  The SAP error message HRHAP00_TEMPLATE174 indicates that the system is unable to display the last appraisal document because it cannot find the appraisee (the employee whose performance is being evaluated). This typically occurs in the context of the SAP HCM (Human Capital Management) module, particularly in the Performance Management or Appraisal processes.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Appraisee Data: The appraisee's data may not be correctly linked to the appraisal document. This could happen if the employee record is incomplete or if the employee has been deleted or is inactive.

  Incorrect Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the appraisal process or in the related infotypes that prevent the system from retrieving the appraisee's information.
  Data Consistency Issues: There could be inconsistencies in the database, such as orphaned records or missing entries in related tables.

  Check Appraisee Data: Verify that the appraisee's employee record exists and is active. Ensure that all necessary infotypes (e.g., Personal Data, Organizational Assignment) are correctly filled out.
