• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPADRUIT_CE023 - Absence of the same type already exists ?

  The SAP error message HRPADRUIT_CE023 indicates that there is an attempt to create or record an absence of a certain type for an employee, but there is already an existing absence of the same type that overlaps with the new entry. This is a common issue in HR modules where absence management is involved.
  Cause:
  
  Overlapping Absences: The most common cause is that the employee already has an absence recorded for the same type (e.g., sick leave, vacation) that overlaps with the dates of the new absence being entered.
  Incorrect Date Entry: The dates entered for the new absence may not be correct, leading to an overlap with an existing absence.
  Configuration Issues: There may be specific configuration settings in the absence management module that prevent multiple entries of the same absence type.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Absences: Review the employee's absence records to identify any existing entries of the same type. You can do this through the SAP HR module by navigating to the relevant infotype (e.g., Infotype 2001 for Absences).
  Adjust Dates: If the new absence is valid and should be recorded, adjust the dates of the new absence to ensure there is no overlap with existing entries.
  Delete or Modify Existing Absence: If the existing absence is no longer valid or needs to be changed, consider deleting or modifying it to allow for the new entry.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists and you believe it should allow multiple entries, consult with your SAP HR configuration team to review the settings related to absence management.
