• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PSSC_TOOLS_UI013 - There are NCD Header data sets without payment family - data mismatch ?

  The SAP error message PSSC_TOOLS_UI013 indicates that there are NCD (Non-Current Data) Header data sets that do not have an associated payment family, leading to a data mismatch. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's financial or payment processing modules, particularly when dealing with data integrity and consistency.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: The primary cause of this error is that the NCD header records are expected to have a corresponding payment family, but they do not. This could be due to:
  
  Missing or incomplete data entries in the database.
  Incorrect configuration or mapping of payment families in the system.
  Data migration issues where records were not properly linked during a system upgrade or data transfer.
  
  
  
  Configuration Errors: If the payment family settings are not correctly configured in the system, it can lead to mismatches between the NCD header data and the expected payment family.
  
  
  User Input Errors: Manual data entry errors can also lead to missing associations between NCD headers and payment families.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Data Validation: 
  
  Check the NCD header records in the database to identify which records are missing payment family associations.
  Use transaction codes or reports in SAP to extract and analyze the relevant data.
  
  
  
  Correct Missing Associations:
  
  For each NCD header record that is missing a payment family, determine the appropriate payment family and update the records accordingly.
  This may involve consulting with business stakeholders to understand the correct associations.
  
  
  
  Configuration Review:
  
  Review the configuration settings related to payment families in the SAP system. Ensure that all necessary payment families are defined and correctly linked to the relevant NCD header records.
  
  
  
  Data Migration Review:
  
  If this issue arose after a data migration, review the migration process to ensure that all necessary relationships were maintained. You may need to re-run parts of the migration or manually correct the data.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making corrections, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the data integrity is maintained.
  
  
  
  Documentation and Training:
  
  Document the findings and solutions implemented to prevent similar issues in the future.
  Provide training to users on proper data entry and management practices to minimize the risk of data integrity issues.
