PA52 - error pending action does not exist

I think EFFECT_DATE is one of the keys. If you need to change it, you may need to delete the original action and create a new one with the new EFFECT_DATE

I usually push in both the PCT and ORIG values and to change the effective date you need include the process type

_PDL=HRTEST1&_TKN=PA52.1&_EVT=CHG&_RTN=DATA&_LFN=ALL&_TDS=IGNORE&FC=C&PCT-COMPANY=1000&PCT-EMPLOYEE=200&PCT-ACTION-CODE=PF:FNLTERM&PCT-EFFECT-DATE=20190312&ORIG-COMPANY=1000&ORIG-EMPLOYEE=200&ORIG-ACTION-CODE=PF:FNLTERM&ORIG-EFFECT-DATE=20190312&PCT-REASON1=TV0060&PCT-REASON2=&PCT-PROCESS-TYPE=1&PCT-NEW-EFFECT-DATE=20190501&_DELIM=%09&_OUT=XML&_EOT=TRUE

but "ORIG values" are not part of the selected list as oppose to PCT. How would one know about "ORIG values"?

I believe it was version 9 that introduced the orig values. They are required for doing an MS Add-Ins upload to PA52, you can see them (or at least I can) when I use the Transaction builder tool in IPA. I can also see them when I build an MS Add-Ins for PA52. They are greyed out - (as they are hidden on the form).

I try first delete then add but running into issue with message: "

Warning, Req Deds will be updated for term emp, OK to cont"

Error code: 5

Information code: 190

There are hidden screen fields, that need to be set to 1, to avoid the "OK to cont" message. In your case, XMIT-REQDED

2 *XMIT-HREMP-BLOCK N 10 SB
2 *XMIT-DEDDAT N 01 SB
2 *XMIT-IMMED N 01 SB
2 *XMIT-REQDED N 01 SB
2 *XMIT-ACT-EXISTS N 01 SB

I get this error per the change below:

PA52Add_returnMessage = Error while parsing data returned org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 50; White spaces are required between publicId and systemId.

I see that you have an underscore XMIT_REQDED, should probably be XMIT-REQDED. I recommend using Fiddler or some similar tool, do a personnel action manually,capture the call so you know the exact syntax.

Are you doing this with a Lawson transaction or trying to do it with a webrun or other way?

Also - in your first post you were trying to update the effective date, which is slightly different. The one you most recently posted appears to be doing an add of a new transaction.

The following text is a PA52 transaction, done with a Lawson transaction node. I built this to load mass transactions that are pulled from our production system and load to our development system. I use this when we are doing system testing and need to re-create transaction from production into development.

The transaction accounts for every field on PA52. You need to pass the field number for each field that has a value on PA52.

To avoid the "pop up" messages you need to pass the values for this
&BYPASS-POPUPS=Y&XMIT-HREMP-BLOCK=111111000&XMIT-IMMED=1&XMIT-REQDED=1&_LFN=ALL&_TDS=IGNORE&

This will avoid the things like rate override etc.


But if you are still just trying to update effective date on an existing PA52 action - the following works to accomplish the effective date change.
