Error in SWWERRE "No personnel control record exists for accounting area 99"

Question

Dear Experts,
The standard job for restarting of workflows with temporary errors , SWWERRE, has suddenly started failing.
The message obtained in Job Log is "No personnel control record exists for accounting area 99".
The Payroll Control Record for Payroll Area 99 does not exist as it is a non-payroll relevant area.
There has been no change in HCM configuration or Job characteristics.
What could have triggered these sudden failures.
Please suggest.

Hi Shilpa
This is not an issue with the report RSWWERRE (Job SWWERRE).
It must be trying to pickup work items which are in Error State (temporary) - that item may have this data issue - Run Report RSWWERRE from SE38 and debug, you will come to know.
Check if:
1) The error WI belongs to TRIP (BUS2089)
2) Put a break point in FORM SUB_ABRECHNUNG(SAPLHRTR) and run report RSWWERRE (if the work item is still in TEMPORARY ERROR SATE and has not converted to permanent error) ..... debugging should stop there if the above point is correct
3) This will give you the Trip and Employee number - check if the data is consistent (BAPI_TRIP_CHECK_STATUS)
4) This usually happens when you use &TRIP.AVSEXORADAUTHORITYLEVEL& in the binding (of the error step)
if this is true, correct the data and it should work else delete those work items and restart the job (remember to correct the data to avoid future issues).
If not,
still the fist point holds true, "It must be trying to pickup items which are in Error State - that item may have the issue - Run Report RSWWERRE from SE38 and debug, you will come to know." Some errors are deep rooted and cannot be caught by the job
Also check if note 1452535 is relevant for your release.
