Understanding following Payroll Operations which are most frequently used. Will be helpful in understanding and
writing personnel calculation rules (PCR).

S.No Operation Description Use
1 ADDCU Collect in
Cumulative
Wage Types
By reading table T512W, Wage Type Valuation, operation ADDCU
determines the following parameters for the current wage type:
1. In which of the 96 cumulation wage types the amount of the
current wage type should be included 2. In which of the 32 mean
values the amount and/or number and/or rate of the current wage
type should be included, and with which Percentage.
2 ADDWT Add Wage
Type to
Subsequent
Wage Type
The wage type affected is transferred to an internal table according
to parameter 5.
Input Wage types that are in the header of the input table OT (= work
field)
When processing is performed are the input values of this operation.
3 SUBWT Subtract Wage
Type to Form
Subsequent
Wage Type
The wage type in question is passed on as a negative value to an
internal table.
4 ADDWS Add Wage
Type to
Subsequent
Wage Type
and Fill Out
V0
The wage type affected is transferred to an internal table.
5 DIVID Divide This operation divides two fields in the current entry and places the
result in a third field.
6 MULTI Multiply This operation multiplies two fields of the current entry of table OT
and stores the result in a third field.
7 AMT Calculations
in the Current
Amount Field
Changing or call up values in the AMT field.
8 NUM Calculations
in the Current
Number Field
Changing or reading values in the NUM field.
9 RTE Calculations
in the Current
Rate Field
Changing or reading the value of the RTE field.
10 CMPER Comparison
of Payroll
Periods
Operation CMPER is a decision operation. You must therefore specify
D as the rule type. CMPER compares two period specifications
in three different variants. The periods used in the comparison are
the in-period and for-period of the current payroll run.
As a result of the comparison, one of two signs '<', '>' or '=' is entered
in the variable key. The operation CMPER is only advisable for regular

payroll runs, not special runs.
11 ELIMI Eliminate
Period
Indicators
This operation removes the period indicators (split indicators) for
the wage type in the current work entry. This prepares the way for
combining the values stored in WTs which up to this point were
distinct.
12 RESET Set Original
Time Period
Indicator
The RESET operation sets the time period indicators (split indicators).
13 SPLIT Split Indicator
Query
The SPLIT operation performs a query on the split indicator of the
wage type currently being processed.
14 SETIN Setting a
Wage Type
Split
Operation SETIN sets a wage type split for the current wage type.
15 WPALL Check/Set
Work Centre
and Basic Pay
Split
The WPALL operation checks or sets the work centre/basic pay split
APZNR of the wage type that has just been processed. This split
indicator highlights an entry in the WPBP table. FRST LAST

16 ERROR Warning in
the event of
incorrect
entries
Marks the source of errors within decision trees and terminates
processing.
17 GCY Continue
Processing
with PCR (Go
To Cycle)
Branching to sub rules, no return.
18 PCY Run PCR
(Perform
Cycle)
Accesses sub rules and returns.
19 VALEN Set Length of
Variable Key
Sets the length of the variable key to the value specified as the parameter.
20 VAOFF Set Offset for
Variable Key
The offset for the variable key is set to the value specified as the
parameter.
21 NEXTR Processing a
Continuation
Rule
This operation indicates that at least one more rule must be interpreted to
complete the processing of the rule.
22 VAKEY Place in
variable key
Operation VAKEY places the field specified as a parameter, from a record
being read, into the variable key.
23 OPIND Evaluate
Operation
Indicator
This operation evaluates the operation indicator OPKEN of the wage type.
24 OUTWP Load Work
Centre and
Basic Pay
Data
The OUTWP operation loads the currently valid work centre and basic pay
data. If you use the operation OUTWP in an evaluation schema, you can
only query the fields that are part of the payroll results (generally as an
entry in table WPBP). It is not permissible to query values from infotypes
within the framework of evaluation schemas, since you must be able to
repeat evaluation runs in retroactive accounting or for revision purposes
and thus they cannot be based on information that can be changed.
25 PRINT Print Out the
Current Work
Table Entry
To print the current header of the specified table and the IT or a Variable.
26 RETRO Retroactive
Accounting
or
Recalculation
Operation RETRO checks if the payroll run is a retroactive accounting Run.
27 ROUND Rounding Off The ROUND operation rounds off field values in the current wage type.

28 TABLE Prepare
Access to
Table Fields
This operation is a tool allowing you to access any fields in ATAB tables or
internal tables that are used in Payroll.
29 VARGB Place Table
Field in
Variable Key
The VARGB operation enters any field in the variable key from the table
determined by operation Operation TABLE.
30 VWTCL Set
Processing
Class Value
Operation VWTCL VV reads the specification of processing class VV for the
current wage type in table T512W, and enters this as a single-character
entry in the variable argument of the pcr. Function VWTCL is a decision
operation.
31 WGTYP Set Wage
Type
The WGTYP operation moves the current wage type into the variable key
or changes the wage type designation of the current wage type.
32 ZERO= Initializing
the Current
Working
Fields
Operation ZERO= initializes fields in the current header entry of a table or
variable.
33 XMES Output of
messages to
payroll log
Using the operation XMES you can ensure that the system issues a message
in the payroll log during the payroll run.
34 PPPAR Provide
Partial
Period
Parameters
Operation PPPAR is a decision operation. It writes IDs to the variable key
when partial period factors are calculated.

