How To Fix HRPSGB_ABS012 - Valuation rule is NOT allowed, if Non-Qualifying days are NOT specified

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRPSGB_ABS -

• Message number: 012

• Message text: Valuation rule is NOT allowed, if Non-Qualifying days are NOT specified

What causes this issue?

You have entered a Valuation Rule to 'handle' the 'Non-qualifying'
days. However you have not entered either a Period Work Schedule Rule
(or 'ticked' the 'check box' to use the employee's Personnel Work
Schedule) to specify Qualifying and Non-qualifying days for 'reducing
the employee's entitlement', which are mandatory for Absence Evaluation
Scheme processing, if a Valuation Rule has been entered.

System Response

Without either a Period Work Schedule Rule (or a 'tick' in the 'check
box' that uses the employee's Personnel Work Schedule), the Valuation
Rule must be left blank. The Valuation Rule is not blank, so report an
error.

How to fix this error?

Either enter a Period Work Schedule Rule (or a 'tick' in the 'check
box' to use the employee's Personnel Work Schedule) or blank out the
Valuation Rule. If the correct Period Work Schedule Rule is not
available to be used here, then Standard Customising should be used in
IMG to create a suitable Period Work Schedule Rule.

  The SAP error message HRPSGB_ABS012 indicates that there is an issue with the valuation rule in the context of absence management, specifically when dealing with non-qualifying days. This error typically arises in the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module when the system is unable to process absence records due to the absence configuration settings.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A valuation rule is defined in the absence type configuration, but the system does not have any non-qualifying days specified.
  The absence type is set up in such a way that it requires non-qualifying days to be defined for the valuation rule to be applicable.
  The absence type configuration may be incomplete or incorrectly set up, leading to a conflict in how the absence is processed.

  Review Valuation Rules:
