Message text: Retroactive accounting limit for payroll must be & or later



What causes this issue?

You have changed the system default for the retroactive accounting
limit. You have chosen a date that comes before the date proposed by
the system.


System Response

The system proposed its retroactive accounting limit to keep the
interval between the retroactive accounting limit and the archiving
date to a minimum. This means that an earlier retroactive accounting
limit is not possible.


How to fix this error?

Choose a later date for the retroactive accounting limit, or restore
the system default.


Procedure for System Administrators
