Message text: DAS deduction already exists for same payroll period

What causes this issue?

You have attempted to create a new Scottish Arrestment Order for this
employee. However, a Debt Arrangement Scheme (DAS) deduction already
exists for this employee in the same period .

System Response

This warning message is issued to inform you that a DAS deduction is
currently in operation.
You cannot make deductions under both a Scottish court order and a Debt
Arrangement Scheme (DAS) deduction. If you ignore this warning and
create a new DAS deduction when a Scottish court order (subtypes
mentioned above) already exists, the system will not process the
employee through payroll . He or she will be rejected during payroll
processing.

How to fix this error?

You must investigate further and correct the existing master data to
ensure only one Scottish Court Order or DAS deduction is in operation at
the same time for this employee.
