  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5Y589 - Employee has no original pay results for period &1 - &2 (no DM10 codes) ?

    The SAP error message 5Y589 indicates that the system cannot find original pay results for a specified employee for a given period. This typically occurs in the context of payroll processing, where the system expects to find historical payroll data for the employee but cannot locate it. The error message also mentions "no DM10 codes," which refers to the absence of specific payroll results or data management codes that are necessary for processing.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Payroll Results: The employee may not have any payroll results recorded for the specified period. This can happen if the employee was not active during that time or if payroll processing was not completed.
    2. Data Deletion: Payroll results may have been deleted or not archived properly, leading to the absence of records for the specified period.
    3. Incorrect Period: The specified period may be incorrect, either due to a typo or because the employee was not employed during that time.
    4. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the payroll module that prevent the system from retrieving the necessary data.
    5. Integration Issues: If the payroll data is integrated with other systems, there may be issues in data transfer or synchronization.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Employee Status: Verify the employment status of the employee for the specified period. Ensure that the employee was active and that payroll was processed.
    2. Review Payroll Results: Use transaction codes like PC_PAYRESULT or PA03 to check if payroll results exist for the employee for the specified period.
    3. Reprocess Payroll: If payroll was not processed for the employee, you may need to run the payroll process for the relevant period again.
    4. Data Recovery: If payroll results were deleted, check if there are backups or archives from which the data can be restored.
    5. Correct Period: Ensure that the period specified in the error message is correct and corresponds to the employee's active employment period.
    6. Consult Configuration: Review the payroll configuration settings to ensure that everything is set up correctly for the employee's payroll processing.
    7. Check DM10 Codes: Investigate the absence of DM10 codes, which may require checking the payroll schema or rules that govern the generation of these codes.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PA20 (Display HR Master Data), PC00_MXX_CALC (Payroll Calculation), and PC00_MXX_CEDT (Payroll Results).
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for detailed explanations of payroll processing and error handling.
    • Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
