How To Fix 5W580 - There is no active implementation of the HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES BAdI

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 5W - Messages for PD (Particularly Workflow)

• Message number: 580

• Message text: There is no active implementation of the HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES BAdI

What causes this issue?

There is no active implementation of the HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES BAdI. The
GET_RDN method of this BAdI is used to determine the key of an employee
data record (RDN). The key is mandatory to be able to export the data
record to a connected LDAP directory server.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Activate the implementation of the same name of the above-mentioned BAdI
that is provided by SAP. It provides as the key (RDN) of an employee
record a concatenation consisting of the name of the logical system from
which the employee data originates and the personnel number. If this is
not sufficient for your requirements, implement and activate a
customer-specific BAdI.

  The SAP error message 5W580 indicates that there is no active implementation of the HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES Business Add-In (BAdI). This BAdI is typically used in the context of integrating SAP HR with LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) systems, allowing for the customization of attributes that are synchronized between SAP and the LDAP directory.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when the system attempts to execute functionality that relies on the HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES BAdI, but there is no active implementation available. This can happen for several reasons:
  
  The BAdI has not been implemented in the system.
  The implementation exists but is not activated.
  The system configuration is incomplete or incorrect.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that there is an active implementation of the HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES BAdI. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Check for Existing Implementations:

  Click on the "Implementations" button to see if there are any existing implementations.
  
  
  
  Create a New Implementation:
  
  If there are no implementations, you can create one:

  Enter HRLDAP_ATTRIBUTES and create a new implementation.
  Implement the necessary methods as per your requirements.
  
  
  
  
  
  Activate the Implementation:
  
  After creating the implementation, ensure that it is activated. You can do this in the same transaction (SE19) by selecting the implementation and choosing the "Activate" option.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the configuration for LDAP integration is correctly set up in your system. This may involve checking the relevant customizing settings in transaction SPRO.
