What causes this issue?

Current legislation states that Statutory Paternity Pay (SPP) cannot be
paid to an employee that receives Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) in any part
of the SPP week.
In your SAP system, for an employee to receive SSP and therefore <ZH>not
</> receive SPP payment, an SSP'able absence must be entered during the
SPP week for him or her.
If this SSP absence does not overlap with the SPP payment day, then the
SPP payment day will be processed by the standard rules because:
a) If the employee did receive any SSP, the SPP mark is non-payment
b) If the employee did NOT receive any SSP the SPP mark is payment.
In either case, the SSP in the SPP week is handled during the creation
of NCALE.
If this SSP absence overlaps with the SPP payment day, then the SPP
payment day will not be processed at all because no National Calendar
Table NCALE (PCNAT) entry for SPP will exist on this day. In this case,
if the SSP'able day is paid SSP, then no SPP can be due.
However, if the SSP'able day is not paid SSP, then SPP may be due if no
SSP has been paid during the SPP week <ZH>and</> there are some SPP
qualifying days in the SPP week.
The check that the current day in question is SSP'able is made with
reference to the last day of the SPP week. A check is made that the
employee has not received any SSP payments in that SPP week and that SPP
qualifying days has been processed and the check has been passed.
The employee should receive SPP.

System Response

This is simply an information message to say that even though the
employee has not been absent all week on an SPP'able absence they are
still due to receive SPP.
