• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRWPC_PCR025 - The employment percentage is too high ?

  The SAP error message HRWPC_PCR025, which states "The employment percentage is too high," typically occurs in the context of personnel administration or payroll processing within the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module. This error is related to the employment percentage assigned to an employee, which exceeds the allowed limit set in the system.
  Cause:
  
  
  Employment Percentage Exceeds Limit: The most common cause of this error is that the employment percentage (e.g., full-time equivalent) for an employee is set higher than what is permissible according to the configuration in the system. For example, if the system is configured to allow a maximum of 100% employment, and the employee's percentage is set to 120%, this error will be triggered.
  
  
  Configuration Settings: The limits for employment percentages can be defined in various places, such as in the infotype settings (e.g., Infotype 0000 - Actions, Infotype 0001 - Organizational Assignment) or in the payroll schema.
  
  
  Multiple Employment Relationships: If an employee has multiple employment relationships, the combined employment percentage across all relationships may exceed the allowed limit.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Employment Percentage: Review the employee's employment percentage in the relevant infotypes (e.g., Infotype 0001 - Organizational Assignment). Ensure that the percentage is set correctly and does not exceed the allowed limit.
  
  
  Adjust Configuration: If the employment percentage needs to be higher than the current limit, consult with your SAP HCM configuration team to adjust the settings in the system. This may involve changing the configuration in the payroll schema or adjusting the limits in the infotype settings.
  
  
  Review Multiple Employment Relationships: If the employee has multiple employment relationships, ensure that the total employment percentage across all relationships does not exceed the allowed limit. You may need to adjust one or more of the relationships accordingly.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to this error message for additional context and guidance on resolving the issue.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Familiarize yourself with the relevant infotypes that manage employment data, such as Infotype 0000 (Actions) and Infotype 0001 (Organizational Assignment).
  Payroll Schema: Understand how the payroll schema is configured in your SAP system, as this can impact the limits set for employment percentages.