35 LRTST Evaluate the
Status of the
LRT Table
The LRTST operation evaluates the status of internal table LRT (Last Result
Table) and controls further processing.
36 FILLF Fill the
following
fields
In the current work entry the fields specified are restored from the basic
entry in the input table.
37 MODIF Set
Employee
Grouping
This operation sets the employee grouping for use in accessing tables for
Payroll.
38 PAYTP Set
Employee
Subgroup
Grouping for
Personnel
Calculation
Rule
This operation sets the employee subgroup grouping for personnel
calculation rules regardless of its current value. After processing the rule
line, it then reads the payroll rules table, T52C5 (transaction PE02) and the
variable key and subsequent line number are deleted. You can also set the
wage type to generic, i.e. to '****'.
The operation requires rule type 'Z'.
Operation PAYTP sets the employee subgroup grouping for personnel
calculation rules to '*'. This might be used to specify the same processing
forms for different employee subgroup groupings for personnel calculation
rules only once by entering '*' under the employee subgroup grouping for
personnel calculation rules. Payroll rules are then accessed by generalizing
the employee subgroup grouping for personnel calculation rules.
39 SCOND Set Validity
of Condition
Operation SCOND sets conditions for functions in Payroll.
40 PSPRN Off-Cycle
Payroll
The operation PSPRN is a decision operation. It checks if the current payroll
is dealing with off-cycle payroll or a regular payroll run. The result of the
comparison is written in the variable key.
41 ADDNA Collect
Number and
Processing of the current work entry is (almost) the same as for operation
ADDWT. Field RTE (amount per unit) is used once only however: in other

words, it is not cumulated. The NUM (number) and AMT (amount) fields are
cumulated.
42 CPAGE Compare
Employee's
Age with
Specified
Number
Operation CPAGE compares the age of an employee or a family member
with a specified number. You can use this, for example, to determine age-
dependent bonus payments.
43 EVLCL Use
Specification
of
Evaluation
Class nn
Operation EVLCL nn (nn = a number between 01 and 10) places the 2-
characters indicator stored in the nnth position of the evaluation class string
in the variable key once the current wage type has been read in the Wage
Type Valuation table, T512W.
44 WPBPC Distribute
Lump Sum
Wage
Elements to
WPBP
Periods
Operation WPBPC distributes the amount of the current wage type to the
active WPBP periods in the payroll period.
45 STATU Enter Status
Field in
Variable Key
The STATU operation enters one of the status fields from infotype P0000
(Events) in the variable key.
46 SUBRC Set & Query
a Return
Code
The SUBRC operation evaluates the return code of the import of a payroll
result, or sets an internal return code which in turn is evaluated.

47 VALBS Evaluating
Valuation Bases
The operation VALBS evaluates the Customizing for the evaluation of
time wage types from table T512W (Wage Type Evaluation) for the
current wage type. These Customizing settings are made in view
V_512W_B (Valuation Bases: Detail). For every wage type, Customizing
consists of 3 blocks that are represented as lines in view V_512W_B.
1. A block for the current wage type (line "0" in the view
V_512W_B)
2. A block for the first wage type derived from the current wage
type (first line)
3. A block for the second wage type derived from the current wage
type (second line)
A valuation basis, a statement wage type, and a percentage can be
stored in every block/every line. If you use the syntax VALBSv yz, the
current wage type is valuated with the valuation basis from the block or
line that you specify in parameter v. Operation VALBS places the
valuation basis in the RTE field (Rate) of the current wage type and then
multiply RTE field by the Num field.
48 RE510 Read Pay Scale
Table (T510)
Operation RE510 prepares the reading of entries from the Pay Scale
Groups table (T510).
49 R51P6 Read in Table
T51P6---
>Characteristics
of Arrears
deduction wage
types
Operation R51P6 reads an entry from table T51P6. This table determines
the characteristics of the deduction wage types.
50 R51P1 Read Table
T51P1 -----
>advance &
balances wage
type assignment
Operation R51P1 reads an entry from table T51P1. In this table, a link
between wage types is created for various indicators.
51 MESSG Massage Output Operation MESSG outputs a message containing the personnel number.

52 BTREC Set Recipient
Data for Bank
Transfers
Operation BTREC must be run after bank transfer data has been read
from an infotype. Data on wage type and amount are transferred from
the current fields (OT) and retained in the transfer table together with
data on the recipient of the record last read.
53 BREAK Setting a Break-
Point
The BREAK operation interrupts the processing of rules and branches
into the debugging mode.
54 IMPRE Import from
database PCL2
Operation IMPRE imports the interim and end results from database
PCL2 and stores them ready for processing. You can use this operation
to import payroll results from cluster Rx (x = country indicator, for
example D for Germany) for the current personnel number. You can also
use function IMPRT. Depending on the parameters, the data is supplied
in a second record of tables. In this way, you have the option of
processing or comparing old and new results, or creating differences and
so on.
55 PRATE Factor Amount The PRATE operation reduces the current amount of the wage type in
the OT table (results table) according to calendar days.
In the Recurring Payments/Deductions (0014) infotype, create recurring
payments and deductions using a wage type. You can choose the validity
period so that the infotype record is only partly in the current payroll
period. In this case the wage type is taken into account as normal with
its full amount, and is not factored. You can perform factoring for this
wage type using the PRATE operation.
