8. Payroll GB
• IT0002 Personal Details: An additional filed ‘National Insurance (NI) Number’ field has
been added for GB. The given field is used to store NI no for an employee, which is
automatically transferred to IT 0069. The NI no cannot be changed or altered in IT
0069 but has to be updated via IT 0002. There is another UK specific field, which the
standard screen 2044 doesn't show, but screen 2008 (usually used for applicants in
the UK) does. It's the field "sexual orientation", which is stored in Infotype 3346 (same
way as working time directive fields from 0016 are stored in 0280).
• 0016 Contract Elements: It has been amended to store beneficial loans and working
time directive for the employees. The calculation method indicator in beneficial loans
indicate the method of calculation (average or precise calculation method) to be used
while calculating tax benefit that an employee uses on receiving an interest-free or
cheap loan (beneficial loan) from an employer. If the WTD indicator is opted out, it
indicates the employee has agreed to work more than the stipulated 48-hour average
weekly limit. A special note on working time directive fields in IT0016: Whilst they are
displayed in IT0016, they are actually stored in IT0280. Whilst 0280 cannot be
processed directly in PA30/PA20, it is important to know, where you find these fields,
e.g., when creating an ad-hoc query or writing a custom report. The data is in
database table PA0280, not PA0016.

• 0045 Loan: o Two additional fields have been added: Loan category,
MIRAS indicator
– Loan category field is used to specify the kind of loan that the user has
taken, while MIRAS indicator is used to specify whether the loan was
eligible under MIRAS scheme (mortgage interest relief at source) or
not. However, MIRAS scheme was withdrawn post April 6, 2000 and
hence, this indicator needs to be left unchecked

http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=298550016
Tracking Court Order Payments
The report HR-GB: Court Orders Report for
Great Britain (RPLCORG0) also provides a
reference number with each corresponding
court order payment.
The report Preliminary DME program for
wage and salary payments (RPCDTAG0)
reads the court order reference number from
payroll results and updates it in the table
Settlement data from payment
program(REGUH). The financial application
program Payment Medium Great Britain and
Ireland - BACWAY, BACSBOX, EFTS,
EMTS(RFFOGB_T) then reads the value of
court order reference number from table
REGUH and processes it with court order
payments.

Infotype 0088: SMP/SAP/SPP/ShMP/ShPP
Shared Parental Leave: ShPP or

note 2125847 and 2133777
17. Payroll GB
• All employee information relevant to SMP/SAP/SPP/ShPP/ShMP
evaluation needs to be recorded in the Infotype 0088. The Infotype
provides the Payroll component with the information it requires to
evaluate the employee's maternity, adoption or paternity leave data, and
therefore calculate the correct payments during the payroll run. The
Payroll component also uses the information to update the Absence
Calendar.
• All information required by the Payroll component for evaluation is stored
in the following Infotype records:
– SMP/SAP/SPP GB (Infotype 0088)
– SSP/SMP/SAP/SPP Exclusions (Infotype 0086)
– Absences (Infotype 2001)
21. Payroll GB
• Absences (Infotype 2001): National Features Great Britain
– A number of additional features are provided on the Absences (2001)
Infotype for Great Britain and Ireland for OSP/OMP processing using
screen 2008. These are as follows:
• Absence entry check
– The system checks the consistency of the employee's master data and
absence scheme customizing.
– When an absence is entered using the Absences (2001) Infotype, the
following information is available:
• The absence scheme that the employee is in on the first day of the
absence
• The amount of entitlements left on the first day of the absence
• How the absence will be broken down for payment
Absence Processing
22. Payroll GB
• Backdated changes to the Pension Funds (Infotype 0071) record do trigger
retrocalculation.
25. Payroll GB
The main purpose of this record is to provide the payroll and the P11D report Summary of
Taxable Benefits for End-of-Year Reporting Great Britain (RPCP11G0) with information for Class
1A National Insurance contribution (NICs) calculation.
To calculate the car benefit, the system requires the following information:
1. A valid make and model of the car.
2. The CO2 emissions have been maintained for each make and model.
3. Periods for which the car is unavailable for use.
4. Payments made for private use.
The system calculates the car benefit as a percentage of the car price. This percentage is set
according to the level CO2 emissions for the car. The system then makes the appropriate
unavailability and calculates employee contributions.
26. Payroll GB Infotype 0793
I am not sure whether this has been
superseded completely by 0874.
27. Payroll GB
Predetermination PAYE and NIC Adjustment (Infotype 0874)
Definition: This infotype stores the following information: Tax and NIC amount adjustments,
Reason for the adjustment
Use: In case of any discrepancy between the actual tax and NIC amount payable, and the amount
that the system calculates for the employee, you must manually calculate the difference
amount and enter the same here. The system uses the information in this infotype to adjust
the tax amount, and employee and employer NIC contribution amounts.
Structure: In the Predetermination PAYE and NIC Adjus section:
• The NI number is defaulted. Enter the date that falls in the period in which you want to
adjust the amount in the Adjustment Date field. In the Tax Adjustment section: Enter the
adjustment amount, which is the difference between the actual tax amount and the amount
that the system calculates. In Reason for Adjustment section, give a detailed description of
why you are adjusting the amount. In the NIC Adjustment section: Enter the adjustment
amount in the EE NIC Adj. Amount field, which is the difference between the employee’s
actual contribution to NIC amount and the amount that the system calculates. Enter the
adjustment amount in the ER NIC Adj. Amount field, which is the difference between the
employer’s actual contribution to NIC amount and the amount that the system calculates. In
Reason for Adjustment section give a detailed description of why you are adjusting the
amount.
28. Payroll GB
Integration: Predetermination TAX & NIC Adjustment payroll function
(P0874) reads the information in this Infotype to generate the values of
the following adjustment wage types:
– Tax Adjustment wage type (/5TA)
– EE NIC Adjustment wage type (/3N1)
– ER NIC Adjustment wage type (/3N2)
– The National Insurance Great Britain User Adjustments payroll
function (GBNIA) reads the values of these wage types to adjust the
following values:
– Tax paid wage type (/501)
– Employee NIC wage type (/301)
– Employer NIC wage type (/302)
29. Payroll GB
• 0570 Offshore Tax GB
– Stores tax data for resident and non-resident employees working in
the Isle of Man, Jersey, or Guernsey and Alderney.
• 0571 Offshore Social Security GB
– Stores employee's social security details for resident and non-resident
employees working in Jersey or Guernsey and Alderney.
– For Isle of Man, IT 0069 is used to store social security contributions as
it has the same National Insurance System as that of GB.
• 0757 Tax Credit GB : It is used to store employee’s Working Tax Credit
(WTC) details. WTC is payment given by the government to provide
financial help to the employees who are in low-income households,
whether they have children or not. It is non-taxable payment given to the
employees for a specific period and is added to the net pay.

