  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SHCM/EMPLOYEE_BL023 - Employee &1 has been deleted sucessfully. ?

    The SAP error message /SHCM/EMPLOYEE_BL023 indicates that the employee record you are trying to access or manipulate has been successfully deleted from the system. This message is not necessarily an error in the traditional sense, but rather an informational message indicating that the action you attempted (such as viewing or editing the employee record) cannot be completed because the employee has been deleted.

    Cause:

    1. Employee Deletion: The primary cause of this message is that the employee record has been deleted from the SAP system. This could happen due to various reasons, such as:
      • The employee has left the organization.
      • Data cleanup processes that remove inactive or obsolete records.
      • Manual deletion by an administrator or HR personnel.

    Solution:

    1. Verify Employee Status: Check if the employee record was indeed deleted. You can do this by:

      • Searching for the employee in the system using their employee ID or other identifying information.
      • Checking the relevant infotypes (e.g., IT0000, IT0001) to see if the employee exists.
    2. Restore Employee Record: If the deletion was accidental and you need to restore the employee record:

      • If you have a backup or an archive of employee data, you may be able to restore the record from there.
      • Consult with your SAP administrator or HR department to see if there is a process in place for restoring deleted records.
    3. Create a New Employee Record: If the employee is no longer with the organization and you need to create a new record for a different employee:

      • Use the appropriate transaction code (e.g., PA40 for personnel actions) to create a new employee record.
    4. Check for Related Processes: If the deletion was part of a larger process (like a mass data update or cleanup), ensure that all related processes are completed and that there are no further actions required.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PA20 (Display HR Master Data), PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data), and PA40 (Personnel Actions) for managing employee records.
    • Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view or manipulate employee records in SAP.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for handling employee records and deletions.

    If you continue to encounter issues or if the deletion was unexpected, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or HR department for further assistance.
