How To Fix 5Z223 - Pension equalization payment for pension holder is not taken into account

5Z223 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 5Z - IS-HR/PSG Public Sector Payroll - Germany

• Message number: 223

• Message text: Pension equalization payment for pension holder is not taken into account

What causes this issue?

You have entered a key in the 'Spec. calculation ID' field. This key
flags the pension payments as manually calculated. This means that some
data from the Pension infotype for the pension holder is not evaluated.
If this is the case, a value is stored in the 'Pension adjustment'
field for the pension holder. This is not evaluated if the pension
holder is a surviving dependent.

How to fix this error?

If the pension for all surviving dependents (widows and widowers) has
been calculated manually, you can delimit the Pension infotype for the
pension holder for the acceptance date of the surviving dependents and
prolong the infotype without entering a value in the 'Pension
adjustment' field.
However, if at least one of the surviving dependents' pensions is
calculated automatically, whereby a pension adjustment amount must also
be taken into account, the percentage rate for the pension adjustment
remains stored for the pension holder.
