  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAYFR_PY019 - No WPBP for personnel number &1 on &2. ?

    The SAP error message HRPAYFR_PY019 indicates that there is no Work Breakdown Structure (WPBP) for the specified personnel number on the given date. This error typically occurs in the context of payroll processing in the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module, particularly in the French payroll (as suggested by the prefix "HRPAYFR").

    Cause:

    1. Missing WPBP Data: The personnel number specified does not have an associated Work Breakdown Structure (WPBP) entry for the date in question. This could be due to:

      • The employee not being assigned to a WPBP.
      • The WPBP data not being maintained correctly in the system.
      • The WPBP being deleted or not yet created for the relevant period.
    2. Incorrect Date: The date specified in the error message may not correspond to a valid payroll period for which WPBP data is available.

    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the payroll settings that prevent the system from retrieving the WPBP data.

    Solution:

    1. Check WPBP Assignment:

      • Go to the relevant infotype (usually IT 0001 - Organizational Assignment) for the personnel number and verify if the WPBP is assigned correctly.
      • Ensure that the WPBP is valid for the date specified in the error message.
    2. Maintain WPBP Data:

      • If the WPBP is missing, you may need to create or update the WPBP data for the employee. This can typically be done through transaction codes like PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) or PA40 (Personnel Actions).
    3. Review Payroll Configuration:

      • Check the payroll configuration settings to ensure that the WPBP is set up correctly in the system. This may involve consulting with your SAP HCM configuration team.
