• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRWPC_REQ024 - Job data derived from the position conflicts with the job data entered ?

  The SAP error message HRWPC_REQ024 indicates that there is a conflict between the job data that has been derived from the position and the job data that has been manually entered in the system. This typically occurs in the context of Human Capital Management (HCM) when managing employee data, particularly in the area of position management and job data maintenance.
  Cause:
  
  Position vs. Job Data Mismatch: The job data (such as job title, job classification, or other attributes) that is automatically derived from the position assigned to the employee does not match the job data that has been manually entered.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that dictate how job data is derived from positions, and these settings may not align with the manual entries.
  Data Entry Errors: There could be typographical errors or incorrect data entries made by users when entering job data.
  Changes in Position: If the position has been changed or updated after the job data was entered, this could lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Job Data and Position Data: Check the job data that has been entered manually and compare it with the data derived from the position. Identify the specific fields that are causing the conflict.
  Correct the Data: 
  
  If the derived data from the position is correct, update the manually entered job data to match it.
  If the manually entered job data is correct, you may need to adjust the position data or configuration settings to ensure consistency.
  
  
  Check Configuration Settings: Review the configuration settings in the SAP system related to position management and job data to ensure they are set up correctly.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on how to resolve conflicts between position and job data.
