What causes this issue?

The payroll simulation module starts the payroll driver in simulation
mode. For the employee &V1&, an error occured during the execution of
the payroll driver in simulation mode. This error may be due to missing
or incorrect <ZK>Benefits </> or <ZK>Payroll</> Customizing.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to document the error at this point.

System Response

Payroll simulation terminated.

How to fix this error?

Change the plan selection and test whether payroll simulation is
successful. If this is the case, find out which benefit plan caused the
error and check the customizing of this plan. The missing or incorrect
customizing entry probably lies in the future.
Test payroll simulation with no plans selected. If the simulation is
not successful, start the payroll driver in test mode for the period
for which the payroll simulation was performed. An error is likely to
occur, and is probably the same error that caused the payroll
simulation to fail. Correct your customizing to prevent this error
occurring again in the future.
