• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPDV_SERVICES068 - Time constraint not maintained for &1 &2 &3 ?

  The SAP error message HRPDV_SERVICES068 indicates that there is a time constraint issue related to a specific infotype in the Human Resources (HR) module. This error typically arises when the system expects a time constraint to be defined for a particular infotype, but it is not maintained in the configuration.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  An infotype (e.g., 0001 for Organizational Assignment, 0002 for Personal Data, etc.) is being processed, and the system checks for time constraints.
  The time constraint for the specified infotype is not defined in the system configuration.
  The infotype is being processed in a way that requires a time constraint, but the necessary settings are missing.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Infotype Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SPRO (SAP Reference IMG).
  Navigate to Personnel Management -> Personnel Administration -> Infotypes -> Define Time Constraints.
  Check the time constraints for the infotype that is causing the error (indicated by &1, &2, &3 in the error message). Ensure that the time constraints are properly defined.
  
  
  
  Maintain Time Constraints:
  
  If the time constraints are not maintained, you will need to define them. This involves specifying the validity periods for the infotype records.
  Ensure that the time constraints align with your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Check for Customizations:
  
  If your organization has custom infotypes or modifications, ensure that they are correctly configured and that any necessary time constraints are defined.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the infotype processing again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the correct time constraints to set, consult SAP documentation or your organization's HR configuration guidelines.
