** 1.”Employee Central Assignment ID External“ from Employee Central to Employee
Central Payroll ?
What is it?

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](https://www.google.co.in/search?q=lorenzo-datasolutions&oq=lorenzo-datasolutions)

**Why is it important? **

Since Employee Central is the system of records for all employee relevant data, 
using Assignment External ID to create personnel numbers ensures that you work with
a unique identifier one single PERNR throughout all integrated systems. [7](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/sap-successfactors-online-training-in-bangalore/)

**Prerequisites ?**

 •Employee Central Payroll is switched on in provisioning
•You use Point to Point
integration•EA HRRXX Support Package 73 is applied to Employee Central Payroll system

**2.Restrict Access to Tile ‘Complete Payroll Task’ ?**

**What is it? ** 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](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/sap-success-factors-training/)

**Why is it important? **

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.

**Prerequisites ?**

 • Employee Central Payroll is switched on in provisioning
 • You use Point to Point
integration

**3.Improvement of defaulting logic for Infotype 0007**

**What is it?**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](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/employee-central-payroll-q3-2019/)

**Why is it important?**

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.

**Prerequisites?**

•Employee Central Payroll is switched on in provisioning
•You use Point to Point
integration•EA HRRXX Support Package 73 is applied to Employee Central Payroll system

**4.Improvement of Payment information replication?
What is it?

As of Q4 2019, improved logic is available that includes/ automates Payment Information
replication scenarios for unpaid employees when the current payroll period is closed.

**Why is it important?**

If an employee is hired in a closed period, this employee might get paid with an
off cycle payroll run.

**Prerequisites?**

• Employee Central Payroll is switched on in provisioning
• You use Point to Point
integration• EA HRRXX Support Package 73 is applied to Employee Central Payroll 
system

**5.Check Tool for Payroll Information: Adopt Quick Fix function?
What is it?

Previously, issues found in Check Tool for Payroll Information > Validations in 
Company System Setting had to be resolved manually. Now, in case of an issue the
administrator can resolve them by using the Quick Fix button.

**Why is it important?**

Avoid the manual fix of issues in the check tool for Payroll Information (Validations
in Company System Setting). These can be fixed using Quick Fix function.

**Prerequisites?**

• Employee Central Payroll is switched on in provisioning
• You use Point to Point
integration

**6.Replication Status Monitor?
What is it?

As of Q4 2019, a new tool is available to search and display the replication status
of employees replicated from Employee Central to Employee Central Payroll. You can
run the tool using transaction HRSFEC_REPL_STATUS. This helps you especially during
the implementation of Employee Central Payroll.

**Why is it important?**

It generates a list of replication status according to your selection criteria. 
You can export this list as a spreadsheet. Fr
om this list, you can directly navigate
to the Application Log (transaction SLG1) to identify errors that occur during the
replication of employee master data and to the Web Service Utilities (transaction
SRTUTIL). In the detailed view of service messages, you can simulate, download and
dis play theresults as a table.

**Prerequisites?**

• Employee Central Payroll is switched on in provisioning
• You use Point to Point
integration• EA HRRXX Support Package 73 is applied to Employee Central Payroll 
system
