Personnel Cost Parameters_measure Dimension

Return to Human Resources Overview

The Personnel Cost Parameters_measure dimension is a flat list of parameters stored in the Personnel Cost Parameters cube. The elements in this list must be identical with the children of Parameters in the Personnel Costs_measure dimension.

The number and names of parameters are arbitrary, but they must not interfere with other measures in the Personnel Costs_measure dimension.

Non-wage labor costs can be calculated in either a linear fashion or a more sophisticated way with exemption and ceiling. In the latter case, three parameter values are combined to support one calculation: in addition to the rate being stored in the parameter having …%, the exemption and ceiling are stored in parameters having the suffix …_LowerLimit and …_UpperLimit.

Example:

Element

Definition

Health Insurance%

Health insurance rate in Wages and Salaries for health insurance calculation

Health Insurance_LowerLimit

Exemption of Wages and Salaries for health insurance calculation

Health Insurance_UpperLimit

Ceiling of Wages and Salaries for health insurance calculation
