• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPADIT_DECLARATION085 - Template &1: more than one XML root node found in T5ITUG ?

  The SAP error message HRPADIT_DECLARATION085 indicates that there is an issue with the XML file being processed, specifically that there is more than one root node found in the XML structure. This typically occurs when the XML file is not well-formed, meaning it does not adhere to the required structure for XML documents.
  Cause:
  
  Malformed XML: The XML file may contain multiple root elements instead of a single root element. In XML, there must be exactly one root element that encompasses all other elements.
  Incorrect Data Generation: The process that generates the XML file may have a bug or misconfiguration, leading to the creation of an invalid XML structure.
  Data Duplication: There may be duplicate entries or records in the data that are being exported to XML, causing multiple root nodes to be created.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check XML Structure: Open the XML file in a text editor or XML validator to inspect its structure. Ensure that there is only one root element. The structure should look something like this:
  <RootElement>
      <ChildElement1>...</ChildElement1>
      <ChildElement2>...</ChildElement2>
  </RootElement>
  If you find multiple root elements, you will need to correct the XML structure.
  
  
  Review Data Generation Logic: If the XML is generated by a specific program or report, review the logic to ensure that it is correctly creating a single root node. This may involve debugging the code or configuration that generates the XML.
  
  
  Data Cleanup: If the issue is due to data duplication, ensure that the data being processed does not contain duplicates or is structured correctly before generating the XML.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific module (in this case, HR) to see if there are any known issues or updates that address this error.
  
  
  Testing: After making corrections, test the XML generation process again to ensure that the error does not occur.
