  The SAP error message /SHCM/EMPLOYEE_BL100 indicates that there are two different "CP" (which typically stands for "Customer Profile" or "Contract Profile") linked to the same employee in the system. This situation can arise in various contexts, particularly in Human Capital Management (HCM) or Employee Management modules.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entries: The employee has been assigned to two different contract profiles (P-CP and CP-BP) in the system.

  Solution:
  
  Identify the Profiles: Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to check the relevant tables (e.g., PA0001, PA0002) to identify the profiles linked to the employee.
  Review Employee Data: Go to the employee's master data and check the assigned profiles. You can do this using transaction PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data).

  Deleting the incorrect profile assignment.
  Updating the employee's data to ensure only one profile is active.
  
  
  Consult with HR or Data Management Team: If you are unsure about which profile to keep, consult with the HR department or the team responsible for employee data management.