Figure 42: Function RAB
Function RAB – Read Absences
Function RAB imports the absence records from the Absences Infotype (2001) to the internal table
AB for use in payroll.
All absences in the period are read and assigned to work centre (WPBP) split indicators. The
absence valuation rule for the absence is read from the Attendance and Absence Types table
(T554S), and is used to group the different absences in payroll.

Figure 43: Function GPNAB
Function GPNAB – Process OSP and OMP absences
GPNAB is an amended copy of the International Payroll Function XNAB. The international
development for Absence Evaluation processing during payroll (XNAB) was previously
unable to handle Part Day absences and Data Take On issues that implied a GB copy of
XNAB was necessary for Absence Evaluation processing during the GB payroll (GPNAB).
The new developments for XNAB (OSS Note 456768) have taken account of all the GB
requirements. This implies that all the copied code can be removed and GB can return to the
international standard (XNAB).

Figure 44: Function PAB
Function PAB – Process Absences
The internal table AB is processed one record at a time, to determine absence hours

Figure 45: Function GBSXP
Function GBSXP – Process Statutory Absences
Payroll function GBSXP processes all statutory absences in Payroll for Great Britain. It is based
on the principle that all statutory absences are processed in the same way. Where an employee
is eligible to receive Statutory Sick Pay (SSP), Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP), Statutory
Adoption Pay (SAP) or Statutory Paternity Pay (SPP), the processing of these absences is
controlled by payroll function GBSXP.

Figure 46: Function GPENS
Function GPENS - Pension Fund Calculation
This function is necessary when calculating the pension fund contributions to be paid by both employee
and employer in a particular pay period. The processing can be for multiple pension funds.
The function makes use of the Pension Funds Infotype (0071) as well as the cluster tables PENS and IT.
Function P0071 (found in schema GBD0) reads the Pension Infotype, and puts the result in PENS, for later
processing with GPENS.

39. Payroll GB
Function GTAX – Tax Calculation
This function is necessary when calculating the tax to be paid by an employee in a particular pay
period. The function makes use of the Tax Data (0065) Infotype as well as the Tax table (ST) and
gross payroll data (IT). It adds the relevant tax wage types to the IT table after processing. There are 2
possible values for the parameter Par1 for function GTAX: Blank or 'LATE'. The function should be
called in the schema with Par1 set to 'LATE' only for the case that tax calculation needs to be
recovered for a late leaver. An example of this can be found in the schema GRET.
Tax Functions
40. Payroll GB
Function GBNIC – National Insurance Calculation
This function calculates the relevant National Insurance amounts, and fills various payroll cluster
tables, as well as adding NI wage types to the IT table. The specific NI tables that are populated are:-
NIPAY NI-able Pay
NIC NI Contributions for current period
CNIC Cumulated NI Contributions
NIRA NI Refunds/ Arrears
In order to define NI-able pay, using Cumulation class ’31’, the function has to be called with PCR
G302 as parameter 2.

