• Message number: 469

• Message text: UI=1 cannot be used for previously unemployed period older than 55 years

What causes this issue?

You entered UI key 1 for an employee. This means the employer and
employee must each pay half of the contribution to unemployment
insurance.
However, infotype records for which UI key 9 is entered also exist.
Therefore, sec. 421k SGB III is applicable to this person.
According to sec. 421k SGB III, the employer is exempt from paying
contributions if it previously hired an unemployed person over the age
of 55 and the employment relationship began before January 1, 2008.
Therefore, the UI key cannot be changed from 9 to 1 during the
employment relationship.

How to fix this error?

Enter UI key 2 or 9 for the employee.
