  The SAP error message 5M351 ("Person rejected: export only possible after gross run") typically occurs in the context of payroll processing within the SAP system. This error indicates that an attempt is being made to export payroll results for an employee before the gross payroll run has been completed. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Incomplete Payroll Processing: The error arises when the payroll for the employee has not been finalized. The gross payroll run must be completed before any export of payroll results can occur.
  Incorrect Sequence of Operations: The export operation is being attempted before the necessary payroll calculations have been performed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Complete the Gross Payroll Run:
  
  Ensure that the gross payroll run for the relevant period has been executed successfully. This is typically done through the transaction code PC00_MXX_CALC (where MXX is the country-specific payroll driver).
  Check the payroll log for any errors or issues that may have occurred during the gross payroll run.
  
  
  
  Verify Payroll Status:
  
  Use transaction PA03 to check the payroll status of the employee. Ensure that the payroll has been processed and is in a status that allows for export.
  If the payroll run was not executed, you will need to run it for the relevant period.
  
  
  
  Check for Errors in Previous Runs:
  
  If the gross payroll run was executed but still results in this error, check for any errors in the payroll processing logs that might indicate why the export is being rejected.
  
  
  
  Re-run Payroll if Necessary:
  
  If there were issues during the gross payroll run, you may need to correct those issues and re-run the payroll for the affected employees.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific details related to your configuration and any additional steps that may be required.

  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user attempting the export has the necessary authorizations to perform payroll processing and exports.
