Difference between FI Posting and Payment Posting

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

Can anyone please throw some light on the use of Program "H99_POST_PAYMENT" (Payment Posting Program - PC00_M99_PPM)?

What does this program exactly do? Anyone who can answer me interms of Technical and Business Perspective.

Also how is this program different from Traditional Posting Program (RPCIPE00 / PC00_M99_CIPE)?

All inputs are appreciated.

Thanks,

Janga K.

Program "H99_POST_PAYMENT

Purpose

All payments are posted automatically with this report.

Features

If you have performed posting to Accounting (FI/CO), all open liabilities from Payroll are placed on the relevant liabilities accounts accounts, as well as the payments to employees.

In the standard system, as the payment medium is created for the payments to employees from HR, the system does not mechanically generate the corresponding liabilities accounts. Neither the DME preliminary program (programs RPCDTAx0, or RPCDTCx0 and HxxCDTC0, or RPRDTAx0 ) or the program for creating the data medium (programs RFFO*) perform posting in the FI general ledger. Therefore, if the system in HR generates the payment mediums for payments to employees, you must also perform manual postings in parallel. These manual postings are usually performed with the payment summary. In most cases, there is only one posting containing only a few posting items, that is, one posting item for each bank clearing account and each company code involved.

If, however, the liabilities are distributed according to expenses, more posting items are generated. You can no longer perform posting manually.

Selection

With the report H99_POST_PAYMENT, all payments are evaluated regardless of whether they have been paid or not. All wage types included in table BT and table T52POST_PAYMENT count as payments.

********************************

RPCIPE00

This program is used to post the payroll results to accounting/FI.

All wagetypes which are configured to the respective GL accounts using the symbolic account are simulated and the documents so generated using this reported are then executed thru PCP0 to have the values posted to the General Ledger.

Thanks and Kind Regards
