• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5G335 - If P45 details are entered, Tax code Source should be P45 ?

  The SAP error message 5G335, which states "If P45 details are entered, Tax code Source should be P45," typically occurs in the context of payroll processing in the UK, particularly when dealing with employee tax information.
  Cause:
  This error arises when there is a mismatch between the tax code source and the P45 details entered for an employee. Specifically, if you have entered P45 details (which are used to report an employee's tax information from a previous employer), the system expects the tax code source to also be set to "P45." If the tax code source is set to something else (like "Emergency" or "BR"), the system will trigger this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Check the Tax Code Source: Go to the employee's payroll information and verify the tax code source. If P45 details are entered, ensure that the tax code source is set to "P45."
  
  
  Update the Tax Code Source: If the tax code source is incorrect, change it to "P45" to match the entered P45 details.
  
  
  Review P45 Details: Ensure that the P45 details entered are correct and complete. This includes checking the tax code, tax period, and any other relevant information.
  
  
  Reprocess Payroll: After making the necessary changes, reprocess the payroll to see if the error persists.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  P45 Form: A P45 is a document issued by an employer when an employee leaves a job. It contains details about the employee's tax code, earnings, and tax paid up to the point of leaving.

  SAP Payroll Configuration: Ensure that your SAP payroll configuration is set up correctly to handle P45 details and tax code sources. This may involve consulting with your SAP HR or payroll administrator.
