not be a major issue in the future.
If SAP is going to support for additional countries in the future, SAP will need to 'create' a MOLGA for the country as well, which (during an upgrade) might overwrite the 'custom' MOLGA - codes which your organization has created.
For all non-supported countries, I would use MOLGA '99', which standard SAP MOLGA - code for 'Other countries'.
If you want to add 'country' - specific guidelins for time (as mentioned in the previous post) you can use Personnel Area which is most of your features.
Wilfred.
Hi Doris,
This is how you can try to address this issue:
1. Try to create clusters of countries with similar time requirements, define one grouping for them.
2. When create new abcence/attendance type put country ISO code into description, i.e. UA for United Arab Emirates, SA for Saudi Arabia etc.
Cheers!
