• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRFPM_FTE110 - Infotype record not converted, different infotype record exists ?

  The SAP error message HRFPM_FTE110 indicates that there is an issue with the conversion of an infotype record in the Human Resources module, specifically related to the Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) management. The error suggests that there is a conflict because a different infotype record already exists for the same employee or position, which prevents the system from converting the record as intended.
  Cause:
  
  Existing Infotype Record: The primary cause of this error is that there is already an existing infotype record for the employee or position that conflicts with the record you are trying to convert. This could be due to overlapping validity periods or different data entries for the same infotype.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data that are causing the system to reject the conversion. This could include missing mandatory fields or incorrect data formats.
  Configuration Issues: There might be configuration settings in the system that are not aligned with the expected data structure or rules for the infotype.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Records: Review the existing infotype records for the employee or position in question. Look for any overlapping records or discrepancies that could be causing the conflict.
  
  Use transaction codes like PA20 (Display HR Master Data) or PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) to view the infotype records.
  
  
  
  Adjust Validity Periods: If there are overlapping records, you may need to adjust the validity periods of the existing records to ensure that they do not conflict with the new record you are trying to convert.
  
  
  Data Validation: Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly and that the data adheres to the expected formats. Correct any inconsistencies found.
  
  
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP HR configuration team to review the settings related to the infotype in question. They may need to adjust the configuration to allow for the conversion.
  
  
  Error Logs: Check the system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that could provide more context about the issue. This can be done using transaction SLG1 (Application Log).
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, test the conversion process again to see if the error has been resolved.
