  The SAP error message CNVHCM_PRESEL215 typically indicates an issue related to the selection criteria in the context of the HCM (Human Capital Management) module, particularly during data selection or processing tasks. The message states that the selection was last modified by a specific user on a certain date and time, which can imply that there are conflicts or issues with the data being processed.
  Cause:
  
  Data Locking: The selection criteria or data you are trying to access may be locked by another user or process. This can happen if another user is currently modifying the same data or if there are background jobs that are accessing the same data set.
  Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the data that are causing the selection criteria to fail.
  User Permissions: The user attempting to perform the action may not have the necessary permissions to access or modify the data.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the HCM module or the specific transaction you are trying to execute.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Locks: Verify if the data is locked by another user. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks and release them if necessary.
  Review User Activity: Check the user activity logs to see what changes were made by the user mentioned in the error message. This can help identify if there were any unintended modifications.
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on the data to ensure there are no discrepancies. You can use transaction codes like SE38 to run relevant reports or programs that check for data integrity.
  Permissions Review: Ensure that the user has the appropriate permissions to access and modify the data. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify user roles and authorizations.
  Re-execute the Process: After addressing any locks or inconsistencies, try to re-execute the process that triggered the error.
