HRPAYDEPF266 - Details

• The SAP error message HRPAYDEPF266 indicates a mismatch between two schemas in the payroll process. Specifically, it suggests that the schema defined in the payroll variant does not match the schema that is currently being used or expected in the payroll run.
  
  Cause:
  
  Schema Mismatch: The payroll variant is configured to use a specific schema, but the schema that is currently being executed is different. This can happen if the payroll variant was changed or if the wrong variant is being used.

  Check Payroll Variant: Verify the payroll variant being used for the payroll run. Ensure that it is configured to use the correct schema.
