• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5Q448 - Wage type &1 is added to pension (&2) AND notional gross SI (&3) ?

  The SAP error message 5Q448 indicates that a specific wage type is being added to both the pension and notional gross social insurance (SI) calculations, which is not allowed. This situation typically arises in the context of payroll processing, where certain wage types should not be included in multiple calculations simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Wage Type Configuration: The wage type in question (&1) is configured in such a way that it is being included in both the pension calculation (&2) and the notional gross SI calculation (&3). This can happen due to incorrect configuration in the wage type settings or payroll schema.
  Payroll Schema Logic: The payroll schema may have logic that incorrectly processes the wage type, leading to it being counted in both areas.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be errors in the data entry or master data that lead to the wage type being incorrectly assigned to both pension and notional gross SI.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Wage Type Configuration: Check the configuration of the wage type in the SAP system. Ensure that it is not set to be included in both pension and notional gross SI calculations. This can be done in the wage type characteristics (transaction code: PE03).
  Adjust Payroll Schema: If the payroll schema is causing the issue, you may need to adjust the logic to ensure that the wage type is only included in one calculation. This may require the assistance of a payroll consultant or someone with expertise in SAP payroll configuration.
  Check Master Data: Review the employee master data to ensure that the wage type is correctly assigned and that there are no conflicting entries that could lead to this error.
  Testing: After making changes, run a test payroll to ensure that the error does not occur again and that the calculations are correct.
