Summary :
Reports RPUDEL20, RPUP2D00, and RPUP2D10, initially intended for debugging and inconsistent payroll result corrections, have been misused in production environments, causing data loss. These reports do not perform consistency checks on dependent tables or necessary subsequent actions following deletions, despite warnings and documentation highlights. SAP mandates using Transaction PU01 for payroll deletions in production systems as it conducts necessary verifications. The mentioned reports should only be operated under SAP support directives due to their potential to bypass safety checks and cause irreversible data losses. Modifications and use restrictions are provided in the correction instructions.

Key words :
reports issue clear warning messages, 'delete current payroll result', destroy payroll data completely, data losses occur regularly, delete specific payroll results, data losses occur, delete payroll results, executes proper checks, source code corrections, message class 3g
