  Delimitation of Account: The account referenced in the error message has been delimited, meaning that its validity period has ended. This can happen if the account was set to be valid only for a specific time frame and that time frame has passed.

  Check Account Validity: Review the account in question to determine its validity period. You can do this by navigating to the relevant configuration or master data transaction in SAP (e.g., transaction code OKEQ for cost centers).
  Reassign Personnel Numbers: If the account is no longer valid, you may need to reassign the affected personnel numbers to a valid account. This can be done through the personnel administration transactions (e.g., PA30 for maintaining HR master data).
  Adjust Validity Dates: If the delimitation was not intended, you may need to adjust the validity dates of the account to ensure it remains active for the required personnel numbers.
  Consult with HR/Finance Team: If you are unsure about the changes or the implications of the delimitation, consult with your HR or finance team to understand the business processes and ensure compliance with organizational policies.
