• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRASR00_BOL_PROCESS054 - New steps have been added due to existence of multiple data records ?

  The SAP error message HRASR00_BOL_PROCESS054 typically occurs in the context of the SAP HCM (Human Capital Management) module, particularly when dealing with the Business Object Layer (BOL) in the context of the SAP Application Framework. This error indicates that there are multiple data records present for a specific object, which leads to the addition of new steps in the processing logic.
  Cause:
  The error is generally caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Duplicate Records: There are multiple entries in the database for the same object or data record that the system is trying to process. This can happen due to data inconsistencies or errors during data entry.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration in the BOL or the underlying data model can lead to the system not being able to determine which record to process.
  Data Model Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model or the way data is structured, it may lead to unexpected behavior in the processing logic.
  
  Solution:
