• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRCCE00PAY013 - Distribution to main assignment impossible since there is no main assign. ?

  The SAP error message HRCCE00PAY013 indicates that there is an issue with the distribution of payroll results to the main assignment in the Human Resources (HR) module. Specifically, it means that the system cannot distribute payroll results because there is no main assignment defined for the employee in question.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Main Assignment: The employee does not have a main assignment set up in the system. In SAP HR, employees can have multiple assignments, but one must be designated as the main assignment for payroll processing.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for the employee's assignments may not be set up correctly, leading to the absence of a main assignment.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be errors in the employee's master data that prevent the system from recognizing a main assignment.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Employee Master Data:
  
  Go to the employee's master data (transaction code PA20 or PA30).
  Verify if there is a main assignment defined. The main assignment is typically indicated by a specific indicator in the employee's records.
  If there is no main assignment, you will need to create one.
  
  
  
  Define Main Assignment:
  
  If the employee has multiple assignments, you can designate one as the main assignment. This is usually done in the "Organizational Assignment" infotype (IT0001).
  Ensure that the main assignment is correctly configured with the necessary details (e.g., personnel area, employee group, etc.).
  
  
  
  Review Payroll Configuration:
  
  Check the payroll configuration settings to ensure that they are set up to handle multiple assignments correctly.
  Ensure that the payroll area and other related settings are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Run Consistency Checks:
  
  Use transaction codes like PU03 (for consistency checks) to identify any inconsistencies in the employee's data that may be causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on handling multiple assignments and payroll processing.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Familiarize yourself with relevant infotypes such as IT0001 (Organizational Assignment), IT0002 (Personal Data), and IT0006 (Addresses) to ensure all necessary data is correctly entered.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for potential patches or updates that may address the issue.
  User Roles: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to make changes to employee master data.
