  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPIQ00ST_E102 - Relationship to Organizational Unit &1 exists from &2 to &3 ?

    The SAP error message HRPIQ00ST_E102 indicates that there is an existing relationship between a person (employee) and an organizational unit that is valid for a specific time period. The message typically appears in the context of personnel administration or organizational management when trying to create or modify a relationship that overlaps with an existing one.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when:

    • You are trying to create a new relationship (e.g., assigning an employee to an organizational unit) that conflicts with an existing relationship.
    • The existing relationship is valid from a start date (&2) to an end date (&3), and the new relationship you are trying to create overlaps with this period.
    • The organizational structure in SAP is designed to prevent overlapping relationships to maintain data integrity.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Existing Relationships:

      • Use transaction code PPOME (or PPOSE) to view the organizational structure and check the existing relationships for the employee in question.
      • Identify the existing relationship that is causing the conflict.
    2. Adjust Dates:

      • If the new relationship is intended to start before the existing one ends, you may need to adjust the start date of the new relationship or the end date of the existing one.
      • Ensure that the new relationship does not overlap with the existing one.
    3. Delete or Modify Existing Relationship:

      • If the existing relationship is no longer valid or needed, consider deleting it or modifying its dates to allow for the new relationship to be created.
      • Be cautious when deleting relationships, as this may affect reporting and other organizational structures.
    4. Consult with HR or Organizational Management:

      • If you are unsure about the implications of changing relationships, consult with your HR department or the team responsible for organizational management to ensure that changes align with business processes.
    5. Use Correct Transaction Codes:

      • Ensure you are using the correct transaction codes for creating or modifying relationships, such as PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) or PO10 (Maintain Organizational Unit).

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes like PPOME, PPOSE, PA30, and PO10 for managing organizational structures and employee data.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on managing organizational relationships and understanding the implications of changes.
    • User Roles: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to organizational relationships in SAP.
