  The SAP error message HRBAS_ITF011 indicates that there is an attempt to change data in a personnel action that is not allowed due to the current status of the employee record. This typically occurs in the context of Human Resources (HR) management when trying to modify certain fields or data during a status change (e.g., hiring, termination, or other personnel actions).
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when:
  
  You are trying to change data that is not permitted for the current status of the employee.
  The system has certain restrictions based on the employee's status (e.g., active, inactive, on leave).
  The data you are trying to modify is locked or restricted due to the nature of the personnel action being processed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Employee Status: Verify the current status of the employee record. Ensure that the changes you are trying to make are allowed for that specific status.
