• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRSFEC_SERVICES065 - Unallowed overlap found for infotype &1 in period (&2 - &3) ?

  The SAP error message HRSFEC_SERVICES065 indicates that there is an unallowed overlap for a specific infotype in the specified period. This typically occurs when there are conflicting records for the same infotype that overlap in time, which is not allowed in SAP's data model.
  Cause:
  
  Overlapping Records: The most common cause of this error is that there are existing records in the specified infotype that overlap with the new record you are trying to create or modify. For example, if you are trying to enter a new employment record that starts on a date that overlaps with an existing record, this error will be triggered.
  Incorrect Date Ranges: The start and end dates of the new record may not be set correctly, leading to overlaps with existing records.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual data entry errors can also lead to overlaps, such as entering the same date for multiple records.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Records: Review the existing records for the specified infotype within the given date range. You can do this by using transaction codes like PA20 (Display HR Master Data) or PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) to check for any overlapping records.
  Adjust Dates: If you find overlapping records, you may need to adjust the start and end dates of the new record or the existing records to eliminate the overlap.
  Delete or Modify Conflicting Records: If the existing records are no longer needed or are incorrect, consider deleting or modifying them to resolve the conflict.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's HR data management guidelines to ensure that you are following the correct procedures for entering data.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Infotypes are data structures in SAP that store specific types of information about employees (e.g., personal data, organizational assignment, payroll data). Each infotype has its own rules regarding date validity and overlaps.
  Date Validity: Each infotype record has a validity period defined by a start date and an end date. SAP enforces rules to prevent overlapping records to maintain data integrity.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes for HR data management, such as PA20, PA30, and PA40 (for actions).
  
  If you continue to experience issues after checking for overlaps and adjusting records, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP HR module administrator or support team for further assistance.
