  Verify Employment Status: Check the employee's current employment status in the system. If the employee is indeed active, confirm whether the action you are trying to perform is appropriate.
  Change Employment Status: If you need to terminate or change the employee's status, ensure that you follow the correct procedures to change their status to inactive (e.g., termination, leave of absence).
  Consult HR Policies: Review your organization's HR policies to ensure compliance with the procedures for changing employment status.
  Use Correct Transaction: Make sure you are using the correct transaction code or process for the action you are trying to perform. For example, if you are trying to terminate an employee, use the appropriate termination transaction.
