• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAYNLLA_EN201 - Manual maintenance of SI reduction only allowed at end of the year ?

  The SAP error message HRPAYNLLA_EN201 indicates that manual maintenance of the Social Insurance (SI) reduction is only permitted at the end of the year.

  Use Correct Procedures: If you need to make adjustments, follow the correct procedures for year-end processing. This may involve running specific payroll reports or transactions designed for year-end adjustments.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for handling SI reductions and payroll adjustments.
