  The SAP error message HRPADRU_OPERATION_LN096 typically indicates that there is an issue related to the payroll status of an employee in the SAP HR module. This error message is often encountered during payroll processing or when trying to perform operations that require a specific payroll status.

  The error message "Payroll status was set" usually means that the payroll status for the employee is currently set in a way that prevents further processing. This could be due to several reasons, including:
  
  Payroll Lock: The payroll period may be locked, preventing any changes or processing.
  Incorrect Status: The employee's payroll status may not be set correctly for the operation you are trying to perform (e.g., trying to run payroll for an employee who is not eligible).
  Previous Payroll Run: If a payroll run has already been executed for the period, it may prevent further changes.
