• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLA611 - IT 0015 : There already exists a record with wage type &1 at date &1 ?

  The SAP error message PLA611 IT 0015 indicates that there is an attempt to create or modify a record in the Infotype (IT) 0015 (Additional Payments) for a wage type that already exists for the specified date. This typically occurs when you try to enter a wage type for an employee that has already been recorded for the same date, leading to a conflict.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entry: The most common cause is that there is already an existing entry for the same wage type and date in Infotype 0015.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Records: 
  
  Go to the employee's Infotype 0015 and check for existing entries for the specified wage type and date. 
  If a record exists, you can either modify it or delete it if it is not needed.

  If the existing record is valid, consider modifying it instead of creating a new one.

  Consult with HR or Payroll Team: 
  
  If you are unsure about the entries, consult with your HR or payroll team to ensure that the data is accurate and to avoid any compliance issues.
  
  
  
  Review Data Migration: 
  
  If this issue arose after a data migration, review the migration process to ensure that duplicate records were not created.
