SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRHAP00_TEMPLATE - HR-HAP: Appraisal Template

• Message number: 615

• Message text: Appraisal template &1 is not fully supported

What causes this issue?

The appraisal template was generated by the predefined Performance
Management process and is not fully supported for this transaction.
An appraisal template that has been generated by the predefined
Performance Managment process may, for example, use more columns than
can be displayed in the administrator functions (transaction
PHAP_ADMIN).
Furthermore, changes in the catalog for appraisal templates (transaction
PHAP_CATALOG), such as access rights, columns, layout, or status flow,
can negatively affect the appraisal template in the predefined
Performance Management process and cause errors in the process flow. We
therefore recommend that you not make any changes.
