• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5G380 - The Mother Died date must be after the MPP start date ?

  The SAP error message 5G380, "The Mother Died date must be after the MPP start date," typically occurs in the context of managing personnel data, particularly when dealing with family relationships or dependencies in the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module. This error indicates that there is a conflict in the dates entered for a dependent or family member's death and the start date of a related personnel action (such as a marriage, birth, or other event).
  Cause:
  The error arises when the "Mother Died" date is set to a date that is earlier than the "MPP (Marriage, Partnership, or Parent) start date." This is logically inconsistent because a death cannot occur before a related event (like a marriage or birth) that would establish the relationship.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Check the Dates: Review the "Mother Died" date and the "MPP start date" in the relevant personnel record. Ensure that the "Mother Died" date is indeed after the "MPP start date."
  
  
  Correct the Dates: If the "Mother Died" date is incorrect, update it to a date that is after the "MPP start date." If the "MPP start date" is incorrect, adjust it accordingly.
  
  
  Validate Data Entry: Ensure that all date entries are accurate and reflect the correct chronological order of events.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the correct dates or the context of the entries, refer to your organization's HR policies or consult with your HR department for guidance.
  
  
  Test Changes: After making the necessary corrections, attempt to save or process the record again to see if the error persists.
