• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SLS060 - No HR RFC connection maintained in settings ?

  The SAP error message SLS060: No HR RFC connection maintained in settings typically occurs when there is an issue with the configuration of the Remote Function Call (RFC) connection for Human Resources (HR) data in the SAP system. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid RFC connection to the HR system, which is necessary for certain HR-related functionalities.
  Cause:
  
  Missing RFC Connection: The most common cause is that the RFC connection to the HR system has not been defined or is missing in the configuration.
  Incorrect Configuration: The RFC connection may be defined but incorrectly configured, leading to connection issues.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the RFC connection.
  Network Issues: There could be network-related issues preventing the connection to the HR system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the SLS060 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check RFC Connection:
  
  Go to transaction code SM59 in the SAP GUI.
  Look for the RFC connection that is supposed to connect to the HR system (it may be named something like HRRFC or similar).
  Ensure that the connection is defined and active.
  
  
  
  Create or Maintain RFC Connection:
  
  If the RFC connection does not exist, create a new one.
  If it exists but is not configured correctly, edit the connection settings to ensure they are correct (e.g., target host, system number, client, user credentials).
  
  
  
  Test the RFC Connection:
  
  In transaction SM59, select the RFC connection and click on the "Connection Test" button to verify that the connection is working properly.
  If the test fails, check the error messages for more details on what might be wrong.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to use the RFC connection. This may involve checking roles and profiles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Network Configuration:
  
  If the RFC connection is correctly set up but still fails, check for any network issues that might be preventing the connection (e.g., firewall settings, network routing).
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of SAP you are using for any additional configuration steps or troubleshooting tips.
