Message text: PDC retroactive accounting date for employee could not be determined



What causes this issue?

The system evaluated an eligibility rule that uses the actual hours
worked by an employee as an eligibility criterion. However, for this
particular employee no <DS:DE.BDERR>Recalculation date for PDC
</> is stored on the <ZK>Payroll Status</> infotype (0003).
Either the employee is not subject to time evaluation (as specified by
the <DS:DE.PT_ZTERF>Time management status
</> setting on the <ZK>Planned Working Time</> infotype (0007)), or
time data has not yet been evaluated for the employee.


System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.



How to fix this error?

If time evaluation is not required for the employee, assign him/her to
a different eligibility grouping that refers to an eligibility rule
without actual hours worked as an eligibility criterion.
If actual hours worked are to be used as an eligibility criterion, run
the time evaluation program (RPTIME00) for the employee in question so
that the <LS>Recalculation date for PDC</> is set on the <ZK>Payroll
Status</> infotype (0003).
