HRITFIN034
- Only latest record can be edited. ?The SAP error message HRITFIN034: "Only latest record can be edited." typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) data management, particularly when dealing with infotypes that track employee data over time. This error indicates that the system is preventing edits to historical records, allowing changes only to the most recent record for a given infotype.
Cause:
- Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity by ensuring that only the latest record can be modified. This is to prevent inconsistencies in historical data.
- Infotype Configuration: Certain infotypes are configured to allow only the latest record to be edited. This is common in infotypes that track changes over time, such as employment status, salary, or benefits.
- User Action: The user may be attempting to edit an older record instead of the most recent one.
Solution:
- Edit the Latest Record: Ensure that you are attempting to edit the most recent record for the infotype in question. You can check the date validity of the records to identify the latest one.
- Create a New Record: If you need to make changes that affect historical data, consider creating a new record with the updated information rather than editing an existing one.
- Review Configuration: If you believe that the infotype should allow edits to older records, review the configuration settings in the SAP system. This may require assistance from an SAP HR consultant or system administrator.
- Use Transaction Codes: Use the appropriate transaction codes (like PA30 for maintaining HR master data) to navigate to the infotype and ensure you are working with the correct record.
