• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPADARINFOTYPES063 - Wage type &1 has the same validity as &2 ?

  The SAP error message HRPADARINFOTYPES063 indicates that there is a conflict in the validity periods of wage types in the payroll or personnel administration module. Specifically, it means that two wage types are overlapping in their validity periods, which is not allowed in the system.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  Two wage types are defined with the same validity period for a specific employee or payroll run.
  This can happen due to incorrect configuration in the wage type settings or during the data entry process where the same wage type is inadvertently assigned multiple times with overlapping dates.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Wage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for wage types in the SAP system (Transaction code: PE03 or SPRO).
  Review the validity periods for the wage types involved (i.e., &1 and &2 in the error message).
  Ensure that the wage types do not have overlapping validity periods.
  
  
  
  Review Employee Master Data:
  
  Use transaction code PA30 to check the infotype records for the employee in question.
  Look for infotypes related to payroll (e.g., IT0008 for basic pay) and verify the validity periods of the wage types assigned.
  If you find overlapping entries, adjust the validity periods to ensure they do not conflict.
  
  
  
  Adjust Payroll Data:
  
  If the error occurs during payroll processing, you may need to adjust the payroll data for the affected period.
  Run the payroll simulation to identify where the conflict arises and make necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on managing wage types and their validity periods.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, run a test payroll to ensure that the error is resolved and that the wage types are processed correctly.
