Off-Cycle Payroll Issues

[hn1]

Hello All,

We ran off-Cycle payroll in November and faced many issues at the time of normal/regular payroll run for November.

1) Off-Cycle payroll was processed and payments were made on 15th and 18th of November.

2) October Control record was in Exit Mode after normal payroll run for October.

3) When normal payroll was processed on 25th November it processed payroll for 2 periods i.e. off-cycle and regular. Off-cycle payments were processed again and retro ran for those payments. As a result sum of both off-cycle payments was subtracted from gross salary and hence less Net salary resulted.

4)Also In off-cycle payment cases where employees had loans the Loan Wagetypes /LCI and /LLB appeared in off-cycle payment period retro results . No idea why these loan wagetypes are appearing in it. Although these WTs are appearing but they do not cause any inconsistency in regular payroll calculation and loan installment amount is deducted correctly as defined in IT0045.

5) However, In case retro doesn't run for off-cycle payments during normal payroll run then even though No impact of off-cycle payments is seen in regular payroll calculation (i.e. no deduction of off-cycle payment amount from gross) but loans neither show in RT nor installment is deducted. As if the loan record had become inactive.

Please help me understand what could be causing these issues and how can I rectify it. Please help! it's urgent.

It seems you have an untested scenario for your payroll schema when Off Cycle is embeeded in a Regular Payroll run and you are sharing same Wage Type IDs + Need to carry some technical wage types from Off Cycle to Regular payroll on Loans in order to not loose RT results and have balances properly.

Points 3 and 4 should be incorporated accordingly into Off Cycle schema run, so you can avoid this type of problems.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply!

I'm not sure if I understand your answer correctly but Wage types for both Regular and Off-Cycle Payroll are different. No overlapping of wage types or their codes. I'm new to this can you please explain what carrying technical wage types from Off-Cycle payroll to Regular means and how it can be done?

What I want is to run only one period of Regular payroll without off-cycle payroll retro running with it and Loan installment deducting correctly in regular payroll instead of Appearing in off-cycle retro.

Would appreciate any solution.

Thanks!

If it is deduction you can use T51P6, for others is controlled by Infotype V_T582A. Or you can write schema/rule- verifying retro condition

You cannot divorce off cycle from regular payroll as it is driven by dates and if that date is contained in regular cycle, both Off Cycle and Ordinary payroll will be executed by the schema.

Wage Types that are shared are technical /550, /559, /560, etc If not technical I suggest you to review retro behaviour table for your custom wage types.

For moving wage types from LRT (last result table) to current period there are operations that can be used (most commong using AMT, NUM, RTE), review your schema as actually is one of the first things that all payroll schemas had as part of standard.

From your answer it seems that Off-Cycle payroll and Regular payroll aren't separate from each other.

Can you please tell me name of the table from where I can review retro behavior for custom wage types?

Will there be a need to write a code in schema to transfer wage types to current period?

Thanks!
