HRFPM_FTE041 - Details

• The SAP error message HRFPM_FTE041 indicates that there is an issue with mixing objects that have a financial year reference with those that do not. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Human Resources (HR) or Financial Planning and Management (FPM) modules, where certain data objects are expected to have a consistent reference to a financial year.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to process or analyze data that includes both types of objects—those that are tied to a specific financial year and those that are not. This inconsistency can occur in various scenarios, such as:
  
  Data Selection: When selecting data for reporting or processing, if some records are linked to a financial year while others are not, the system cannot reconcile these differences.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that are not aligned, leading to the mixing of year-referenced and non-year-referenced objects.
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry
