  The SAP error message HRPIQNL01028, which states "Missing authorization: Centrally verified data cannot be modified," typically occurs in the context of SAP HR (Human Resources) or SAP SuccessFactors when a user attempts to modify data that is considered centrally verified or controlled. This often relates to data that is managed at a higher level or requires specific authorizations to change.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the necessary authorizations to modify centrally verified data. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
  Data Integrity Rules: The system is designed to protect certain data from being modified to maintain data integrity. This is common for data that is critical or sensitive.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to restrict modifications to certain fields or data types, especially in a multi-client environment.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system. Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to modify the specific data.

  Use Appropriate Transactions:
  
  Ensure that the user is using the correct transaction codes or applications to make the changes. Some data may only be modifiable through specific transactions.
