  The SAP error message HRPFD00868 indicates that the number range object HRPKBUNUM is not maintained. This typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) module operations, particularly when dealing with personnel numbers or other HR-related identifiers.
  Cause:
  The error arises when the system attempts to generate or assign a number (such as a personnel number) using a number range object that has not been properly configured or maintained. This can happen if:
  
  The number range object has not been defined in the system.
  The number range intervals for the object have not been set up.
