  The SAP error message HRPADOM096 indicates that there is an issue with the absence type configuration in relation to the maximum number of calendar days an employee is entitled to during a specific service period. This error typically arises in the context of absence management within the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when an employee attempts to record an absence that exceeds the maximum number of calendar days allowed for a specific absence type during their service period. The parameters for absence types, including the maximum number of days, are usually defined in the system configuration.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Absence Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the absence type in SAP (Transaction code: SPRO).
  Navigate to Personnel Management > Time Management > Absences > Define Absence Types.
  Review the settings for the specific absence type indicated in the error message (represented by &1). Check the maximum number of days allowed (represented by &2).
  
  
  
  Review Employee's Entitlement:
  
  Check the employee's absence entitlement for the specific absence type. This can be done through the employee's infotype records (e.g., Infotype 2001 - Absences).
  Ensure that the employee has not already exhausted their entitlement for that absence type.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration if Necessary:
  
  If the maximum number of days is too low for the business requirements, consider adjusting the configuration to allow for more days.
  Ensure that any changes made are in line with company policies and legal requirements.
  
  
  
  Check Service Period:
  
  Verify the service period for the employee. If the service period is incorrectly defined, it may affect the calculation of entitlements.
  Ensure that the employee's service period aligns with the absence type's configuration.
  
  
  
  Consult with HR or Payroll Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration or the implications of changing it, consult with your HR or payroll team for guidance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Familiarize yourself with relevant infotypes such as Infotype 2001 (Absences) and Infotype 0000 (Actions) to understand the employee's status and absence records.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to absence management for more detailed information on configuring absence types and entitlements.
  Testing: After making any changes, conduct thorough testing to ensure that the error does not recur and that the absence management process works as intended.
