Answer 1

I realize this is an old thread, but this is more than likely a very simple fix to a somewhat misleading error message.  This is assuming that all other eligibility configuration is correct (e.g. T5UBU is correct, ELIGR feature is correct, no user exits are overriding the value).
The error No entry for eligibility variant XXXX / eligibility grouping YYYY could be that eligibility rule for the variant/grouping of XXXX/YYYY has a start date which is greater than the employee hire date record in infotype 0000.  This scenario will generate the error.
To verify, set the start value for the eligibility rule equal to or before the hiring start date for the employee which you are receiving the error.  For example, if your employee has an initial hire date of 12/10/2001 check the eligibility rule in table T5UBV (IMG > Personnel Management > Benefits > Flexible Administration > Programs > Employee Eligibility > Define Eligibility Rules) to see if the start date is less than or equal to 12/10/2001.  If the date is greater than the hire date, simply change the start date of the eligibility rule to precede the hire date.
The difficulty in this error is that the plan might be correctly offered for certain employees (with later hire dates for example), but incorrectly for employees with much older hire dates (see sofiastef1u2019s comment on 8/26/2010).
To avoid any conflicts of determining the hire date altogether, you can also set the begin date of the rule to 01/01/1900.
