This book starts where SAP's official documentation and training classes end. Addressing issues not covered elsewhere, "Practical SAP US Payroll" provides the technical and in-depth content needed by persons responsible for setting up and configuring a US Payroll system. Since it's important to understand the uniqueness of US Payroll, you'll first learn how to configure the payroll business process. Once configured, you'll learn about schemas and rules--and also about important tax issues--you'll move on to more advanced topics such as overpayments, garnishments, and generating W-2's and 1099's for year-end tax reporting. Step-by-step examples show you how to create custom wage types, process deductions for benefits or garnishments, accruals, tax reporting, and even work your way through the complex topic of processing a retroactive payroll. This book has everything you need to implement a successful payroll system. From the hands-on, step-by-step examples to the detailed wage type tables in the appendix, this is your complete guide to the US Payroll system.
