• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRFPM_FTE769 - Not possible to delimit the run time because there are assigned objects ?

  The SAP error message HRFPM_FTE769 indicates that there is an issue with delimiting a run time in the context of the SAP Human Resources (HR) module, specifically related to the Flexible Personnel Management (FPM) component. This error typically arises when there are assigned objects (such as employees, positions, or other HR-related entities) that are still linked to the run time you are trying to delimit.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the run time you are attempting to delimit is still associated with one or more objects in the system. This means that the system cannot remove or change the run time because it is still in use or linked to active records.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Assigned Objects: 
  
  Check which objects are assigned to the run time you are trying to delimit. This can typically be done by reviewing the relevant infotypes or using transaction codes like PA20 (Display HR Master Data) or PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) to see if there are any active records linked to the run time.
  
  
  
  Remove Assignments:
  
  If you find any active assignments, you will need to either remove or update these assignments. This may involve changing the status of the employees or objects linked to the run time.
  
  
  
  Delimit the Run Time:
  
  Once all assignments have been removed or updated, you should be able to delimit the run time without encountering the error.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no other dependencies or linked records that might prevent the delimitation. This could include checking for any related infotypes or records that might still be active.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the specific objects or records that are causing the issue, consult the SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PA20, PA30, and others that are used for managing HR data.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional guidance or patches that may address the issue.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the HR data, as lack of permissions can also lead to issues when trying to delimit run times.
