• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPBSHU838 - Prosecution/court basic leave and manager addit. leave exceeds 40 days ?

  The SAP error message HRPBSHU838 indicates that the total leave days (basic leave and any additional leave granted by a manager) for an employee exceeds the allowed limit of 40 days. This is typically related to the configuration of leave policies within the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module.

  Review Leave Policy: Check the configuration of the leave policy in the SAP system to confirm the maximum allowed leave days. If necessary, adjust the policy to accommodate more leave days.
  Verify Leave Requests: Review the employee's leave requests to ensure that they are accurate. If there are any errors, correct them.
  Manager Approval: If the additional leave is necessary, the manager may need to approve an exception to the policy, if allowed. This may involve adjusting the configuration or providing a special approval process.
