How To Fix 5O804 - Value "&1" &2 expected for personnel no. &3

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 5O - Notifications in the Master Data Area (Austria)

• Message number: 804

• Message text: Value "&1" &2 expected for personnel no. &3

What causes this issue?

You have not entered a value in the <DS:DE.KENN1>Indicator for
Subsequent Illness</> field. To enable the system to process this
absence correctly for an Austrian personnel number, you probably need to
make an entry here.
If a link ID is incorrect or missing, the system is unable to correctly
determine the continued pay entitlements of employees in Austrian
payroll.

How to fix this error?

Check the information and, in some cases, assign a link ID to this field
in order to establish a relationship with the causal absence for the
purposes of continued pay. The current absence must display the same
link ID as the causal absence.
In most cases, the absence category of the causal absence differs from
the absence category of the subsequent absence. Therefore, you may still
have to enter the link ID in the causal absence.

How can this happen?

An employee had an occupational accident. Consequently, you created an
absence record with the link ID <ZH>01</>.
If the employee is absent again (for example, as a result of a
subsequent illness in accordance with the Salaried Employees Act) and
this absence has a causal relationship with the occupational accident
and is to be included in the same continued pay quota as the
occupational accident, assign the same link ID <ZH>(01)</> to the latter
absence.
