System Response

The system has identified a possible error with the combination of the
values in the <LS>Partner income</> and <LS>Marital status </>fields,
which results in a warning message.
The system determines the applicable tax scale for an employee with
reference to his/her marital status and with reference to his/her (ex)
partner's income, as follows:
During the fiscal year of the factual divorce (year X), the value <ZK>6
Factual Divorced</> of the <ZH>Marital status</> (P0101-BVFAM) field can
be combined with all possible values of the <ZH>Partner income</>
(P0101-BVEKI) field, with exeption of the value <ZK>' ' Not relevant</>.
This means that the tax scale will depend of the partner's income and
there will be NO tax reduction (constant <ZK>Tax reduction EEsingle
,</>T511P-ST008).
In the year after an emplyoee's factual divorce (year X+1), the value
<ZK>6 Factual divorced</> in the <ZH>Marital status</> (P0101-BVFAM)
field can only be combined with the value <ZK>' ' Not relevant</> in the
<ZH>Partner income</> (P0101-BVEKI) field. This means that the tax scale
is always <ZH>Tax Scale I</> and a tax reduction (constant <ZK>Tax
reduction EEsingle,</>T511P-ST008) is applied .
<ZH>Note</>: The employee's marital status must be always up-to-date. If
an employee gets divorced, then the factual divorce must be specified in
the <LS>Marital status</> field from its starting date (year X).

How to fix this error?

You need to check the data specified for the <LS>Partner income</> and
<LS>Marital status</> fields.
If necessary, delimit the <ZK>Fiscal data (B)</> (<ZH>0101</>) infotype
record for the fiscal year after the factual divorce.
