• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PYC_CONT104 - Payroll run job run successfully ?

  The SAP error message PYC_CONT104 indicates that a payroll run job has completed successfully, but it may not have produced the expected results or outputs. This message typically arises in the context of the SAP Payroll module, where users expect certain outputs or reports to be generated after a payroll run.
  Cause:
  
  No Employees Processed: The payroll run may have been executed without any employees being selected for processing, leading to a successful run but with no output.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the payroll schema or in the selection criteria that prevent employees from being processed.
  Data Issues: Missing or incorrect data for employees (e.g., master data, infotypes) can lead to a situation where the payroll run completes without processing any records.
  Job Scheduling: The job may have been scheduled incorrectly, or the selection criteria for the job may not have included any employees.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Employee Selection: Verify the selection criteria used for the payroll run. Ensure that the correct personnel numbers or selection parameters are set to include the intended employees.
  Review Payroll Configuration: Check the payroll schema and configuration settings to ensure they are set up correctly. Look for any issues that might prevent employees from being processed.
  Validate Employee Data: Ensure that all necessary employee data is complete and accurate. Check for missing infotypes or incorrect data that could affect payroll processing.
  Run a Test Payroll: If possible, run a test payroll for a small group of employees to see if the issue persists. This can help isolate whether the problem is with specific employee data or the overall configuration.
  Check Job Logs: Review the job logs for any warnings or messages that might indicate why no employees were processed. This can provide insights into what went wrong during the payroll run.
