Miscellaneous As standard, SAP provides 7 processing classes (91 to 97 inclusive), which can be customized to an individual

One of the common errors experienced in payroll when cus tomized wage types are used, is the omission of that
amount from the employee's results. One of the reasons for this may be the setting used for processing class 20
Cumulation and Storage at the end of Gross Part. In the SAP standard calculation rule X023 'Gross Input and Storage'
wage types are either added to the results table, to the input table for further processing, or deleted depending on the
settings made.
Processing class 62 Deduct from Taxable Pay is another processing class which commonly causes errors in an
employee's results. SAP standard rule G030 'Distribute Pension Wage Types' uses the settings on this processing
class to determine how a wage type should affect pre-tax deductions, whether it should reduce them or not.
The SAP standard calculation rule G010 'Determine Valuation Basis' is used to determine if a particular wage type is to
be included in a valuation basis or not. Each wage type can have a total of three valuation bases assigned to it.
Calculation rule G010 is used to determine, according to settings against processing class 1 Assignment to Valuation
Bases, whether specific wage types are to be included in these bases, and therefore, whether they will have as
subsequent effect on other wage types to which those valuation bases have been assigned.
In order to use a particular processing class within a customized calculation rule, the decision VWCTL is used, with the
appropriate processing steps configured for any specifically required options for that processing class:

The setting * is used for all wagetypes with a setting other than those specifically configured in the rule.
