reliquidation - Details

  • Term: Reliquidation

    Component: PY-CL Chile

    Definition: Reliquidation in SAP Payroll for Chile refers to the process of recalculating and correcting previously processed payroll results, typically to adjust tax withholdings, social security contributions, or other statutory deductions after an initial payroll run has been completed. It ensures that any changes in employee data, legal parameters, or corrections are accurately reflected in the payroll results.

    How It’s Used: In real SAP projects, reliquidation is used when errors or updates are identified after payroll has been posted—for example, if an employee's tax status changes, or if there was an incorrect deduction applied. The payroll administrator runs the reliquidation process to recalculate the affected payroll periods without reprocessing the entire payroll, thus updating the payroll results and ensuring compliance with Chilean labor and tax laws.

    Important Configuration:

    • Ensure the payroll schema and PCRs (Personnel Calculation Rules) support reliquidation logic specific to Chilean payroll.
    • Use T-code PU03 (Payroll Driver) with the appropriate variant to trigger reliquidation for specific periods or employees.
    • Maintain relevant infotypes (e.g., IT0008, IT0014) with correct retroactive accounting settings to allow recalculation.
    • Configure retroactive accounting periods in T-code OH11 to define how far back reliquidation can be performed.
    • Verify that the legal changes and tax tables are up to date via SAP Notes and support packages for Chile payroll.
