IPPError53 | Error 5 or 512 - Invalid Procedure Call or Argument - Earnie

The ‘fn’ indicates this pay code is based on a formula saved in the system. This error occurs when the formula the system is looking for cannot be found. 

This usually occurs when payroll has been reinstalled to a new location,  computer or network address and some of the original data has been left behind.

If you still can access the original PC / network location, look for any files with the extension .def. These are the formula definitions the system is trying to use. Copy these to the new PC / network location.

If you cannot access the original PC / location the formula will need to be created again. These are set up under ‘Company’ > ‘Alter Payments/deductions’. Click on the ‘Formulas’ button and re create the formula.
