5V546 - Details

• The SAP error message 5V546, "You can only assign a career measure as of 01.01.2018," typically occurs in the context of SAP SuccessFactors or SAP HCM when trying to assign a career measure (such as a career development plan or a specific career path) to an employee or position, but the system restricts this action based on the date.
  
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the system's configuration, which restricts the assignment of career measures to a specific date (in this case, January 1, 2018). This restriction may be due to:
  
  Configuration Settings: The system may have been configured to only allow career measures to be assigned from a certain date onward.
  Data Validity: The career measure you are trying to assign may not be valid for the date you are attempting to use.
  Versioning: The career measures may have been updated or changed after the specified date, and the system is enforcing this rule
