  The SAP error message CM_EHCSM_SPC_API_CMN047 indicates that the requested profile ID is instance-independent, and as a result, the action you are trying to perform has been aborted. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP's Employee Central or similar modules where profile management is involved.
  
  Cause:
  
  Instance Independence: The profile ID you are trying to access or modify is defined as instance-independent. This means that it is not tied to a specific instance of a business object or entity in the system.
  Incorrect Profile Usage: You may be trying to perform an operation that is not allowed for instance-independent profiles, such as attempting to assign or modify it in a context that requires instance-specific profiles.

  Check Profile ID: Verify that the profile ID you are using is appropriate for the action you are trying to perform. If it is indeed instance-independent, consider whether you need to use a different profile that is instance-specific.
