Table T5UXT - Gap in Entries - Okay to Manually Replace/Adjust?

[KT_Edward-L]

Hello Community,

We are in the process of upgrading to SP99 (after recently upgrading our DEV/QA clients to 97, but experienced too many performance issues and BSI-related connection errors), and I had performed a test payroll run in our QA PCC environment and received an error tied to the T5UXT table and the state of AZ Employer Unemployment taxes.

Error: "Tax authority AZ and tax type 010 at the date 11/25/2019 does not exist!"

When viewing this table's entries for AZ-010, you can see that there is a significant gap in effective dates (no active entry between 12/31/2010 & 01/01/2020), and we are noticing that a retro calculation is occurring and triggering a pay period back in 2019 for one of our coworkers.

My main question is: Can I manually add/modify the effective dates for the AZ 010 entries in T5UXT? Or is it better to have a correction to this table made by SAP Note since it is a SAP/BSI maintained table?

Additionally, but not directly related to this, we identified an error with wage type /410 (ER Unemployment Tax) in which processing class 78 was erroneously changed from "blank" to "2" Taxes to be Remitted... but I did not see where this was listed in SP release notes, and it caused an error with our Third Party Evaluation step for hundreds of coworkers in the test run. I've since modified this value within V_512W_D, to set the PC78 back to 0 (null) and will be performing a re-run of the payroll soon... but very confused/concerned about a change to a SAP standard wage type that I did not see documented anywhere. Is this common, or did I simply miss the mention of it?

Any help/advice regarding table T5UXT would be appreciated. Thanks!

Update: SAP Support did respond indicating it was okay to modify this table manually on the client side.
