  The SAP error message HRPADRU_FSS_CR051 indicates that an action is being attempted on a personnel assignment that is not the main assignment for the employee. This error typically occurs in the context of HR processes, particularly when dealing with personnel administration or payroll functions.
  Cause:
  The error arises when a user tries to perform an action (such as a change or a specific transaction) on a secondary personnel assignment instead of the main personnel assignment. In SAP HR, each employee can have multiple personnel assignments, but certain actions are restricted to the main assignment only.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:

  Perform Action on Main Assignment: Ensure that you are performing the action on the main personnel assignment. If you need to make changes to a secondary assignment, you may need to switch to the main assignment first.
  
  
  Check Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform actions on the main personnel assignment.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure which assignment is the main one, refer to your organization's HR documentation or consult with your HR department for clarification.
