HRWPC_PCR504 - Details

• The SAP error message HRWPC_PCR504 indicates that a wage type is indirectly valuated, meaning that the system cannot directly process or allow manual entry of the amount for that wage type. This typically occurs in the context of payroll processing when certain wage types are derived from other wage types or calculations rather than being entered directly.
  
  Cause:
  
  Indirect Valuation: The wage type in question is set up in the system to be calculated based on other wage types or rules rather than being entered manually. This is common for wage types that are derived from formulas or are dependent on other payroll components.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the payroll schema or wage type characteristics that dictate how the wage type is processed.
