Duplicate check on personal id (00185)

Question

Hey Experts,
Is there a way to activate a check in 0185 (personal id) that checks if an employee has a similar id under his 0185?
example:
employee 0001 has 0185 maintained with passport # 123456, we have hired employee 0002, now while creating his/hers 00185 we entered the same number for the passport. (ie 123456) now the outcome should be that a warning should pop up stating that this passport number is under some other employees name. therefore a check for no duplications.
any advice?
Regards.

Hi Rana,
In my limited knowledge II am not sure if a standard config exists for your requirement.
Probably you can use ZXPADU02 user exit to check from your table PA 0185 if a similar record exists. If not then you can allow the User to save it or else you can throw an error message stating the same.
DATA: wa_0185 like P0185.
CALL METHOD CL_HR_PNNNN_TYPE_CAST->PRELP_TO_PNNNN
EXPORTING
PRELP = INNNN
IMPORTING
PNNNN = wa_0185.
Select single *
  from pa0185
  where subty = wa_0185-subty
       and ID = wa_1085-ID
if sy-subrc NE 0.
Throw an error message.
exit.
endif.
CALL METHOD CL_HR_PNNNN_TYPE_CAST->PNNNN_TO_PRELP
EXPORTING
PNNNN = wa_0185
IMPORTING
PRELP = INNNN.
Wait for other experts to comment if they have a better solution before you try this out.
cheers
