• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPADQA067 - Expiry date should be later than the issue date ?

  The SAP error message HRPADQA067 indicates that there is an issue with the validity dates of a document or record in the Human Resources module, specifically related to the expiration date being set earlier than the issue date. This typically occurs in scenarios involving employee documents, such as contracts, certifications, or other HR-related records.
  Cause:
  The error arises when the expiration date of a document is set to a date that is earlier than the issue date. For example, if a document was issued on January 1, 2023, the expiration date cannot be set to December 31, 2022. This is a logical validation to ensure that documents are valid for a period of time after they are issued.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to adjust the dates in the relevant HR record. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Identify the Record: Determine which employee record or document is causing the error. This may involve checking the specific transaction or report that triggered the error.
  
  
  Check Dates: Review the issue date and expiration date of the document in question. Ensure that the expiration date is set to a date that is later than the issue date.
  
  
  Modify the Dates:
  
  Navigate to the relevant transaction in SAP (e.g., PA30 for maintaining HR master data).
  Locate the specific infotype (e.g., Infotype 0041 for "Date Specifications") that contains the issue and expiration dates.
  Update the expiration date to a valid date that is after the issue date.
  
  
  
  Save Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and check if the error persists.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Familiarize yourself with the relevant infotypes in SAP HR that deal with document management and validity dates.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to employee records.
  Documentation: Keep documentation of the changes made for audit purposes and to maintain data integrity.
  Testing: After making changes, it may be beneficial to test the process to ensure that the error does not occur again.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP documentation for further troubleshooting.
