Basic Pay - Add Additional Pay by Percent
Use this procedure to enter percentage-based additional pay (such as assignment pay, specialty pay, recruitment/retention pay, etc. ) into the Basic Pay (0008) infotype for an employee authorized to receive the additional pay added to their base pay.
Use the HRMS Data Definitions Resource Guide or the Wage Type Report (ZHR_RPTPY004) to determine if the additional pay wage type is percentage-based.
Be sure to communicate with your payroll processor before entering retroactive changes to an employee's Basic Pay (0008) infotype record.
Refer to the State HR Compensation Administration web page for information on additional pay, such as Assignment Pay and Shift Premium.
