• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPSGB_ABS010 - Specify Non-Qualifying Days with a 'PWS rule' OR 'Emp Rel days' NOT both ?

  The SAP error message HRPSGB_ABS010 typically occurs in the context of absence management within the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module. This error indicates that there is a conflict in the configuration of absence types or rules related to non-qualifying days. Specifically, it suggests that you cannot specify both a "PWS rule" (Paid Working Days) and "Emp Rel days" (Employee Related Days) for the same absence type.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Conflict: The error arises when both types of non-qualifying days are defined for the same absence type in the system. This is not allowed as it creates ambiguity in how the system should process the absence.
  Absence Type Settings: The absence type may have been incorrectly configured in the system, leading to the requirement of both rules being applied simultaneously.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Absence Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the specific absence type in SAP.
  Check the settings for non-qualifying days and ensure that only one of the options (either "PWS rule" or "Emp Rel days") is selected.
  If both are selected, you will need to decide which one is appropriate for your business process and remove the other.
  
  
  
  Adjust Absence Management Settings:
  
  Navigate to the relevant configuration path in the SAP system (usually found under SPRO > Personnel Management > Time Management > Absences).
  Modify the settings to ensure compliance with the requirement of specifying only one type of non-qualifying day.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the absence entry process to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the absence is processed correctly.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed guidance on configuring absence types and understanding the implications of non-qualifying days.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional insights into best practices for configuring absence types.
