How To Fix HRPAD00_INFTY_OPS004 - Technical error: COMMIT is not possible as data already buffered

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRPAD00_INFTY_OPS - Operations Infotypes and Infotype Framework

• Message number: 004

• Message text: Technical error: COMMIT is not possible as data already buffered

What causes this issue?

The infotype operation (method INSERT, MODIFY, or DELETE) cannot be
called with a direct COMMIT as infotype operations have already been
previously called without a direct COMMIT. This means that the data from
the previous calls are still in the buffer of the infotype framework and
would also be saved to the database using the COMMIT.

System Response

Processing is terminated.

How to fix this error?

This is a program error. The methods may not be used in an application
with COMMIT once and without it another time. You must either call the
INITIALIZE method to initialize the buffer beforehand or class
<DS:CL.CL_HRPAD00_INFTY_OPERATIONS>CL_HRPAD00_INFTY_OPERATIONS</> must
be called in a new roll area (for example, using an RFC call via a
function module with destination 'NONE').

  Concurrency Issues: If multiple processes or users are trying to update the same infotype simultaneously, it can lead to conflicts and this error.
