HRBAS00DLG851 - Details

• The SAP error message HRBAS00DLG851 indicates that you are trying to change an object that already has a historical record flag set. This typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) data management, where certain records are marked as historical to preserve their state at a specific point in time.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to modify an object (such as an employee record, position, or other HR-related data) that has already been flagged as historical.
