This is usually a problem in the dates between regular payroll and offcycle payroll, so you should check the payroll control record, infotype 0003, infotype 0267 and the date you are using in payroll program. It shouldn't be anything far from that.
The message "Payment date of payroll 15.12.2011 later than period end of next payroll 31.07.2011" is due to a correction inserted by the note 702025. This date check is necessary, and without it a critical error will happen when you run cumulation in table CRT (see note 766539 for detail). Off-cycles, whether for termination or for bonus, can only be made after the paydate of the last payroll period run and before the paydate of the present payroll period. This is how it is designed in the SAP system. Out-of-sequence check date is not allowed. Paydates have to increase monotonously. Otherwise, it would not be possible to manage retro calculation of payroll. So the system is behaving as intended.
The payroll runs chronology check procedure was extended by note 702025 which is included in the following HR Support Packages:
46C HSP 82 SAPKE46C82
470 HSP 27 SAPKE47027.
The task of the extension is to assure that the cumulations stored in the payroll results table CRT are always valid. Therefore, if the CRT totals are based on the period ends (typical), it rejects the calculation with the new message HRPAY99CALC 744 if you try to run an off-cycle payment in a new month before having run the regular pay for the last month.
The check procedure reads table T56C4 to find out whether the CRT table depends on payroll ends or payments for a country modifier (MOLGA).
There were two scenarios proposed to avoid such error message. Both were prepared for payroll country versions different that India, however, you could consider potential use of solution presented finding out the CRT table usage in your installation.
Note 729531 was prepared for country version Poland (MOLGA=46) and deals with the similiar problem. The note 631474 deals with Argentina payroll. Both indicate the CRT table use. Check your instalation in this context, please. Additionally, check the note 702025 for your convenience in finding a context of the issue.
