• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRGB_LGPS105 - Employee has retrospectively changed percentage during month &1 ?

  The SAP error message HRGB_LGPS105 indicates that there has been a retrospective change to an employee's percentage (such as working hours or salary percentage) during a specific month. This typically occurs in the context of payroll processing or time management when changes are made to an employee's data that affect their payroll calculations for a month that has already been processed.

  Configuration Issues: Issues in the configuration of the payroll or time management module that do not handle retrospective changes correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Changes: Check the employee's master data to identify what changes were made and when. Ensure that any changes made are valid and necessary.
  Reprocess Payroll: If the changes are valid, you may need to reprocess the payroll for the affected month. This can involve:
  
  Running the payroll simulation to see the impact of the changes.
  Executing the payroll run again for the month in question.
  
  
  Correct Data Entry: If the change was made in error, revert the changes to the employee's data to the correct values.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific steps related to your configuration and version of SAP.
