HRPSGB_ME_NEW032 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRPSGB_ME_NEW - Multiple Employment (Re-work Into STD)

• Message number: 032

• Message text: Non-primary Postgr. Loan deduction &1 will creates negative YTD on /PGL

What causes this issue?

The Postgraduate Loan calculations for this employee has been
re-assessed during retrospective payroll. This can only happen on the
primary contract when all the necessary information is known.
This means that if there was a Postgraduate Loan Deduction (/PGL) on the
"old" primary contract then this cannot be re-calculated, even if the
"old" primary contract has been recalculated. So the Postgraduate Loan
Deduction on the "new" non-primary needs to be taken into account on the
"new" primary.
This happens by deducting the value already deducted from the YTD total
in COURT before the re-calculation on the primary and also from the
Postgraduate Loan Deduction (/PGL) calculated in IT.

System Response

This unfortunately has brought this contract into a negative YTD
situation. This cannot automatically be handled by the solution and so
it is necessary for the "Trigger" wage type MEPG to be entered on
non-primary contract in the period that is causing problem and this will
trigger the /PGL values on the non-primary to be cleared, before the
primary is re-calculated.

How to fix this error?

On the non-primary contract enter a MEPG wage type in IT0015 for each
period that needs to be recalculated.
In each of those periods, /PGL will be cleared and the table COURT entry
for the Postgraduate Loan will have the TOTDN field will be reduced by
the amount of /PGL. This means that when the Postgraduate Loan is
re-calculated on the primary, the /PGL amount will no longer exist on
the non-primary.
