• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPIQ00STUDENT_BP108 - Cannot create student for BP &1 because date of death is specified ?

  The SAP error message HRPIQ00STUDENT_BP108 indicates that there is an issue with creating a student record for a Business Partner (BP) because a date of death has been specified for that BP. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Human Capital Management (HCM) or Student Lifecycle Management (SLC) modules.
  Cause:
  The error arises when the system detects that the Business Partner (BP) you are trying to create a student record for has a date of death entered in the system. In SAP, if a date of death is specified for a person, the system assumes that the individual is no longer active and therefore does not allow the creation of new records (like a student record) for that individual.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Business Partner Data:
  
  Go to the Business Partner transaction (e.g., BP) and check the details of the Business Partner in question.
  Look for the "Date of Death" field in the personal data section.
  
  
  
  Remove or Update the Date of Death:
  
  If the date of death is incorrect or if the individual is still alive, you can remove or update the date of death field.
  If the individual has indeed passed away, you will need to consider whether creating a student record is appropriate.
  
  
  
  Consult with Relevant Stakeholders:
  
  If you are unsure about the status of the individual, consult with HR or the relevant department to confirm whether the date of death is accurate.
  
  
  
  Create a New Student Record:
  
  Once the date of death has been addressed, attempt to create the student record again.
