Special Report Considerations/Features
- Action records in PMIS have been converted to the SAP BEACON action code equivalent for employee actions. Where no equivalent was available for an employee action, a Z# or X# employee action type was generated using the original PMIS action description.
- If one or more completed PCRs exist for an action, the “Processed Date” available object is populated with the date from the most recent processed PCR action. If no completed PCR exists for the action, the Processed Date is populated with the “Changed on” date from the action infotype.
- If you search on one of the optional fields without entering the Organizational Unit AND one of the required dates (Processed Date or Effective Date), the following error will occur.
- Make sure that the Organizational Unit AND one of the date prompts (Processed Date or Effective Date) is entered before proceeding to any of the other prompts.
- When there are multiple salary changing actions with the same Effective Date, the Infotype 0008 change history table is reviewed to determine which salary change went with which action. However, if for some reason the number of actions does not equal the number of IT0008 change records for that same date, then we are unable to determine which action caused which salary changes so the most recent IT0008 salary is shown for all actions on that day. When this scenario happens, the action records will be flagged, and the “Flag” data element (from Available Objects) will show an ‘X’ value to signify this.
