Use this report to view periodic increment and longevity increase activity during a specified period of time.

Tips: 

This report is set-up to display results if the following criteria is met on an employee’s Basic Pay (0008) infotype record:

  • their pay is indirectly valued,
  • the Pay Adjust Reason is set to Periodic Increment (01) or Longevity (26), and
  • the Pay Scale Type, Pay Scale Area, Pay Scale Group, or Pay Scale Level changed from the previous record.

This report will display the first record of consecutive records where the pay adjust reason is either Longevity (26) or Periodic Increment (01) and the Pay Scale Type, Pay Scale Area, Pay Scale Group, or Pay Scale Level have not changed from the previous record.

  • Example: Employee received a periodic increment increase on 9/1/2012. User copied the 9/1/2012 record to add the next increase date of 9/1/2013 and changed the effective Start date to 12/1/2012 but incorrectly left the pay adjust reason code 01- Periodic Increment.

The 9/1/2012 record would display on the report and the 12/1/2012 record would not be included since there was no change to the employee’s Pay Scale Type, Pay Scale Group, or Pay Scale Level on 12/1/2012.

However, you can adjust the filter to only display one Pay Adjust Reason, such as Longevity increases only.

Example Scenario

Below is an example of running the PID and Longevity Increase Historical Report. It is not a comprehensive list of every scenario.

My agency HR Director has asked for data showing who received longevity increases during the last fiscal year (FY18).

  • On the report selection screen:
    • Period:
      • Other period
      • Period = 7/1/2017 To 6/30/2018.
    • Selection:
      • Employment status ≠ 0 (default value)
      • Business area = 1630
    • Additional data

  • Nineteen employees display in the report results; but upon inspection, only 18 advanced to step M during fiscal year 2018. (Columns removed for easy viewing, data sorted by Start Date):

  • An overview of the employee’s Basic Pay (0008) infotype confirms the employee did not move to step M during the period 7/1/2017 – 6/30/2018:

Sample report results.

  • When displaying the record from the report results, with a 10/1/2017 start date, we see that the Reason field was incorrectly entered as Longevity (26), when the employee did not receive a longevity increase on this date.

  • The Periodic Increment and Longevity Increase Historical Report is showing this record because it has the Longevity (26) pay adjust reason.
