• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU_BEN087 - Only one Social Benefit could be active at same time. ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU_BEN087 indicates that there is a restriction in the system that allows only one social benefit to be active at the same time for a specific employee or case. This is typically related to the configuration of social benefits in the SAP system, particularly in the context of the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Settings: The system is configured to allow only one active social benefit for a given employee. This is often a business rule that reflects the organization's policy or legal requirements.
  Data Entry Issues: There may be multiple social benefits that have been incorrectly entered or activated for the same employee, leading to a conflict.
  Program Logic: The underlying logic in the program that processes social benefits may be designed to prevent multiple benefits from being active simultaneously.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Active Benefits: Check the employee's record to see which social benefits are currently active. You can do this through the relevant infotype (e.g., Infotype 0171 for social benefits).
  Deactivate Unnecessary Benefits: If there are multiple benefits active, deactivate the ones that are not needed. This can usually be done through the SAP GUI by navigating to the relevant infotype and making the necessary changes.
  Configuration Check: If the business rules allow for multiple benefits to be active, consult with your SAP HCM configuration team to review the settings. They may need to adjust the configuration to allow for multiple active benefits if that aligns with business requirements.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to social benefits configuration for any specific guidelines or updates that may affect this behavior.
  Testing: After making changes, test the scenario to ensure that the error does not reoccur and that the system behaves as expected.
