• Message number: 176

• Message text: No wage type exists for disruptive event compensation: &1

What causes this issue?

A DEUEV notification with issue reason 55 (Use of value credit not in
accordance with the agreement) is to be created. However, none of the
following wage types exist for the level of the disruptive event
compensation in the payroll results of the period &v1&:
/32S Disrupt. Event Comp. West
/32T Disrupt. Event Comp. East
/33S Disr. Ev. Comp. Ind. West
/33T Disr. Ev. Comp. Ind. East
Therefore, the remuneration liable for accident insurance cannot be
determined for the data module DBUV.

System Response

The notification is set to status <LS>With Errors</> and cannot be
transmitted.

How to fix this error?

This is probably an older payroll result that was created before the
above-mentioned wage types were delivered.
Start the report RPCSVWD0 (Calculation of Disruptive Event SI Deficit
for Flexible Working Time) with rounding up as of &v1& so that the level
of the disruptive event compensation is entered in infotype 0124. Then
calculate the personnel number back to &v1&. In this way, the missing
wage type is created in the payroll result.
Then restart the creation of the notification.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
