  The SAP error message HRPBSAU508 indicates that there is an issue with the cessation code 'C2' in the context of the Australian payroll system. This specific error message suggests that the cessation code is being used inappropriately with the CSS (Commonwealth Superannuation Scheme) fund.

  Update the Employee Record: If the wrong cessation code has been entered, update the employee's record with the appropriate cessation code that is valid for the CSS fund.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP HR documentation or your organization's payroll guidelines to identify the valid cessation codes for different funds, especially for CSS.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the necessary updates, run a test payroll or simulation to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the employee's termination is processed correctly.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unsure about which cessation code to use or if the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or a payroll specialist for further assistance.
