Hello
You have to configure through symbolic account , well when you copy any wage type the whole charecterstics
will go the new wagetype also now you can check the wagetype from which it is created where it is flowing Ex
is it Payable amounts, deductions etc..
Pls check the SPRO you will get easily .
Configure there.
More clarification reply.
<b>Reminder : Points should be given on answers.</b>

It is all depends upon the Rules of a company if they maintained it only in one Suppose SALARY Payable then
it is hard to find that the particular is only for Basic and why the finance person needs to know what is basic??

Hi Nancy,
There are two ways where you can look at the finance posting
1. Using the table V_T52EL_COMP
2. using the IMG path where it will show you where the wage type's postings (symbolic accounts) are assigned
to:
IMG Path (Spro)
E.g,
Payroll->Payroll Australia->Month-End Accruals->Assign Symbolic Accounts for Wage Types
In this table highlight the wagetype you are after and click on the Posting a Wage Type option.
I hope this helps with your query,
Regards
Ranjith Yama

Hi Nancy,
That Means all the wage types have been configured to one Symbolic account. I suggest you need to check
with finance person where they want the earnings for each wage type to be assigned to and need to configure
symbolic accounts accordingly. Generally this is the decision that will be done by finance.
Regards
Ranjith

Hi
Ask the finance person to check the book of account.

Hello Nancy
the table T52EK and the table V_T706K are completely independent.
Please maintain table V_T706K as described in the documentation.
Define assignment of wage type to symbolic account
==================================================
Travel Management allows you to structure the interface to financial
accounting flexibly through a so-called initial account assignment.
Initial account assignment is used for specifying posting accounts and
controls the account side (debit/credits).
For this, the following is assigned to every wage type which you have

specified for individual statements and per-diem amounts in the trip

expense types:
- A validity period,
- A symbolic account Expenses
Note
If the symbolic account Expenses symbolizes a G/L account that is
managed in Accounting as an account without cost element, then you
can set the Without CO receiver indicator for this account. All
travel
expense types that you assign to this symbolic account are
transferred
to Accounting without account assignment objects.
- A symbolic account for offsetting entry
Note
If the symbolic account Offsetting entry symbolizes a customer or
vendor account, a reconciliation account is specified for such
accounts in the general ledger.
- Possibly a 2nd symbolic account Clearing (especially for paid
receipts)
Note
If the symbolic account Clearing stands for a G/L account that is
managed as an account without cost element, you can set the without
CO receiver indicator for this account. All trip expense types that
are assigned to this symbolic account are transferred to Accounting
assigned to this symbolic account are transferred to Accounting
without account assignment objects.
This procedure has the advantage that during a G/L account change,
only the assignment of the symbolic account to the G/L account must be
reset, and therefore the wage types (from Travel Accounting) remain
independent of the G/L accounts in financial accounting.
The symbolic account is defined using a two-place alphanumeric key. A
sign is used before this key and determines how a positive amount is
to be posted to a G/L account. The signs have the following meanings:

Sign Significance
+ positive amount is posted to debits of the G/L account
- positive amount is posted to credits of the G/L account
Note
The assignment of symbolic accounts to the corresponding G/L accounts,
clearing accounts or employee customer/vendor accounts is not
specified until the IMG activity Change symbolic accounts to expense
accounts.
Recommendation
SAP recommends that you set the end date of the validity period for
the assignment of the wage types to the symbolic accounts to the date
12.31.9999, since
- the end date cannot be changed later
- in this way no restrictions are imposed on delimiting
Best regards
