• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPADUAREPORTS005 - Wage codes &2 and &3 contain the same wage type &1 ?

  The SAP error message HRPADUAREPORTS005 indicates that there is a conflict in the wage codes being used in the payroll processing. Specifically, it states that two wage codes (identified as &2 and &3) are associated with the same wage type (identified as &1). This can lead to issues in payroll calculations, as the system expects each wage code to be unique for a given wage type.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Wage Codes: The primary cause of this error is that the same wage type has been assigned to multiple wage codes, which is not allowed in the payroll configuration.
  Configuration Errors: There may be a misconfiguration in the payroll schema or in the wage type assignment in the relevant infotypes (e.g., Infotype 0008 - Basic Pay).
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry during the setup of wage codes or wage types can lead to this conflict.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Wage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for wage types in the SAP system (Transaction code: PE03).
  Check the wage type settings for the wage types involved in the error message.
  Ensure that each wage type is assigned to a unique wage code.
  
  
  
  Check Infotype Records:
  
  Use Transaction code PA30 to review the employee records for the wage types in question.
  Look for Infotype 0008 (Basic Pay) or any other relevant infotypes where wage types are assigned.
  Ensure that the wage types are not duplicated across different wage codes.
  
  
  
  Adjust Payroll Schema:
  
  If necessary, review the payroll schema (Transaction code: PE01) to ensure that the logic does not inadvertently allow for the same wage type to be processed under different wage codes.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, run a test payroll to ensure that the error does not reoccur.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help notes related to payroll configuration for additional guidance on wage type and wage code management.
