Step-5:-SPRO-SAP Reference IMG-Payroll India- Retirement Benefit- Gratuity-

Check for Gratuity Contribution-TCODE-PE02-INGR

In this activity, you modify the personnel calculation rule for Payroll Accounting to
identify whether gratuity contribution took place.

This rule is used in conjunction with a IF statement. It passes a TRUE or FALSE value
based on which the IF loop is processed.

In the retro scenario certain processing need to happen based on whether the
employee has contributed to gratuity or not.

Page 5 of 8
This rule first reads the amount of the gratuity monthly contribution wage type /3G1
from IT and passes False if amount is greater than zero, otherwise it reads the
amount of the gratuity provisional contribution wage type /3G3 from IT and passes
False if amount is greater than zero and True if otherwise.

Requirements

The wage types used in the rule /3G1 and /3G3 are entries in table T7ING5. Thus if
this table changes, then the rule also will have to be changed.

If entries are added in table T7ING5, then the corresponding wage types for monthly
and provisional contribution should also be added in the Rule.

Maintain Wagetypes to be Passed During Retro Runs-TCODE-
PE02-IN51

This rule is processed only during a retro scenario for employees who had
contributed towards gratuity before and need not contribute as of the retro month.

Thus the contribution which has already happened is brought forward to the period
being processed so that the FI/CO posting is not affected.

The relevant wage types for gratuity contribution are pushed into IT from ORT.
