This typically occurs during actions such as creating or updating employee records in the Human Resources (HR) module.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate ID Assignment: The ID type you are trying to assign (e.g., a personnel number or social security number) is already in use by another employee in the SAP system.
  Data Entry Error: There may have been a mistake in data entry, leading to an attempt to assign an ID that is already associated with another employee.

  Verify ID Assignment:
  
  Check the ID type and number you are trying to assign. Use transaction codes like PA20 (Display HR Master Data) or PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) to look up the ID in question.

  Check for Data Entry Errors:
  
  Ensure that there are no typographical errors in the ID you are trying to assign. Double-check the ID type and number.
