Also, you don't fully describe the error, in particular the errant contribution. If the error was not made, would that have resulted in more of a contribution allocated to other participants (we contributed $X to be allocated to those eligible based on pay) or simply would that contribution amount not been made at all (we wanted to contribute X% of pay for those eligible)? If the former, then the defect likely warrants correction where someone (employer, TPA, shared) makes the plan whole by funding, and then such is allocated. If the latter, participants have not been harmed, this is simply an inadvertent error the plan sponsor can choose not to recover.
