This error indicates that a councillor is being incorrectly assigned to a pension scheme option that is not permissible for their role.

  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue in the SAP system where the rules governing eligibility for the 50/50 scheme are not correctly set up.
  Data Entry Error: There could be an error in the data entry process, where the individual's role or scheme option has been incorrectly recorded.
