Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRTIM_ABS_REQ114 - Absence cannot be partial-day, so times have been removed. ?

  The SAP error message HRTIM_ABS_REQ114 indicates that there is an issue with the way an absence request is being processed in the system. Specifically, it means that the absence cannot be recorded as a partial day, and as a result, the system has removed the time entries associated with that absence.
  Cause:
  
  
  Absence Type Configuration: The absence type you are trying to use may be configured in such a way that it does not allow partial-day entries. This is often the case for certain absence types that are meant to be taken in full days only (e.g., vacation days, sick leave).
  
  
  Time Entry Issues: The time entries associated with the absence request may not align with the rules set for that absence type. For example, if the absence type is set to require full-day entries, any attempt to enter a partial day will trigger this error.
  
  
  Employee's Work Schedule: The employee's work schedule may not support partial-day absences, especially if the absence is being requested for a time that does not match the standard working hours.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Absence Type Configuration: Review the configuration of the absence type in the SAP system. Ensure that it is set up to allow partial-day entries if that is the desired functionality. This can typically be done by an HR administrator or someone with the appropriate access rights.
  
  
  Adjust Time Entries: If the absence type does not allow partial days, you will need to adjust the time entries to reflect a full day. This may involve changing the start and end times of the absence request to cover a full working day.
  
  
  Consult with HR: If you are unsure about the absence type configuration or how to proceed, consult with your HR department or the SAP system administrator. They can provide guidance on the correct procedures and configurations.
  
  
  Review Work Schedule: Ensure that the employee's work schedule is correctly set up to accommodate the type of absence being requested. If the employee is on a flexible schedule, ensure that the absence request aligns with their working hours.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  SAP Notes and Documentation: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to absence management. SAP's help documentation may also provide insights into how absence types are configured and managed.
  
  
  User Training: Ensure that employees are trained on how to correctly submit absence requests in the SAP system, including understanding the types of absences available and their associated rules.
  
  
  System Updates: If the issue persists, it may be worth checking if there are any recent updates or patches to the SAP system that could affect absence management functionality.
  
  
  By addressing the configuration and ensuring compliance with the rules set for absence types, you should be able to resolve the error message HRTIM_ABS_REQ114.
