What
It Is Used For
The Labor Distribution System (LDS)
is an MIT-specific application that interfaces with
MIT's payroll system and SAP to provide a consistent
planning tool for MIT departments, labs, and centers.
LDS enables users to track actual Payroll salary and
related expenses as well as to forecast salary expenses.
The LDS program ensures accuracy with a detailed variance
process that highlights discrepancies between departmental
projections and actual payroll payments (actuals). LDS
also simplifies projection of complex salary distribution
by automatically calculating both the unloaded and loaded
salary expenses. In addition, LDS includes a variety
of reports.
