German to English Bus/Financial Accounting Salary slip
This appears in a group of acronyms on a German salary slip. The full list of acronyms is XT, CFS, NG, BEA, EM, HC. Underneath is written Tarifgr./Stufe MGR. Thanks!

More context..? I don't suppose you know what software produced the slip, do you? Or the company that issued the slip?
Alternatively, what are the numbers (or whatever else) that follow these abbreviations? The size of these would at least give a clue.
Even the formatting might help...
How have you translated the other abbreviations?
philgoddard Feb 13, 2013:
CFS and HC also don't look like German abbreviations. But what does it say after each one?
Stuart Whittingham (X) Feb 12, 2013:
Company-specific terms? Could these abbreviations simply be names of departments / cost centres etc? used by the company concerned?
Coqueiro Feb 12, 2013:
XT doesn't seem to be the abbrevation of a german term.
Johanna Timm, PhD Feb 12, 2013:
"salary slip" Can you give us the German source term, please? Gehaltsabrechnung, Lohn- und Verdienstbescheinigung, Lohnzettel,...?

Thanks
