• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAYSE_MTS007 - Validation check: if col. 222 exists and 215 not, fill col. 216 and 217 ?

  The SAP error message HRPAYSE_MTS007 typically relates to issues in the payroll processing within the SAP HR module, specifically concerning the validation of certain fields in the payroll results. This error indicates that there is a validation check that requires specific conditions to be met regarding the existence of certain columns (fields) in the payroll results.
  Cause:
  The error message HRPAYSE_MTS007 is triggered when:
  
  Column 222 (which may represent a specific payroll result or wage type) exists, but column 215 (which may represent another payroll result or wage type) does not exist.
  As a result, the system expects that columns 216 and 217 should be filled with appropriate values, but they are not.
  
  This situation often arises due to:
  
  Incorrect configuration of wage types in the payroll schema.
  Missing or incorrect data entries in the infotypes or payroll results.
  Issues with the payroll processing logic that leads to the absence of expected values.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of wage types in the SAP system. Ensure that the wage types are correctly defined and that the dependencies between them are properly set up in the payroll schema.
  
  
  
  Review Payroll Results:
  
  Analyze the payroll results for the employee(s) in question. Check if the values for columns 215, 216, and 217 are being calculated correctly.
  Use transaction code PC_PAYRESULT to view the payroll results and identify any discrepancies.
  
  
  
  Adjust Infotypes:
  
  Ensure that the relevant infotypes (e.g., IT0008 for basic pay, IT0014 for recurring payments) are correctly maintained and that all necessary data is entered.
  
  
  
  Modify Payroll Schema:
  
  If necessary, modify the payroll schema to ensure that the logic correctly handles the conditions for filling columns 216 and 217 when column 222 exists and column 215 does not.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, run a test payroll for the affected employee(s) to verify that the error no longer occurs and that the payroll results are as expected.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to payroll processing and validation checks for additional guidance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data), PC00_MXX_CALC (Payroll Calculation), and PC_PAYRESULT (Display Payroll Results).
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to this error message or provide updates to the payroll processing logic.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP HR team for further assistance.
