Non-discretionary bonus in payroll
log: Payroll function RGRTE
▪ Parameter NDB is available for Payroll
Function RGRTE and should be called
after P0015 and P0267
▪ When the period with the non-
discretionary bonus is executed, RGRTE
uses the bonus reference start and end
dates to identify all periods and
weeks that require FLSA overtime
reevaluation
FLSA Overtime Valuation Enhancement - Example
11PUBLIC© 2020 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. ǀ
Payroll function RGRTE log: Bonus
rate for proration
▪ Payroll periods 1 (01.01.2020 - 01.15.2020)
and 2 (01.16.2020 - 01.31.2020) and all
their weeks were considered as relevant to
be reevaluated.
▪ The bonus amount should be prorated for
the FLSA Overtime calculation. This is done
by finding the bonus rate for proration:
divide the bonus amount by the total hours
from all relevant weeks (the hours can be
configured on view V_T596J_US_NDB)
FLSA Overtime Valuation Enhancement - Example
12PUBLIC© 2020 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. ǀ
Payroll function RGRTE log:
Adjustment rate calculation per period
▪ Using the bonus rate for proration, it is
possible to define the amount of bonus per
period
▪ This amount is then added to the FLSA
Overtime calculation rules, to calculate a
new adjustment rate
▪ The same calculation is performed for all
relevant weeks

Payroll function RGRTE log: Wage types re-evaluation
• The differences between the original amount and the amount recalculated with the non-

◼ SAP delivered more than 330 PDF-based forms in Tax Reporter. It is highly likely that the
formatting you are trying to introduce already exists in one of those forms.
◼ Tax Reporter PDF-based forms contains a lot of scripting and many form-level exits, as well as
special fields.
◼ After you create a new form, make sure you test it extensively using the testing tool in
transaction SFP. Unless you are satisfied with the test results, do not execute the new form in
production mode.
TIPS – for PDF Based forms
42PUBLIC© 2020 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. ǀ
◼ Testing should include actual printing of the new form to ensure that it fulfills the formatting
needs of your enterprise, as well as your tax authority.
◼ If you encounter the error message “Error in generating the PDF form: <Form name>”
within the Tax Reporter Log, contact your Basis team to check your ADS connection.
TIPS – for PDF Based forms
43PUBLIC© 2020 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. ǀ
Using one Adobe Document Services (ADS) installation from several systems:
▪ To optimize the use of your system landscape, it is possible to connect several ABAP-based
SAP systems to one SAP NetWeaver® AS Java running the ADS for the generation of the
Interactive Forms output formats. In general, this setup is suitable for the use of Interactive Forms
in interactive scenarios, or in printing scenarios where slower performance is acceptable.
▪ To take full advantage of the performance improvements for high-volume printing shipped via
SAP NetWeaver, you require a remote ADS for each system from which you want to realize a high-
volume printing scenario. This precludes the possibility of using one ADS for several systems.
▪ For all scenarios using one ADS installation for several systems, ensure that the Java system
and the corresponding ADS are at least on the same Support Package Stack level.
