• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPFD00201 - You can select no more than one personnel number ?

  The SAP error message HRPFD00201, which states "You can select no more than one personnel number," typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) processes when a user attempts to perform an action that is restricted to a single personnel number but has selected multiple personnel numbers instead.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Selections: The most common cause of this error is that the user has selected more than one personnel number in a transaction or report that only allows for a single personnel number.
  Transaction Restrictions: Certain transactions in SAP HR are designed to operate on a single employee record at a time, and attempting to process multiple records can trigger this error.
  User Input Error: The user may have inadvertently selected multiple personnel numbers due to a misunderstanding of the interface or the selection criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  Select a Single Personnel Number: Review your selection criteria and ensure that you are only selecting one personnel number. If you need to process multiple personnel numbers, you may need to run the transaction multiple times, once for each personnel number.
  Check Transaction Guidelines: Refer to the documentation or guidelines for the specific transaction you are using to confirm whether it supports multiple personnel numbers.
  Use Batch Processing: If you need to perform actions on multiple personnel numbers, consider using batch processing transactions or reports that are designed for handling multiple records, if available.
  Review User Permissions: Ensure that your user role has the necessary permissions to perform the intended action, as sometimes restrictions can be related to user roles.
  
  Related Information:
