• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPANL_EN124 - Employee must be younger than AOW age at LCB start date ?

  The SAP error message HRPANL_EN124 indicates that an employee's age exceeds the allowable limit for a specific benefit or program related to the AOW (Algemene Ouderdomswet) age, which is the Dutch state pension age. This error typically arises in the context of payroll processing or benefits administration when the system checks the eligibility of an employee for certain pension-related calculations or benefits.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  The employee's age is equal to or greater than the AOW age at the time of the LCB (Loonbelastingkorting, or wage tax reduction) start date.
  The system is programmed to restrict certain benefits or calculations to employees who are younger than the AOW age.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Employee's Date of Birth: Verify the employee's date of birth in the SAP system to ensure it is correctly entered.
  
  
  Review AOW Age: Confirm the current AOW age applicable in the Netherlands, as it can change based on government regulations. Ensure that the employee's age is indeed younger than this limit at the specified LCB start date.
  
  
  Adjust LCB Start Date: If the LCB start date is incorrectly set, consider adjusting it to a date where the employee is younger than the AOW age.
  
  
  Consult Payroll Configuration: Review the payroll configuration settings in SAP to ensure that the eligibility criteria for benefits are correctly defined. This may involve checking the relevant infotypes and payroll schemas.
  
  
  Employee Status: If the employee is nearing retirement or has reached the AOW age, consider whether they should still be included in the payroll processing for that benefit.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, it may be necessary to contact SAP support or your internal SAP technical team for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
