SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRPAY99LOAN - International Payroll: Company Loans

• Message number: 049

• Message text: Installment is imprecise; calculation terminated because of timeout

What causes this issue?

The system has calculated a repayment, but the calculation is not
precise, because the calculation was aborted due to a timeout.

System Response

The system performs loops while calculating the installments for a
company loan to gradually approximate the final value for the
installment. After &v1& loops, the calculation of installments is
basically canceled, because it would take too long otherwise.
However, that does not mean that the employee would pay too little or
too much. The balance of the loan is always completely paid off by the
end date of a company loan. If the system has to abort calculating the
installments, the last repayment is a little lower than it would be if
the system were to perform even more loops.
Since the system could calculate the repayment, it replaces the existing
repayment with the newly calculated value.

How to fix this error?

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
