    The highest level for this pay scale is predefined as pay scale level
    &V2& in view V_T5D7K (<ZK>Parameters for BDA Determination (Basic Pay)
    PSG</>). In the <LS>AdvGr</> field, you have entered &V1& pay scale
    level(s) for advance granting. The total from the regular level for the
    employee and the pay scale levels granted in advance exceeds the defined
    highest level for the pay scale.

    System Response

    Infotype <ZK>Basic Pay</> (0008): The SAP system enters highest level
    &V2& in the <LS>Level</> field.
    Infotype <ZK>Wage Maintenance</> (0052): The SAP system cannot determine
    the current pay scale level for the employee.

    How to fix this error?

    Infotype <ZK>Wage Maintenance</> (0052): Check the number of pay scale
    levels granted in advance in the <ZK>AdvGr</> field and reduce this
    number so that the highest level for the pay scale is no longer
    exceeded.
    If a higher level is permitted than the level specified in the
    Customizing settings, (view V_T5d7K), contact your system
    administration. Note the <LS>Type</>, <LS>Area</>, and <LS>Group</> of
    the specified pay scale and provide this information to system
    administration.
