The SAP error message 5G852: No entry in table AB for absence day & typically occurs when the system is unable to find a corresponding entry in the Absence (AB) table for a specific absence day. This can happen for various reasons, such as missing configuration, incorrect absence type, or issues with the employee's absence records.

- Absence Quota Issues: The employee may not have sufficient absence quota available for the requested absence type.
Solutions:
- Check Configuration: Verify that the absence type is correctly configured in the system. This includes checking the relevant infotypes and ensuring that the absence type is active.

- Correct Data Entry: Review the absence record for any data entry errors. Ensure that the dates and absence types are entered correctly.
- Validate Employee Master Data: Check the employee's master data for completeness and correctness. Ensure that all necessary infotypes are filled out properly.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
