HRPAYDESVD3017 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRPAYDESVD3 - Error Notifications DEUEV

• Message number: 017

• Message text: Notification cannot be processed due to a previous error

What causes this issue?

An error occurred for a previous inbound notification. As a result, the
associated change to infotype/subtype &V1& &V2& could not be made.

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

The processing of the inbound notifications for the personnel number
cannot be continued for this infotype since all subsequent inbound
notifications would be based on an inconsistent infotype status.

System Response

All inbound notifications for the personnel number that change the
infotype/subtype &V1& &V2& are set to the status <LS>To Be Checked</>
and are not processed.

How to fix this error?

Check the error in the previous inbound notification.
If the error can be resolved, start the processing again. If the inbound
notification can be processed, all subsequent inbound notifications will
also be processed.
If the error cannot be resolved, make the necessary infotype changes
manually and set the previous inbound notification to the status
<LS>Processed Manually</>. Then restart the processing. All subsequent
inbound notifications will now be processed.
