With this feature, you can use the Assignment ID External from Employee Information in Employee Central to create a unique personnel number (PERNR) for replication purposes. Please note: Employments in Employee Central need to represent a Personnel Number in Employee Central Payroll. 6

Administrators can define target population criteria to restrict access to Complete Payroll Tasks tile based on user group. So the Administrator can see payroll tasks only for a specific group of employees (by legal entity). To control the access, go to Admin Center > Manage Permission Roles. 8
As there are many different events now supported in the ‘Complete Payroll Task’ you may want to restrict who can work on the list/tasks.

As of Q4 2019, you can activate switch WKWDY to enable errors to be raised if you leave working days per week empty in Employee Central and no Planned Working Time (0007) infotype is created during the replication. If you do not activate switch WKWDY,errors are not raised. 9
Customers want to avoid that a missing IT0007 Planned Working Time is only detected in the payroll run. An error should already been raised during the replication of the Employee Master Data. Therefore we added a new switch to enable messages to be raised for the empty Working Days per Week replication scenario.
