• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAYTR03231 - Current version may not be deleted ?

  The SAP error message HRPAYTR03231, which states "Current version may not be deleted," typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) payroll processing when there is an attempt to delete a payroll version that is currently in use or has not been properly closed.
  Cause:
  
  Active Payroll Version: The payroll version you are trying to delete is currently active or has been used in payroll processing.
  Open Period: The payroll period associated with the version is still open, meaning that payroll processing has not been finalized for that period.
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies or references to the payroll version in other processes or configurations that prevent deletion.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Payroll Status: Verify if the payroll version is currently active. You can do this by checking the payroll status in the relevant transaction (e.g., PC00_MXX_CALC, where MXX is the country-specific payroll).
  Close Payroll Period: If the payroll version is still open, you will need to close the payroll period before attempting to delete the version. This usually involves running the payroll for that period and ensuring all necessary actions are completed.
  Review Dependencies: Check for any dependencies or references to the payroll version in other configurations or processes. Ensure that there are no ongoing processes that rely on the version you are trying to delete.
  Use Correct Transaction: Make sure you are using the correct transaction code to delete the payroll version. The transaction code for managing payroll versions is usually PC00_MXX_VERS.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for specific guidelines related to your version of SAP and the payroll module.
