  The SAP error message HRPBS00_WBRP_CTRL014 with the description "Draft data is more current than original data" typically occurs in the context of the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module, particularly when dealing with employee data changes, such as in the Workbench for Personnel Administration (PA) or Organizational Management (OM).
  Cause:
  This error indicates that there is a discrepancy between the draft data (the changes you are trying to save) and the original data (the data currently stored in the system). Specifically, it means that the original data has been updated after you retrieved it for editing, and now the system is preventing you from saving your draft because it is based on outdated information.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Refresh the Data: Before saving your changes, refresh the data to ensure you are working with the most current version. This can usually be done by reloading the employee record or navigating away and back to the record.
  
  
  Check for Updates: Investigate if there have been any changes made to the employee data by other users or processes since you opened the record. This can be done by checking the change logs or asking colleagues if they have made updates.
  
  
  Reapply Changes: After refreshing the data, reapply your changes to the draft. This ensures that you are working with the latest data and that your changes are based on the most current information.
  
  
  Save Again: Once you have updated your draft with the latest information, attempt to save it again.
  
  
  Consult with IT or SAP Support: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with your IT department or SAP support team for further assistance. They may need to investigate if there are any underlying issues with the system or if there are specific configurations that need to be addressed.
