• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPBSAE135 - Absence type only applicable for employee with &1 nationality ?

  The SAP error message HRPBSAE135 indicates that a specific absence type is only applicable to employees with a certain nationality. This error typically arises in the context of managing employee absences in the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module, particularly when trying to record or process an absence for an employee whose nationality does not match the criteria set for that absence type.
  Cause:
  
  Nationality Restriction: The absence type you are trying to use has been configured to be applicable only for employees of a specific nationality. If the employee's nationality does not match this requirement, the system will throw this error.
  Configuration Settings: The absence type may have been set up in the system with restrictions based on employee nationality, which is common in organizations that have specific policies for different nationalities.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Employee Nationality: Verify the nationality of the employee for whom you are trying to record the absence. You can do this by checking the employee's master data in the SAP system.
  Review Absence Type Configuration: If you have the necessary permissions, review the configuration of the absence type in the SAP system. This can be done in the following way:
  
  Go to the SAP HCM configuration (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to the section for absence types and check the settings related to nationality restrictions.
  
  
  Modify Absence Type Settings: If the absence type needs to be applicable to a broader range of nationalities, you may need to modify the configuration. This should be done by a qualified SAP HCM consultant or administrator.
  Use an Alternative Absence Type: If the absence type is indeed restricted and cannot be changed, consider using an alternative absence type that is applicable to the employee's nationality.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files related to absence management for more details on how absence types are configured and the implications of nationality restrictions.
  User Roles and Permissions: Ensure that the user attempting to process the absence has the appropriate roles and permissions to view and modify absence types and employee data.
  Testing Changes: If any changes are made to the configuration, it is advisable to test the changes in a development or quality assurance environment before applying them to the production system.
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or an SAP HCM expert for further assistance.
