  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPA_ARCH103 - Error destroying the data for pers. number &1; pers. number is skipped ?

    The SAP error message HRPA_ARCH103 typically occurs in the context of archiving or deleting personnel data in the Human Resources (HR) module. This error indicates that there was an issue when attempting to destroy (delete) the data for a specific personnel number (pers. number). Here’s a breakdown of the potential causes, solutions, and related information for this error:

    Causes:

    1. Data Locking: The personnel record may be locked by another process or user, preventing the deletion of the data.
    2. Dependencies: There may be existing dependencies or references to the personnel data in other tables or modules that prevent deletion.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user attempting to perform the deletion may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the personnel data.
    4. Data Integrity Constraints: There may be integrity constraints in the database that prevent the deletion of the record.
    5. Archiving Status: The personnel number may not be in a status that allows for destruction (e.g., it may still be in an archived state).

    Solutions:

    1. Check Locks: Verify if the personnel record is locked by another user or process. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
    2. Review Dependencies: Investigate if there are any dependencies or references to the personnel number in other HR tables. You may need to resolve these dependencies before proceeding with the deletion.
    3. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the deletion. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
    4. Data Integrity: Review the database constraints and ensure that there are no integrity issues preventing the deletion. You may need to consult with your database administrator.
    5. Archiving Process: Ensure that the personnel number is in the correct status for destruction. If it is archived, you may need to follow the appropriate archiving process to first unarchive it before deletion.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data), SARA (Archive Administration), and SM37 (Job Monitoring) to monitor background jobs related to archiving.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance. You can search for notes in the SAP Support Portal.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to HR data archiving and destruction processes to ensure compliance with best practices.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or HR support team for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
