How To Fix 5C225 - Error when changing SI start date for wage type &2 in client &1

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 5C - HR: Messages for Switzerland

• Message number: 225

• Message text: Error when changing SI start date for wage type &2 in client &1

What causes this issue?

When the SI start date of wage type &V2& was postponed to &V3& in
client &V1&, an internal error occurred. One of the records to be
changed could not be found. The cause of the problem could be an
unexpected initial constellation of the wage type's interval limits, or
a program error. The SI start date is the date as of which the Swiss
wage type entries (field MOLGA = '02') in table T512W must contain
coding to enable the new SI to be used. (The entries previously
contained coding to enable the old SI module to be used.) If this
report runs during an upgrade, the postponement is made to 01.01.2002
for customers who implemented the new SI in Release 3.1I before the
upgrade. If this report is started manually using report RPU40AC0, the
postponement is made to the start date of subapplication SV01 in table
T596D. To determine the original SI start date to be postponed to &V3&,
the system searches for a split between 12.31.1997 and 01.01.2002. Both
the entries before and after are then imported and changed.

System Response

The wage type is not converted. This can cause errors in payroll
(reports RPCALCC0 and RPCALCCM) and in evaluations that process payroll
results.

How to fix this error?

<ZH>If you do not use <ZK>Swiss Payroll</> or do not run Swiss Payroll
in client &V1&, you can ignore this message and all other error
messages associated with the program.</>
Otherwise, you must remove the cause of the error and restart the
conversion before your first live payroll or evaluation as follows:
Use the information in note 426423 and the documentation on report
<DS:RE.RPU40BX_CH_SVLGARTS>RPU40BX_CH_SVLGARTS</> to determine whether
you can set up the initial constellation expected by the report in
table T512W yourself. Change the delimitations accordingly. Once you
have checked the date of subapplication SV01 (table T596D), run program
<DS:RE.RPU40AC0>RPU40AC0</> to restart the conversion in client &V1&.
If this is not possible, or if the entries do not appear to be
inconsistent, please contact SAP Support.

Procedure for System Administrators

If you use Swiss Payroll, inform the HR administrator who is
responsible.
