This error typically arises during payroll processing when the system expects a monthly-paid employee but encounters a daily-paid employee instead.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Employee Master Data: The employee's payroll type may be incorrectly set in the master data. For example, the employee might be classified as a monthly-paid employee in the system, but they are actually a daily-paid employee.

  Data Entry Errors: Manual data entry errors during the setup of the employee's payroll information can lead to this mismatch.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Employee Master Data:
  
  Go to the employee's master data in the SAP system (Transaction PA30).
