• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHHSS_INC_COMMON107 - You cannot assign an injured person; incident is classified as release ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHHSS_INC_COMMON107 indicates that you are trying to assign an injured person to an incident that has been classified as a "release." In the context of SAP's Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, a "release" typically refers to an incident involving the release of hazardous substances, which may not be directly related to an individual injury.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system is designed to prevent the assignment of injured persons to incidents that are classified as releases. This is likely a safeguard to ensure that the incident reporting and management processes are correctly aligned with the nature of the incident. In other words, if the incident is categorized as a release, it does not pertain to individual injuries, and therefore, no injured person can be assigned.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Review Incident Classification: Check the classification of the incident. If the incident should not be classified as a release (for example, if it involves injuries), you may need to change the classification of the incident to reflect its true nature.
  
  
  Correct Incident Type: If the incident is indeed a release, ensure that you are not trying to assign an injured person. Instead, focus on documenting the release and any environmental or safety measures that need to be taken.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP EHS documentation or your organization's internal guidelines to understand the correct procedures for handling incidents classified as releases.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you believe that the classification is incorrect or if you need further assistance, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP EHS.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP EHS Module: The Environment, Health, and Safety module in SAP is designed to help organizations manage compliance with environmental regulations, workplace safety, and health standards.
  Incident Management: Understanding the different types of incidents (e.g., releases, injuries, near misses) and their classifications is crucial for effective incident management.
  Training and Guidelines: Ensure that users involved in incident reporting are trained on the correct procedures and classifications to avoid similar errors in the future.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the error and ensure that incidents are classified and managed appropriately within the SAP system.
