SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 5F - HR F: Error Messages (France)

• Message number: 526

• Message text: Ind. val. FSPEC can not be used to valuate the wage type (T5F42/T5F1K)

What causes this issue?

An error occurred during the indirect valuation of the wage type used
for contracts giving entitlement to a special exemption of
contributions.
Indirect valuation for special contracts is carried out via HR_IV_FSPEC
implementation of the DO_INDIRECT_VALUATION method.
This method uses the HR_FR_PROCESS_CONTRAT_SPECIAL function which is
based on your table T5F1K settings <ZK>'Calculation bases for exemption
of contributions for special contracts? (FR )'</>.

System Response

If the system has not located an entry in table T5F1K, the message
is for information purposes only. This is normal if you do not wish
to valuate the minimum wage in a special case.
If the system is not able to calculate a minimum wage for the contract
in question with the data in table T5F1K, the message is a blocking
anomaly.

How to fix this error?

Check table T5F1K settings in order to define the mode of calculation
of the minimum wage.
