  The SAP error message HRPAYDEPF230 indicates that the unseizable amount of garnishment has not been reached for a specific employee. This error typically arises in the context of payroll processing when there are garnishments (such as wage attachments or deductions) that are not being processed correctly due to the unseizable amount not being met.
