HRASR00_SA_PUBLIC051 - Details

• The SAP error message HRASR00_SA_PUBLIC051 with the description "Mandate Begda - Begin date precedes hiring date" typically occurs in the context of employee data management, particularly when dealing with employee mandates or contracts in the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module.
  
  Cause:
  This error arises when there is a mismatch between the start date of a mandate (e.g., a contract, employment agreement, or other relevant documentation) and the hiring date of the employee. Specifically, the error indicates that the "Begda" (begin date) of the mandate is set to a date that is earlier than the employee's hiring date. This situation is logically inconsistent because a mandate cannot start before the employee is officially hired.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Employee Hiring Date: Verify the hiring date of the employee in the system. This can usually be found in the employee's master data (infotype 0000 - Actions).