Example A: Company Sickness Absence Rule
“An employee is entitled to three weeks full sick pay after 2 years of service”
An employees entitlement can be based upon their number of years of service (Seniority). The full business rules might look like this:-
Service Entitlement
Up to 6 months No Company Sick Pay (only SSP paid)
6 up to 12 months 1 week Full Sick Pay (100%) (OSP)
12 up to 24 months 2 weeks Full Sick Pay (100%) (OSP)
24+ months 3 weeks Full Sick Pay (100%) (OSP)
Example B: Company Maternity Absence Rule
“An employee is entitled to Company Maternity pay after 1.5 years of service”
In this case, if service is less than 1.5 years, then no Company Maternity pay is paid,
Service Entitlement
Up to 18 months No Company Maternity Pay (only SMP paid)
18+ months 6 wks @ Full Pay (100%) (OMP)
8 wks @ 70% Pay (OMP)
12 wks @ 50% Pay (OMP)
13 wks @ 30% Pay (OMP)

• P6 – If the tax code of one of your employees changes at any time during the tax year, HMRC
will send you this form (as the employer).(RTI)
• P9 – As the employer, HMRC will send a P9 if an employee’s tax code is due to change from
the start of the following tax year. (RTI)
• P9d - This form is used to show the taxable value of expenses and benefits provided to non-
directors who are employed by your business, and have earned less than £8,500 in the year.
• P9X -This guidance explains which tax codes employers must change and how to change
them and which codes to carry forward ready for the new tax year on 6 April.
• P11D – This form shows the taxable value of all expenses and benefits provided to
employees who have earned £8,500 or more during the tax year (and all directors if you run a
limited company). All P11D forms should be submitted to HMRC by 6th July, and you must
provide a copy to all relevant employees.
• P11DB - Report Class 1A National Insurance contributions due on expenses and benefits
Statutory Reporting Forms
47. Payroll GB
• P14 – The P14, an End of year summary showing totals of individuals pay, tax, NIC and any
SAP/SMP/OSPP/ASPP and SSP payments made and recovered during the tax year was also
abolished following the introduction of RTI. Like the P35 and P38A, from 2013/2014 tax year
onwards, there is no requirement for this form
• P35 – To be completed by 19th May each year, the employers’ annual return details how
much income tax and NICs have been deducted for each employee during the course of the
previous tax year. Like the P14 from 2013/2014 tax year onwards, there is no requirement
for this form
• The P38A - an Employers return that detailed Employees who were paid over £100 in total
for the tax year but for whom a deductions working sheet (P11) was not completed or who
were not entered onto form P35, was also abolished following the introduction of RTI. Like
the P14 from 2013/2014 tax year onwards, there is no requirement for this form
• P45 - Issued on termination of employment. It is a summary of tax and NI contributions paid.
It is given to the employee to give to their new employer. Hardcopies of P45 will be issued to
employees, but the submission to HMRC will no longer will be required.
• P46 - Used when a P45 has been lost or not issued. (RTI replaces it)
• P60 – A certificate to be provided to all employees at the end of each tax year, it details the
total income tax and NIC deductions made during the year. You must issue all employees
with a P60 by 31st MayP71
Statutory Reporting
48. Payroll GB
RTI Operational Changes for Employers
• http://www.nicx.co.uk/attachments/File/RTI_Userguide_V11.pdf
• Employers and pension providers send details of all payments made through the
payroll irrespective of the amount of pay or pension.
• Under RTI employers will not have to complete a P46 form and send it to HMRC.
They need to obtain the P46 information from the employee instead and use it to
complete the starter information, which will be sent as part of the RTI payment
submission together with details of the employee's first payment, when the
payroll is run.
• Employers and pension providers will not need to complete an end of year return
(P35 and P14) or P38A supplementary return, as the SAP system tells HMRC about
all payments made each time their payroll is run.
• Hardcopies of P45 will be issued to employees, but the submission to HMRC will
no longer will be required.
• At the end of the tax year employers and pension providers will be expected to:
– indicate on their last payment submission on or before the 5 April that this is the final RTI submission
for the tax year
– provide each employee and pensioner with a form P60
– complete and file any forms P11D and P11D(b) due under the existing PAYE arrangements

RTI Submission in Detail
All employers will be required to send their Real Time Information data to
HMRC every time they make a payment to an employee/pensioner in a
Full Payment Submission (FPS). However, prior to the first RTI FPS
submission, it will be necessary for all employers to synchronize their
employee data with HMRC in an Employer Alignment Submission (EAS).
The National Insurance Number (NINo) will become the primary identifier
for all. Once a month, employers are required to align the data reported
on the FPS files with the amounts paid over to HMRC by sending to HMRC
an Employer Payment Summary file (EPS). The adjustments made to your
PAYE remittance in respect of items such as the reimbursement of
statutory absence payments need to be reported to enable HMRC to
reconcile the amounts returned on your FPS report with the amounts paid
over to the Collector of Taxes

Business practice to submit FPS to HMRC from SAP
There will be a requirement for all employers to review their business
practices and in preparation of HMRC’s strategic solution of sending RTI
data in the same file as the BACS data, it might be prudent to consider this
requirement when introducing RTI.
1. Whenever possible, all payments should be made using BACS as this will
enable HMRC to reconcile the payment made to the employee with the
reported values from the FPS report.
2. Where an employee does not provide bank details, some employers hold
any payments due. Where an employee has no infotype 0009 maintained,
the record will be rejected in the payroll run.
3. The Pre-DME program MUST be processed prior to the RTI submission
being generated as this generates the RTI random value.
4. RTI random value will be stored in the payroll results in table RTI by the
Pre-DME program and is required by the RTI program to create the hash.
5. The new RTI report RPCFPSG0 handles the RTI submission process, but
does no complex Processing

• SAP have provided a new P60 Report: RPCP60G0, Transaction:
PC00_M08_RPCP60G0 in SAP note 1933043. This produces the P60s using
the payroll results from the RTI/RTINI tables in the clusters, not the CRT,
CNIC etc used before. Adopting this should ensure that the FPS for the
final payroll period in the tax year and the P60 have exactly the same
figures. Previously the P60s were produced from the GB Year End Report
(RPCEOYG0) which, though still available, now looks like it has been
superseded for all end of year tasks
Form P60
63. Payroll GB
The program can either send the results to an ALV table
for verification or produce the P60 forms directly.

There is also an option to send the P60 directly
to employees by e-mail provided the e-mail
addresses ( or preference for no electronic
forms in the Electronic Communication
infotype ) have been maintained.

• At the heart of the SAP solution is a new HCM Personnel Administration
Infotype, IT3297 ‘Pensions Reform’. This Infotype stores information
regarding:
• Eligibility, Staging/Postponement, Enrolment, Employee Opt-in, Employee
Opt-Out
• Once an employee is enrolled in PAE scheme, the information in IT 0071 is
stored as normal.
• Filled mostly automatically by the PAE reports, but can also be used to
manipulate the process manually.

• The Infotype has been integrated into SAP
Payroll, and is accessed by trigger programs to
issue various output notifications. When
notifications have been issued, the Infotypes
stores that information. Ultimately, when an
employee is enrolled into the pension
scheme, this is stored on Infotypes IT0071 as
normal.

• Shared parental leave, transferable allowances for couples and the under-
21 national insurance contribution probably being the most prominent
changes.

the Local Government Pension schemes. The first note is to implement the

• Note 2082321 (SP 81/B5) supports the new law that no employee can
have a tax deduction of more than 50% of their pay in the pay period
(this previously only applied to K codes)
• Note 2092992 (SP 81/B5) is a large note that creates functionality to
support the new Abolition of ER NI for EE’s under 21 years of age. It
creates the new Upper Secondary Threshold (UST) and adds checks to SAP
master data screens for Infotype 0069 (NI) as well as checks during payroll
calculation. A program is also delivered that will allow customers to move
employees to the correct new NI categories as of 6th
April 2015. This is
therefore important to run before the first payroll run of the new tax year.
Here is a list with the new NI categories “under specified age”:
• Note 2092226 (SP 81/B5) delivers the new Statutory Adoption Pay
entitlements for Adoption Pay Periods that start on or after 5th
April 2015
• Note 2107928 (SP 83/B7) is a fix note for the NI category changes note

• Note 2112214 (SP 83/B7) is a fix note for the 50% tax deduction note
2082321 above. You must apply this immediately after applying, 2082312,
if your peyroll period are numbered in a ways that the current tax year
counts as 2015 already. Without this note, payroll will stop with the
following error, because it’s trying to apply the April changes already:
• Note 2109001 (SP 83/B7) is the implementation of the new Teachers
CARE pension scheme for April 1st
2015. As well as changes to SAP master
data data and payroll functions, a program is delivered to process the new
monthly file the Teachers Pension (TP) will provide organisations
• Note 2111133 (SP 83/B7) mirrors the above Teachers CARE note 2109001
for the new Civil service CARE pension scheme which comes into effect
also on the 1st
April 2015
• Note 2111416 (SP 83/B7) updated SAP for the new Pension Auto-
enrolment earnings thresholds for 6th
April 2015 and therefore must be
implemented before running a Payroll in SAP that includes an assessment
date on or after 6th
April 2015
