Maintaining Payment Model in EC to ECP

[former_member742472]

Looking for solution to enter payment in EC process via replication to ECP. This is set-up with monthly frequency in EC. Is there a way to also add payment model in EC to process the first paydate of each month? We can configure it to add automatically in ECP but requires the entry to be made directly in ECP vs EC to ECP via replication which is the desired flow without requiring manual entry in ECP.

Hi Crystal,

There is no standard offering from SAP to assign the payment model in EC. This can be done only in ECP directly in IT0014 at the moment after the wage type is replicated.

Having said that, the other option to explore is to create a custom field "Payment model" and maintain only for those wage types directed to IT0014 in compensation information. Keep this as non-mandatory field and maintain those picklist values XXXX for selection.

Now map the custom field through field level extensibility in PTP mapping to P0014-MODEL, if that works it's great, otherwise, you can surely enhance the mapping of model from EC to ECP through Badi extensibility.

Let me know how you go.

BR,
Trinath.

You'll have to use the BAdI for P0014 to read the payment model using FM "HR_MODEL_PROPOSE".  If this FM returns a payment model, you'll then need to clear the following fields on P0014 as they can't be used along with a payment model as it's one or the other:  ZDATE, ZFPER, ZANZL and ZEINZ.

I assume Payment model is a set of dates used in Payroll to make scheduled payments. This is not per employee's master data. This is config data. You can explore the reverse option i.e ECP to EC (instead of EC to ECP). A similar blog for replicating cost center from ECP to EC is attached for your thought process:

Hi, the issue is we need to make the entry in EC and the logic to add it in ECP via configuration only seems to work is if the initial wage type entry is entered in ECP. So my ask, is there configuration in EC to allow for payment model to be applied at the point of entry in EC?
