• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAY99PM106 - Process &1 has been stopped by the breakpoint before step &2 ?

  The SAP error message HRPAY99PM106 indicates that a process has been interrupted by a breakpoint in the program. This typically occurs during the execution of a payroll process or a related function in the SAP HR module. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Breakpoint Set in Code: The most common reason for this error is that a breakpoint has been set in the ABAP code of the payroll program. This is often done for debugging purposes.
  Debugging Mode: If the program is running in debugging mode, it may stop at a breakpoint that was intentionally placed by a developer or inadvertently left in the code.
  Custom Code: If there are custom enhancements or modifications in the payroll processing logic, a breakpoint might have been added for testing.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Remove Breakpoints:
  
  If you have access to the ABAP Workbench (SE80 or SE38), you can check for breakpoints in the program. Use transaction SE80 or SE38 to open the relevant program and remove any breakpoints.
  You can also use transaction /h to enter debugging mode and then navigate to the breakpoints to deactivate them.
  
  
  
  Check for Debugging Mode:
  
  Ensure that the payroll process is not being executed in debugging mode. If it is, exit the debugging mode and run the process normally.
  
  
  
  Consult with Developers:
  
  If you are not the developer, consult with your ABAP team or the person responsible for the payroll program to understand why the breakpoint is there and whether it should be removed.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code:
  
  If there are custom enhancements, review them to ensure that they do not contain unintended breakpoints or debugging statements.
  
  
  
  Run in Production Environment:
  
  If you are testing in a development or quality environment, try running the payroll process in the production environment where debugging is typically not enabled.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE80 (Object Navigator), SE38 (ABAP Editor), and SE37 (Function Module).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to the payroll program you are using. Sometimes, SAP releases notes that address specific issues or bugs.
  Documentation: Review the documentation for the payroll process you are executing to ensure that all prerequisites and configurations are correctly set up.
  
  If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be necessary to engage SAP support or your internal IT team for further investigation.
