Cause

This application error with fingerprint f3ce9a3a41ae144adaab6408ef70da5f2f3e97a9 is the result of incomplete and or incorrect configuration

Resolution

The most likely root cause of this error is that the Insurance Plan of the Benefit has no pay component selected for either 'Employer contribution pay component' or 'Employee contribution pay component'.

A pay component should be selected for both regardless of whether a corresponding amount will actually be used. Note: SAP Development Team are reviewing this behaviour currently and may remove this requirement in a future release.
