• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TPM_THX1215 - Transfer cannot be reversed because position is used in HR &1 ?

  The SAP error message TPM_THX1215 indicates that a transfer cannot be reversed because the position in question is currently being used in Human Resources (HR). This typically occurs in the context of personnel administration or organizational management where a position is linked to an employee or a specific HR transaction.

  Position in Use: The position you are trying to reverse is actively being used in HR-related transactions, such as employee assignments, payroll, or other HR processes.

  Unassigning employees from the position.
  Completing or reversing any related HR actions.
  
  
  Consult HR Team: If you are unsure about the implications of unassigning a position or if there are complex dependencies, consult with your HR team or SAP HR module expert.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes (like PA20 for displaying HR master data or PPOSE for organizational management) to investigate the current status of the position.
  Re-attempt Transfer Reversal: Once you have ensured that the position is no longer in use, attempt to reverse the transfer again.
